DPT

Offered care at the VNFC outreach clinic in Victoria as a clinical herbalist. I provided holistic, trauma-informed, and culturally respectful support using plant medicine to address physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being, with a focus on accessible and collaborative healing.
My birth doula packages range from $1,350–$1,900, depending on the level of support you choose. Sliding scale options ($1,000–$1,350) are available to help make this essential support more accessible and equitable for all birthing families and individuals. Postpartum care is offered at $40/hour for daytime support (3-hour minimum)

Post a testimonial for Makaila Budd, Dip.Phyt
7/16/2025
“Having Makaila with us during the birth of our baby was truly a blessing. From the moment labor began, she brought a calm, grounding energy that helped me stay focused and empowered. Her encouragement, gentle coaching, and hands-on support gave me the strength to keep going, even in the most intense moments. She worked beautifully alongside my partner and the medical staff, always making sure I felt heard and respected. I couldn’t have asked for a more compassionate and skilled doula. Makaila made our birth experience one I will always remember with gratitude.”
