Because you deserve support every step of the way
Welcome! I’m Ravae, your guide to empowered birth.
I’m a doula, childbirth educator for parents, a birth worker mentor & small business consultant for entrepreneurs.
Twenty years ago, my journey began when people did not even know the meaning of the word “doula.” Today, people understand that a doula is a helper, a supporter, and a community builder. I am honored to stand beside growing families and doulas as they find their path in newness.
Using my experiences and wisdom, I partner with doulas and families to grow in their knowledge, gain insight into healthcare systems, and be whole at the end of the journey through intense self-care and business strategy.

Real Stories from Families and Professionals We've Supported
"Ravae was my doula when I delivered my first baby in April 2021. The entire experience was warm and welcoming. Ravae prepared me for pregnancy and labor. She was always available whenever I had questions. I truly appreciated the care she showed me during my pregnancy and delivery. I highly recommend Ravae."

"It's not an overstatement to say that Ravae came into our lives at the most stressful and harrowing moment we had ever experienced as a family. We hired Ravae when my wife ended up in the ICU after the birth of our second child. Her calm demeanor, experience, and professionalism carried us through this time. With less than 24 hours notice, Ravae moved into our home, taking care of me and the baby. We are so grateful that she came into our lives when she did."

"Look no further - working with Ravae is the best decision you'll make. Ravae was a highlight of my entire birth experience. I tell anyone who will listen that we don't know what we (my husband and I) would have done without her. As this was my first child, I didn't know what to expect in labor, and she made me feel calm and prepared from our first meeting, through every contraction, all the way to birth. She felt like family by the end. We hope Ravae will be part of all future births as we look to expand our family."
