Danielle

Danielle Chancellor-Checketts
Midwife, CPM-LDEM

Danielle has been attending both out of hospital and hospital births since 1999. Over 15 years of birth experiences.

She is a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) and is also licensed through Utah State as an LDEM (Licensed Direct-Entry Midwife).
She became interested in childbirth after suffering a late miscarriage in 1998 and found her life’s passion in it while teaching childbirth classes and attending births as a Doula.

Danielle has 6 children. She birthed her first baby in the hospital. She found this experience to be tolerable but wanted to feel more “listened to” and in control of her birth. So for her next birth, she had her baby at home underwater and has never looked back.

Danielle’s cardinal rule about birth is to listen to the Mother. She believes in birth and a Mother’s ability to birth. She feels so honored to be able to attend to expecting Mothers and families. She enjoys working one on one with each client, so that she is able to give personal care to every woman needs & deserves.

The skills she has gained through the years is a great benefit to those she cares for!

Elissa
Doula

Hi! My name is Elissa, I am a Utah native married to my sweetheart of 14 years. We have 4 beautiful children that keep us moving! Between homeschooling, jobs, extracurricular activities, church callings and constantly furthering education we stay close-knit and busy.

After each of my children’s births, the calling to be a part of the birth process got stronger and stronger. Finally, after having my last little guy I knew the time was right and I signed up for my doula training and dove right in! I can’t get enough! I continue to educate myself and learn everything I can to better serve my clients.

I see pregnancy, birth, breastfeeding, and the growth of a family as one of the most beautiful things about today's world. As a Doula, I am privileged to help women and their partners make these experiences as positive and empowering as possible!

Danielle and all of her team are certified in CPR and neonatal resuscitation.
