The day she gives birth is one of the most transformative days in a woman's life. I always count it as such a sacred honor to bear witness to and stand by a mother on this singular day. I am a wife and the mother to six amazing children and know first hand what a wonderful (and sometimes hard) experience having a baby and parenthood can be. I have had a variety of birth experiences including a hospital birth, a birth center birth, and four homebirths, with the last one being a waterbirth. As a doula I have experience with births in hospitals and at home, with unmedicated as well as medicated births, with cesareans and VBACs (vaginal birth after cesarean), waterbirths and teen moms as well. I am also a childbirth educator and throughly enjoy sharing my knowledge of and love for birth with the people who take my classes, sit by me at dinner parties or stand behind me in line at the grocery store.

I am a certified childbirth educator through Nurturing Hearts Birth Services.
My central goal is to teach my clients that they can take responsibility for their birth choices through increased knowledge. I enjoy educating couples about the many options available surrounding the birthing process. The course information for my class is compiled from many different sources and birth philosophies including the Lamaze Institute, Dr. Bradley, midwife Ina Mae Gaskin, Henci Goer and others. After my classes, you will have reliable information and facts whereby you can truly make informed decisions.
In addition to being a certified childbirth educator I'm also a doula. I have experience as a Registered Nurse and I have a B.S. in Nursing. I also have had the wonderful opportunity to give birth to my three children at home and have attended several births.
I look forward to working with you. I'm confident that after my classes, you will feel secure in making birth decisions that are right for you.

My name is Julie Stautberg. I became a doula to support women and their partners in the births of their children. I have had the wonderful opportunities to assist at homebirths and hospital births. I continue to look forward to each unique and wonderful experience to be a part of the beginning of the development of a new family. I learned through the birthing of my babies about the inner strength I have as a woman. I believe that strength has helped me to accomplish some of my dreams. I desire to encourage pregnant moms to find that inner strength to accomplish thier dreams and goals not only in birth but in every aspect of thier lives.

I am a wife and mother of one beautiful baby boy. Pregnancy, birth and newborn care have been my life's passion. Empowering women to achieve the birth they want, is a strongly held belief of mine, as is "mothering the mother". To me, doula work is a remarkable honor and a delight. Experiencing the birth of a child, and assisting in easing the path for baby, mother and father, is truly a rewarding and fulfilling event. The birth and parenting of my child has given me valuable insight into the needs of mothers and their families. Providing support and helping a woman feel safe while she births her baby, or nurtures her child at home, is the goal of my doula work.
I'm currently a doula seeking certification from Nurturing Hearts Birth Services. I have completed the Nurturing Hearts Doula training and am now taking clients. I currently serve all cities within the Phoenix Metropolitan area and support both hospital and home births.

Like many who discover a passion for child birth, I began my journey towards becoming a doula when I attended my nephews birth when I was 13 years old. Since then, I have attended a total of 6 births, and have given birth to 4 children of my own. When I became pregnant with my first child, I simply assumed that I would receive prenatal care from an OB/GYN and show up at my local hospital when the moment came to deliver my baby. However, I soon discovered that women have a myriad of choices in how and when and where they can deliver their babies, but unless they are guided, supported, and empowered with knowledge and education, it is impossible to make informed decisions and have an amazing birth experience. It is my calling to help other women have an empowering, safe, and satisfying birth. As a Doula, I am deeply committed to helping you realize all of your birth choices!

I am a wife and mother of 3 beautiful princesses. I love being a mom and I love the experiences that I have had with each of their births that have brought me to being a doula.

I believe in the strength of women! I am honored to be a part of a woman's "team" to help her in her journey through the birth process. I live in Queen Creek, and have been here for two years now. I also hold a birth circle meeting in my local area to help support women through pregnancy, birth and beyond!
