Instructors – Denver, CO

Carolyn is a Breastfeeding Basics Instructor, ICEA Childbirth Educator and Labor Doula for the past 15 years. I have attending over 528 births and have provided Childbirth classes to over 3000 couples in my Doula and Childbirth career.

My experience working with women dealing with domestic and sexual violence allowed me to see the importance of educating and empowering women throughout many stages of life.

She originally started as a student, shadowing births with Carolyn Alexander. Abiana Patton-Toure is a D.C native, who has been practicing as a doula with Momeone 35+ births on her own. Her passion for reproductive health and empowering autonomy during pregnancy and birth has led her to pursue her Bachelor’s of Science in Midwifery at Midwives College of Utah

I provide prenatal, labor, and postpartum support and bring a unique set of skills and experience to my work. I started my journey as a birth worker in 2016, after successfully completing the Perinatal Community Health Worker Training Program with Mamatoto Village in Washington DC.

My passion for birth work began early, inspired by my mother, who was a childbirth educator. When my husband and I were expecting our first child in 2002, we prepared with Bradley Method classes. The knowledge and confidence we gained through that experience shaped my desire to help others navigate the transformative transition into parenthood. As of 2025, I’ve had the privilege of supporting nearly 70 families through labor and/or postpartum care, and teaching well over 100 families in childbirth education classes. In 2024, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing from George Mason University, and I look forward to continuing my work in maternal and infant health as a registered nurse.

When I’m supporting families through my doula work, breastfeeding assistance, or placenta encapsulation it is a feeling that I can only describe as genuine happiness and not just for me but for whomever I am supporting because I know that I am giving them my all.

Birth advocacy and empowerment are my jam. I strive to encourage birthing families to gain practical knowledge and amplify intuitive body knowledge. Doula work is more to me than back rubs and ice chips. It’s about creating a team to increase the likelihood of a beautiful birth memory and a smooth transition into the fourth trimester (postpartum). I am the mother of seven amazing humans and a Mom-mom to three sweet grandsons.

After having my son in 2017 and a fantastic doula to support me, I wanted to do as much as possible to help other women. I began my work through peer lactation support after breastfeeding my son for three years using the knowledge passed from my mother and what I had learned through my own experience. I also provided labor support for close friends and relatives before completing Dona Doula Training in 2020. I then began to provide postpartum support to families with childbirth’s emotional and physical transitions.
