About me

Hi, I’m Kaila (pronounced like Kayla). I’m a certified birth and postpartum doula serving Utah County. I became a doula to help more people look back on labor and delivery with satisfaction and transition into parenthood with confidence . As a trained birth doula, I help each client create a birth story that will inspire her throughout her life. Every birth is unique, and I am here to support, to educate, and to celebrate with you as you welcome a new life into your world, however you decide to do it. This is your experience, and I want you to feel confident in the driver's seat. As a certified postpartum doula, I watch over the physical and emotional recovery of a mother after birth. I also help families to navigate life with a newborn baby. Postpartum is hard, but you don’t have to figure it out alone. I’m here to help! I can’t wait to meet you and your family!

Service introduction

Kayla Mackenzie – Birth Mentor & Doula Serving Utah County and surrounding areas I work with women who want more from birth—whether you’re healing from a previous traumatic experience or preparing for your next birth as a deeply personal rite of passage. As a birth mentor and certified doula, I support you through the entire childbearing journey with honesty, reverence, and a fierce respect for your intuition. My approach blends trauma-informed care with values-based planning so you can feel safe, seen, and in control. My services include: • Birth Doula Support: Continuous, grounded support during labor and birth. I help you stay connected to your body and your choices—at home, in a hospital, or at a birth center. • Birth After Trauma: Whether your last birth left you feeling unseen, unsafe, or overwhelmed, I provide space to process, rebuild trust, and prepare for a new experience on your terms. • Values-Based Birth Planning: Together, we design a plan that reflects your values, boundaries, and goals—so you’re not just “going with the flow,” you’re leading the way. • Preconception Mentorship: Thoughtful support for couples who want to prepare emotionally and relationally before trying to conceive. I believe birth changes you—and it should. Let’s make space for that transformation in a way that honors your whole self: body, mind, and spirit

Kaila was my doula for my second baby. I had a traumatic experience with my first baby, so I really wanted someone to help me cope with my second. Kaila was exactly what I needed! She is knowledgeable, personable, and really listened to my needs. She respected all of my decisions and did everything she could to help me have the birth that I always desired. I would highly recommend Kaila to any woman looking for an incredible doula!

Frequently asked questions

Do you support hospital births with epidurals?

Absolutely! I will support you regardless of where you choose to give birth or which methods of pain relief you use.

Do you support home births?

Yes I do! I am trained to support unmedicated, as well as medicated births.

What is the difference between a midwife and a doula?

This is one of the questions I get asked most frequently about my role as a doula. A midwife’s main role in birth is medical. She helps ensure that mom and baby are well prenatally. Typically, she arrives in your birthing place once labor is in the home stretch and attends the birth to observe mom and baby for any signs of complications. After baby is born, she checks to make sure baby and mom are both healthy and thriving. My role as a doula is primarily focused on the birthing woman’s experience. I meet with parents prenatally to help them plan and prepare to give birth the way they want to. I help them overcome concerns or anxieties surrounding birth, and help them learn their options when it comes to birthing choices. I attend the birth to support the parents in having an experience that is positive and empowering by offering physical, emotional, and informational support. Typically, I show up to your birthing place well before the midwives, and may even help you decide when it is time to call them. After you give birth, I help ensure that you are comfortable and supported, and visit with you postnatally to process your birth experience. In summary: a midwife tends to your health, a doula tends to your experience.

Do you serve my area?

If you live within an hour’s commute of Spanish Fork, UT, then, yes! I serve your area!

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes! I want to make my services as accessible as possible. We can work together to create a payment plan that works for your family.

Do you accept HSA?

Yes! You can pay for your birth doula support package with HSA/FSA.

Will my partner still play an active roll in supporting me if I hire you?

Absolutely! In fact, a large part of my role is to help your partner know how to help you during the birth process. In our prenatal visits, I help them to prepare to be the best possible labor support. Then, during labor and birth, I am there to guide them so that they never feel helpless or unsure what to do. I am there for them as much as I am for you!

How do you work with my healthcare provider?

I want to make sure your birth team is united and communicating well so that you get the best possible care. As a doula, I work alongside your healthcare provider to complement their medical care. I do not provide medical advice or interventions but focus on making sure that you are communicating well with your medical team, advocate for your needs, and provide physical and emotional support throughout labor.

Will you advocate for me within the medical system?

Yes, I will do everything in my power to protect your right to informed consent and help you get the care you desire. You have the most powerful voice in the room, so my main goal is to help you advocate for yourself. We’ll work on your advocacy skills during prenatal visits and birth education classes, and I will help you implement them in the birth room.
