Doula Matchmaking for Birth & Postpartum Care

Welcome to Mindful Mommy Doula, Greater Toronto's Favourite Doula Agency

We connect GTA families with birth, postpartum, and night doulas through our Mindful Match™ process. Since 2017, we’ve matched hundreds of families with doulas from our network of 50+. Each one is vetted, insured, and CPR-certified. Most families get their matches within 24 hours.

Our The Mindful Match™ personalized matchmaking service connects your Ontario family with the right doula based on your personality, values, location, and goals.

  • 50+ Experienced & Vetted Doulas
  • Hundreds of families supported
  • $25 Mindful Match™ Fee (credited toward your doula services when you book)

If we're unable to provide doula matches for your inquiry, we'll refund your Mindful Match™ fee.

Do you have Carrot or insurance benefits for doula support? We've written a helpful guide to documentation and reimbursement for care.

Stop Searching. Start Matching.

You don't have to figure this out alone.

Worried about advocating for yourself in the delivery room?
You want someone in your corner who helps you understand your options, ask the right questions, and make decisions that are actually yours — not just go along with whatever's handed to you in the moment. That's what a birth doula is for.

Wondering what happens once you're actually home?
The hospital sends you home and then... nothing. No manual, no backup, just you and a newborn at 3am. If you're scared of not knowing what to do — or of being alone with it — that's exactly the gap our postpartum and night doulas fill.

Whichever fear is keeping you up at night, The Mindful Match™ finds you the doula who's already handled it hundreds of times before.

"From the communication and matching process to the trust-building and resources provided, it was a game-changer and we loved every part of our experience."

Placenta encapsulation was quick and efficient. They came to me even though I messaged them on such short notice (day I gave birth) and I received the pills 2 days later. Very impressed with your services, Thank you Stephanie!

We were paired with Stephanie Evans through Mindful Mommy and we couldn’t be happier with her services. We booked both prenatal and postpartum support with Steph and she has been wonderful. She is both professional and passionate about providing families with much needed support and care. She is always respectful, helpful, thoughtful, informative, and personable. My family is lucky to have met her!

We have had an amazing experience with our doula Stephanie. From the moment she met with our family, we knew she would be an amazing support system. She provided casual overnight Doula support and it was incredibly helpful during the newborn stage. We have been so impressed with her that we have asked to extend her contract and have her work with our family on a lonterm basis. The process to find our Doula match was easy but still thorough. No complaints, we are so grateful for Stephanie!

“Mindful Mommy Doula was an incredible support throughout my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Their calming presence and mindfulness techniques helped me stay grounded during labor, and they were always there to answer my questions and reassure me. Even after birth, their support made a huge difference in helping me feel more confident and cared for. I highly recommend them to anyone looking for a knowledgeable, compassionate, and truly supportive doula!

It was wonderful working with the postpartum doulas. They were accommodating on my rushed requests, and I was able to have both Alex and Fiona come help me transition into postpartum and taking care of my first newborn. Thank you for your help and insights!

I used mindful mommy to retain a doula for postpartum support with my second son. Gio was amazing- she helped me find a lovely doula who lived in my area. My doula, Lisa, was also fantastic, and helped me immensely in the weeks after the birth. Highly recommend to any first time or any other mothers who could use some physical and emotional support in the exhausting and sensitive weeks after delivering.

Communication with Giovanna was great. We received a quick response when we first contacted them and we were provided a couple of doulas to meet with and thankfully we were matched with our doula Nadine. The follow up communication was also quick and really appreciated their proposal and contract process as everything was well laid out. We knew we wanted to meet with a few doulas before making a decision and so we highly recommend working with Mindful Mommy as it saves time and headspace trying to do your own research and coordinating with various doulas (especially during a time when there’s already so much going on already!).

The team at mindful mommy Doulas worked incredibly fast to put a team together to support me and my family after the birth of my second son. We needed some extra support 24/7! Their team was incredibly professional and ready to jump in and help us where we needed it. I continue to recommend some of the Doulas we worked with to friends who have new babies and would highly recommend their services to anyone.

We found our doula for our June 2023 baby. It was overall a great experience through Mindful Mommy Doula - after having filled out a questionnaire, they set us up with a couple of options we might have liked and ended up really connecting with them. Highly recommend!

We had a wonderful experience with Mindful Mommy services and with our doula Nadine. We were searching for a birthing doula quite late in the game (only 3 months prior to giving birth) to help with what had been a stressful pregnancy. From the communication, and matching process to the trust-building and resources provided, it was a game-changer and we loved and appreciated our experience. Thank you!

I want to thank Gio for her support and services during my pregnancy. Not only was she knowledgeable, informative and approachable, but she is personable. So much so that when I first met her it felt like I had known her for a while. Although the pandemic and the ever increasing restrictions meant that I couldn’t receive in person support in labour, she gave me all the tricks and tools needed to cope AND stayed in communication with me as needed. The TENs machine in my Labour goodie bag helped me manage my contractions medication free! She was always a call, text or email away and for that I’m forever grateful!

Gio is an incredible Doula and person. She is very intuitive and knows just what to do to help you through your labour. I could not have done it without her and will definitely be using her services again for baby #2. She helped me feel so calm and confident throughout my birth and advocated for me whenever needed. I loved her various technique which helped me through the labour pains and her reassurance through the whole process. Gio is the best

My experience with Giovanna was a great one. Dare to say I enjoyed labouring with her. Since I have an older child at home, my husband couldn’t be with me at the hospital at 3 o’clock in the morning. But Giovanna was there. She kept me company, eased my pain and laughed at my bad jokes. She’s also a great photographer and took some beautiful and dramatic pictures as the baby was born. My labour and birth wasn’t easy but through it all she was reassuring and supportive. I didn’t believe in the necessity of having a doula before I met Giovanna, and if we decided to have another child, I will definitely ask her to be my doula again. Thanks Giovanna for all you’ve done for us.
