my doula journey

MY STORY

I honestly "never knew what I wanted to be when I grew up." I was a flight attendant, a bartender, I climbed the corporate ladder in finance. Trying to find my way to happiness. It wasn't until I attended my sisters homebirth that I had my "aha" moment.

During her labor I watched her be surrounded by women. She was vulnerable, she was working hard, and she was being encouraged and loved. She was cared for. She felt safe. She was a warrior! She was the only thing that mattered in the room (as it should be!)

My corporate job had me crying daily. It just wasn't the fit. I caught myself thinking back to my sister's birth often...and one night, I googled a 'doula'. It made all the sense in the world that this what I was meant to do!

I trained at the most beautiful farm with Mothertree International. I have read as many birth, breastfeeding, and postpartum books I can get my hands on. On my free time I listen to birth podcasts? Why? Because I love it.

Being a Doula is the most fulfilling, amazing, and awe-inspiring journey that I actually get to call "my job." My clients and I have meaningful relationships. Every birth I have attended impacts me, and I hold those life-changing moments close to my heart. Anytime I am hired to be with my clients in their sacred space its an honor and pleasure.

Now when I cry after work, it's because I'm getting to do my dream job, and for that I will always be grateful. To my past clients- thank you. To my prospective clients- I can't wait to meet you!

MY PHILOSOPHY

I truly believe that birth and postpartum experience is the most life-changing time for a couple. How parents feel in their birth process matters, and as their doula I am there to help them have a positive birth experience!

As part of their birth team, I am there to bring peace, joy, and comfort to each parent meeting their baby. My commitment is that client's voice is heard and their sacred space is protected.

A birthing couple deserves to feel loved and cared for as they do this work to meet their baby. Moms deserve to feel safe during their birth experience and it's my goal to bring trust and care to every client's birth so they can have the most empowering experience.

What Clients Say...

Aubrey

“The first time I talked to Sophia, I immediately knew she was genuine and wanted the best for me and our family. We immediately hired her as our postpartum doula! I felt heard, supported, and informed. Sophia offered a grace that all new mothers deserve to feel right after giving birth. I cannot recommend Sophia enough”

Erica M.

“This past fall I had the pleasure of getting to know Sophia as a doula for my husband and I. Sophia worked to meet our unique needs and exceeded all of our expectations. Our birth and postpartum experience was greatly enhanced by Sophia and her expertise as someone who cares for mothers, babies, and families. Sophia prepared us, guided us, supported us, advocated for us, and cheered us on at every turn. I can confidently say that Ms. Flath would make a wonderful addition to anyone's birth experience and I wish that everyone was lucky enough to have her in their birthing corner.”

Amy T.

"We LOVE Sophia! As first time parents, we knew absolutely nothing. Sophia made us feel comfortable, confident, and safe. She helped answered all of our questions, and supported me through the birth process and post partum. I wouldn't be the mom I am today without her. Thank you Sophia!"

Nathan

"Sophia is incredible at what she does. Motherly, knowledgeable, supportive, and trustworthy. My wife and I were expecting our first child, and we really wanted a resource to help us prepare/support us through the delivery process. We found everything we were looking for with Sophia and more. If you are wondering if it's worth it, it is."

Kelley M.

"Hiring Sophia as my doula was one of the best decisions I made for my pregnancy! With my first baby, I wanted to go unmedicated but struggled through a very long, high intervention induction. I knew I didn't want that experience again and wanted more support. Sophia helped support me throughout a "high risk" pregnancy, and as a direct result I ended up having everything I wanted for my second birth! I had many ups and downs and things working against me and my desire for an unmedicated birth, and I can honestly say I wouldn't have been able to get past them all without Sophia. She is the sweetest, most caring and kind woman ever. She really listens to you and your needs, and does everything she can to meet you where you need it. She truly has a heart for motherhood and to serve women in their most emotionally and physically vulnerable times."

Kayla

"Hands down the best decision I made during my pregnancy was hiring Sophia as our doula! The education, empowerment, and emotional support that she provided was invaluable. She had such a great way of connecting with each person involved in our birth and thinks of everything to be the best support person. After having such a great experience with her as our birth doula (even hospital staff mentioned how amazing she was), we knew we needed her as our postpartum doula and trusted her 100% with our newborn. I would encourage anyone considering having a doula to reach out to Sophia. I can't imagine what my experience would have been without her, we are so deeply grateful."

Looking forward to our consultation and hearing all about your hopes for your birth. I’m here for you every step of the way!
