birth + postpartum doula support
A birth and postpartum doula is a trained professional who provides physical, emotional, and informational support throughout pregnancy, labor, birth, and the early postpartum period. While every pregnancy and birth is unique, one thing remains constant: you deserve to feel supported, informed, and genuinely cared for as you move through this profound transition. At ALLORA, our doula support is rooted in presence, grounded guidance, and a deep trust in your body’s innate wisdom. We hold space for you and your growing family from the very beginning—whether you’re preparing for your first birth, navigating growing your family, or seeking a calm, supported postpartum experience.
Our role is to help you feel empowered, prepared, and connected. We offer evidence-based information, emotional steadiness, comfort techniques, and continuous support that honors both the physiology of birth and the emotional landscape that comes with it. From birth planning to labor support to postpartum nourishment, we walk alongside you with compassion, clarity, and care. Whether you envision an unmedicated birth, plan to use pain management, or simply want a grounded, knowledgeable presence by your side, your doula is here to help you move through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with confidence, connection, and a sense of being truly held.

virtual birth programs
For those who may not be local or in need of in-person support. Whether it is the first birth or fifth- there is unlimited value in having a doula on your side during pregnancy and beyond.
Evidence-based research validates that the involvement of a doula improves birth outcomes, reduces cesarean rates, and provides a more satisfying birth experience.
Feeling overwhelmed and don’t know where to start when it comes to your pregnancy?
“Letters From A Doula” is our virtual program and 10-part email series that supports you through pregnancy. With tips and tricks on what to prepare, meditations to help calm and ease stress, and educational tools from a doula- this program helps keep you on track and is an informative approach for those who don’t need birth support.
letters from a doula program
Crafted to leave you feeling confident about your upcoming birth, The Birth Vision Workshop is a 2hr intensive planning session for those who want the support prenatally instead of throughout the pregnancy. In this planning session, we'll cover the options you have surrounding all aspects of your labor + birth and the evidence-based risks and benefits of each preference. After this workshop, you will leave with a clean understanding and birth vision as well as a birth plan that reflect your goals.
birth vision workshop
Movement matters- especially for pregnant people. In these yoga and movement sessions, we review any specific areas of the mind, body, and soul the pregnant person wishes to focus on. Then we go through a yoga and mediation practice customized to the pregnant persons needs.
For example, class focus can be: focus on spine and back due to added weight of carrying baby, sciatic pain, prepare the lower body and hips to labor, etc.
virtual perinatal movement
This is a donation-based virtual support group open to anyone on their Perinatal Journey (fertility, conception, pregnancy and postpartum) discussions are guided by our signature “Letters From A Doula” Program and have holistic wellness techniques incorporated in each session. All are invited to attend these virtual monthly meetings to connect with others to learn, support and build community.

the nascita ritual
Birth Ritual | Ceremony
The Nascita Ritual or “birth ritual” is a ceremony honoring the mother or pregnant person and their journey into parenthood.
This can replace or be in addition to a traditional baby shower but the pregnant person is the main focus and their closest friend and family gather in celebration of this profound life transition. Nascita Rituals are an intimate and restorative experience where a support system is developed and birth stories + wisdom is shared.
