Your Doula
Hi, I'm Denisse
“I want you to enter birth feeling prepared and leave it knowing you were heard, respected, and never alone.”
I'm a GROW-certified, DONA-trained birth doula and mother of eight serving families throughout Palm Beach County and Florida's Treasure Coast. My own births have included hospital and home birth, induction, epidural and unmedicated labor, a Cesarean, and a VBAC.
Those experiences taught me how much it matters to feel prepared, respected, and genuinely supported. I combine evidence-based education, hands-on comfort measures, and a calm, steady presence to help you understand your options, communicate your preferences, and prepare your partner to support you confidently.

Client Stories
Families I've Had the Honor to Support
Every birth story is sacred. Here's what families are sharing about their experience with Nest & Flourish.
★★★★★
"Having Denise as my doula throughout my pregnancy was God sent.. I am so grateful to have had the privilege to count on her for any questions or concerns.. she is truly amazing..she answered all my questions, sent me many helpful links, exercises and important information to help me feel more relaxed and ready for labor. She even drove past midnight to be with me during my labor. I will forever be grateful for her."
★★★★★
"I gave birth at the end of May and Denisse was my Doula. She arrived at the hospital before us, and she was there until after birth. She was very helpful and kind and brought us a lot of peace. She was very respectful of what we wanted to do and was very supportive. She had very good communication with the nurses."
★★★★★
"We are so grateful for everything she did for our family and for the love and care she poured into one of the most important days of our lives. If I had to do it all over again, I would hire Denisse again in a heartbeat. I cannot recommend her enough to anyone looking for a doula who is not only incredibly knowledgeable and skilled, but also genuinely kind, compassionate, and dedicated."
★★★★★
"If I have more kids later on in life I hope Denisse is still working as a doula because she knows how to do her job. I have no complaints about her and I couldn't be more happy to have had her as my doula during my first birth. Especially as a teen mom, I'm glad I had someone as understanding as her."
★★★★★
"Denisse is a compassionate and dedicated doula! She was an excellent help during my pregnancy and labor. She went above and beyond especially in helping us with sibling care. She's phenomenal! Above and beyond."
