About Beautiful Blessings

Catharine Bailey, ECD (EDC)

Elite Certified Doula (Elite Doula & Co)

I am a wife, stay home/home school mom of 5, and a doula. I attended my first birth in 2017 and fell in love with birth work. At the end of 2021 I began the process of becoming certified as a doula alongside raising my own children and adding a 5th baby to the family. Through this program I was trained as a Childbirth Educator, Fertility Coach, Birth and Postpartum Doula, Newborn/Infant Care Specialist, Breastfeeding Counselor, and Pregnancy, Infant and Child Loss Bereavement Doula. I completed my certification in June 2025 through the Elite Doula & Co. earning the title of Christian Pro-Life Elite Certified Doula.

I love to listen to and share birth stories. I often find myself in circles of women talking about pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Grace and beauty can be found in each story whether it went “as planned” or serious complications were involved. Woven across my own birth stories is abundant grace and beauty. Each of my births has taught me something valuable about my Creator and who He made me to be. I believe there is a purpose to the path I’ve walked so far, and part of that purpose is to better support other women in their journeys. I am excited to support mamas, babies and their growing families through doula work!

Philosophy Surrounding Birth

I believe women's bodies are designed to carry, birth, and care for a baby. It is a natural and completely normal process, and it is beautiful! I believe that the support of the mama (and family) can have a positive impact on her experience and memory of her birth. Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum are vulnerable times in a woman's life. How she is cared for will have a lasting impact on her life. It is a beautiful, precious time. She deserves to be loved, supported and feel safe. I believe the memories surrounding birth are some of the most precious in a woman’s life. Each mother and birth is unique and she deserves the best care and support she can have.
