Let’s Talk about Birth Differently.

Giving birth can be an incredibly positive life event. I help you unlearn the fear, build real confidence, and plan a birth that actually fits your values.

Hi, I’m Kayla Mackenzie—a birth mentor and doula offering in-person care in Utah County and virtual support beyond.

Meet with Me!

Who I Support

I offer mentorship and doula support for parents who want more than a clinical experience. Whether you're preparing for your first birth or seeking healing after a difficult one, we are a good fit if:

  • You believe birth is a major life event—not a medical procedure—and you are ready to create a beautiful memory.

  • You’re willing to go against the flow to create the birth experience you want and you want a strong advocate for your values and preferences.

  • You’re planning your first unmedicated birth.

  • You’ve had a traumatic or disempowering birth and are determined to do things differently this time.

  • "Having your help and support made me feel so much more prepared and confident in the whole process. I will always greatly appreciate the physical and mental support you gave me during birth. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!

    Kenadee, 1st time mom

  • Kaila was my doula for my second baby. In comparison to my first, my labor was much easier and much shorter, I felt much happier and confident, and my recovery was much easier. I largely attribute that to Kaila. She was very attentive, she knew exactly was to do even when I didn’t know what I wanted, and she helped my husband be much more involved and confident. I would absolutely recommend working with her!

    Grace, 2nd time mom

  • As the husband in the room, I VERY much appreciated Kaila. She was great at knowing what to do when to best help my wife and keep me involved. As a husband, I wanted to help during our first baby's birth but felt like I never knew quite what to do to be the most helpful. Having Kaila there the 2nd time was great. Loved every bit of the process and felt like her services were money well spent!

    Masyn, 2nd time dad

  • Kaila is an incredible doula! She has helped me with my second baby and just having her there for support and empowerment has made such a difference! She’s knowledgeable, understanding, and a great listener. I would highly recommend her to anyone needing any doula services.

    Cathryn, 2nd time mom

  • Kaila is an incredible doula! She made the birth I'd dreamed of a reality. As someone who has now given birth both with an epidural and without one, this experience was far better. Kaila helped me so much through the experience. I'm so grateful we found her! I couldn't have given birth unmedicated without her.

    Lexi, 2nd time mom

Why I do this work:

I believe giving birth is one of the most important transitions in a woman’s life—on par with a wedding day or any other profound rite of passage. And yet, far too many women are disempowered or even traumatized on the threshold of motherhood.

After walking my own birth journey, I realized just how positive, awe-inspiring, and empowering birth can be. I became a doula and birth mentor to help more women experience what I know is possible—rather than the disconnection and dismissal so many have faced.

I support women in preparing for births that leave them amazed by their own strength, grounded in self-trust, and ready to step into motherhood with confidence.
