About Cayla

Originally from Winnipeg, Cayla moved to Calgary in 2011, where she resides with her partner Alex, their two children Parker and Kate, and their big Yorkie, Tom. An enthusiastic urban gardener with a sincere dedication to coffee and espresso making, Cayla eagerly anticipates summers spent exploring Calgary's trails and traveling to nearby campgrounds in her camper trailer.

Beginning her doula journey in 2017, Cayla has had the honour of supporting approximately 250+ families. A strong advocate for continuous learning, she actively engages in ongoing education to elevate her skills and better serve the families she supports. Cayla has a diverse skill set, working as a Birth and Postpartum Doula, Birth Photographer, Lactation Educator, and Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator. Currently pursuing certifications as a Baby-Led Sleep and Well-being specialist and Certified Lactation Counselor, she is committed to expanding her expertise.

Established by Cayla and Jenn in 2020, Welcome Baby Co. embodies their joint passion for supporting families, nurturing community, and providing guidance. Alongside their team, they have assisted over 2000 families with prenatal education, doula support, sleep, and breastfeeding guidance.

Recognizing the individuality of each family's values and preferences during childbirth, Cayla rejects the idea of a singular "right way" to give birth or parent a baby. Instead, she emphasizes the significance of tailored support and guidance. In each client relationship, Cayla strives to create a supportive, empowering, and prepared experience for the journey of pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood. Over the years, she has discovered her true calling and passion in guiding parents during the first few months after birth, offering evidence-based strategies tailored to the normal development and behavior of newborns.

Her dedication to this work is genuinely heartfelt.
