I believe my role as a birth doula is to elevate and support the connection between the birther and their experience during pregnancy, birth and postpartum!
Bringing a human into this world is as vulnerable and sacred as the creation of that human - feeling safe and supported is a must not a bonus. I love supporting families in creating that sacred space to welcome their newest babe.
The births of my girls taught me that birth is only the beginning. Postpartum support extends beyond those initial days into the months that follow. Creating a web of resources to reach out to on those hard days is what helped me most and what I strive to share with those I have the joy of working with.
I have a deep heart for those who have or are currently experiencing pregnancy loss. If this applies to you - reach out, let’s connect, it would be an honor to walk beside you through that process.
Let’s connect! Build a plan that works for you and your family..pre-conception..pregnancy..birth…postpartum…and beyond.
Tina Lambert
Birth and Postpartum Doula, Owner FVBB
As a mother of three (including a set of twins!), I have experienced the highs and lows of pregnancy, labor, birth and parenting. And yet, I always felt something was missing from my own personal birth and postpartum experiences. Yes, both my children and I emerged physically healthy, but should that be our only goal? What about our mental health? I struggled to find myself and balance all the aspects of my new role. I felt alone and confused. So, I did a ton of research. And, after much searching, that’s when I found it: “Mothering the mother.” This quote is what I believe we as moms (and moms-to-be) need in terms of support, even if we don’t realize it!
As a labor and postpartum doula, I want to be a force, a friend, a support system for mothers, partners, families, and all those connected to your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience.
We promise you won't regret meeting any of these fantastic ladies. You might be disappointed that you can't keep them, but we can't really help you with that.
Full Birth Doula Service is $1400 and Postpartum Doula Packages start at $275. Placenta Encapsulation is $250. Birth Pool Rental Available.

“Working with Tina and Krystine for the birth of my second baby was the best decision I could have made. I had a traumatic birth experience with my first and was looking for support in having a different experience with my second baby. Tina and Krystine listened, validated, and helped me to feel understood regarding my previous birth experience. They helped me to outline what I wanted to approach differently with the birth of my second and advocated for me along the way. They were always a text or phone call away when I had questions during pregnancy or as labor and delivery got closer. With the support of these women I was able to have an unmedicated vbac and I am forever thankful for their support in making this happen. At the birth of our second baby Tina was a calm and constant presence. Having her there helped me to stay centered and focused on my dreams for this birth. The impact that Tina and Krystine had on this birth experience is immeasurable. I will never forget the role they played. If you are on the fence about having them join your birth team just do it! You will not regret it.”
“Krystine was amazing! She was helpful on so many levels for me and baby. She truly cares and that was evident!”
“If you’re looking for an incredible group of women to support your birth then you’re in the right place ✨ Having our doula brought comfort, knowledge, reassurance, support and so much more! She was an essential part of my birth team that I am so thankful for! I’m so glad for my placenta encapsulation - so glad that I did and I trusted her guidance and expertise.
These women have left an everlasting mark on my heart for the grace and love they surrounded me with as we welcomed our baby girl!”
“I loved my doulas! My partner and I both talk about how we are so thankful we chose to have a doula. Having a doula totally allowed us to fully take in our birth experience. They cared for us so tenderly and made me feel, most importantly, safe and supported. I loved it all.

“FVBB helped us welcome our third baby ♥️ Throughout pregnancy, labor & birth, and pp I felt supported, empowered & heard. These ladies have so much knowledge to share & are so kind and genuine. I’m beyond grateful to have had the support & amount of respect I did in my birth. I was able to have the birth experience I had always hoped for & that’s something I will forever cherish. Without a doubt I would call them again for future pregnancies, just sooner next time ☺️.”
“I had a lot and I mean a LOT of trauma surrounding my pregnancy and birth with my first baby. When I got pregnant with my second, I was happy but feelings of fear and anxiety quickly took over and my feelings of happiness diminished. I remember talking to Krystine at a work function about what she does as a doula and I IMMEDIATELY knew I needed to have her as mine. I always thought doulas were just meant for moms who wanted to have a “natural” birth or a home birth but I was definitely wrong. Through Krystine I met Tina and I trusted them immediately with all of my questions. They helped me through a lot of my anxieties when I was pregnant. Unfortunately my second birth wasn’t a whole lot less traumatic but I couldn’t have gotten through it without Krystine there. Fast forward to finding out I was pregnant withy third, those two were the FIRST I told. Again, they were there night and day with any questions I had and were in full support of me wanting to have a “natural” birth this time. My third birth was incredible. I had both of them there with me, holding my hands, giving me words of affirmation, etc. My third birth was an amazing experience. I had so much support from them, my husband and my midwife. Doulas are not just for first time moms, they aren’t just for “natural births”, they are for literally anyone. If you are pregnant with number 1, 2, 3 or 7 I would recommend them.”
“FVBB was absolutely amazing! They are very responsive to texts and an amazing advocate for having the kind of birth YOU want. My doula kept me hydrated during labor and was feeding me within minutes of my daughter’s birth to make sure I was nourished! She helped my husband know what to do during labor and delivery, they made a wonderful team! Can’t say enough good things about her! ”
