Doula support is important thats why my services are uniquely tailored to you and your needs. Doulas are not one size fits all and there is a doula for everyone. When you hire a doula you are not just hiring a professional, you are hiring someone who you can feel comfortable with in your most vulnerable moments. Someone you can call if doubts or questions cant escape your mind. When you hire me as your doula you get someone who has not only experienced the gift of having a doula herself helping me to better understand your needs, you also get someone who spent almost a decade in the medical field as a very experienced nurse with critical emergency response skills. Someone who has attended a multitude of births beyond being a doula, who has experience with natural birth, unassisted home birth, VBAC, VB2C, Twin birth, breach birth, adoption, surrogacy, and all types of providers. I have personal experience with teen pregnancy and feel I know what it takes to be a great advocate for respect and fair treatment when it comes to the pregnancy and birth of your baby. I also have personal experience with surrogate birth, having been a surrogate myself I truly understand all of the ins and outs of surrogacy and the different support needed from both perspectives. not only will I be able to fully support the surrogate in her time if need but I am also there to fully support the IP'(s) throughout their journey to becoming parent(s). All while supporting you through labor and birth I am available to photograph every detail worth remembering forever. I have a masters in photography and always find great joy in capturing these beautiful moments leading up to you meeting the little one you've waited a lifetime to meet and beyond birth into the first few weeks earthside. I would love the opportunity to meet you and support you through this journey!!
Postpartum fees are based on a hourly rate. A minimum of 9 shifts may be booked at any set time with no maximum number of shifts. We will discuss shift days and start times at your booking appointment.

Post a testimonial for Haley Garza: The Humbled Doula
11/10/2023
Haley is such a gem. I don't know what we would have done without her! She visited our home several nights a week for 6 weeks to help with my newborn whom she took great care of. Not only did she take wonderful care of my baby, she was there for me postpartum both in-person and via phone (calls/texts). She answered all of my questions whether it be about my baby or breastfeeding. I am beyond happy with my decision to hire Haley to help us. I wish we could have her around to help all the time! I will certainly call Haley up when we're preparing to have our next child!

My experience with Hailey was absolutely amazing, when I needed her the most she was there for me. We did an attempted home birth, but baby's foot came out first!! And due to safety concerns we called 911 right away. Hailey rode with me and helped hold my legs becuase baby was still coming and was born mostly in the ambulance somewhat in the hallway of the er, it was the wildest birth I've ever had, in the er the nurses and doctors were yelling to put me on anti nausea medications something I did not need or ask for and I yelled no meds. And Hailey made sure they listened, reminding them I said no meds. She made sure they left the cord long to give my baby as much of that valuable cord blood as possible. And advocated for us to leave when we were ready too. She is the real deal doula and knows what she is doing assisted with labor pain through applied pressure before the water broke as well. Definenlty book with her.

After 2 c sections from big baby's I was desperate to try for VBA2C, after find the right OB to honor my wishes they highly recommended I get A doula. After research I found Haley & she succeeded all my expectations. She was absolutely amazing; we even got a birth photographer out of hiring her, after failure to progress I had another c section that she was still able to be there for & even then she went above and beyond for me! I can't Praise or thank her enough for all she did for my family.

With both of my baby girls, Haley was truly the doula I needed throughout the whole process. She educated me on the many ways I can labor. One medicated and one natural. With my first, the postpartum was really hard and she talked me through.. helping me throughout college and taking care of a newborn! She would take the baby, allowing me to catch up on sleep and school work! I highly, highly recommend her!

There's so much to say about Haley so I hope I can make this all fit. She was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. For my post-party's she was there the moment I called until she and I both knew I was ready to be 100% on my own. My husband was deployed when I had my little babe, so Haley had big shoes to fill & she did just that. She did everything from verbally encouraging me through my transition, to physically helping me where I needed it the most. She helped prep my meals for the days to come, she helped with my little one so I could eat on my own, shower or get some time to myself to just breathe. She was extremely understanding, sweet, compassionate & my voice when I needed to be heard. Without her, I'm not sure how my first weeks would have been. She made it so much easier for me to transition into this new role of being a mom. She also took AMAZING newborn pictures of my little babe & they are something that I will forever cherish. The captured every little detail and precious memory of my baby. She was so gentle and excellent with him. During the pictures he never once made a noise and was completely comfortable the entire time. She handled everything so flawlessly from one thing to the next & I couldn't be more grateful for her. When we decide to have another baby, Haley is the first person I am calling ans I would 100% recommend her to any family or friends having a baby. She truly makes your experience one of kind.
