Welcome and thank you for being here!


My name is Jessica Carr-Walker and I’m a passionate doula on the Sunshine Coast lucky to have my calling as my work.

I’m a mother of 4 extraordinary, wonderful children; Elona, Havana, Lola and Tiago. My family and I have been living in beautiful Yaroomba since 2012 and absolutely love it.

I was born in Colombia from a Colombian mum and a French dad. I’ve been very fortunate to have had an amazing childhood, travelling a lot and learning different languages and cultures. I speak fluently Spanish, French, English and Italian.  

My passion for birth has always been in me. As long as I can remember my curiosity and admiration for babies and pregnant women was hard to control.
When I gave birth for the first time at the age of 21 my whole world changed forever, the experience was unbelievable and I was ready to do it again the next day. I quickly realized how unique my experience was. I tried to understand why I was so “lucky”. I was certainly very young but I was never scared. I trusted my body and most of all I trusted the process.
I remember saying to my mother; “ Women have given birth for thousands of years, if they can do it, so can I”.
Fast forward almost 15 years and 3 more babies, I decided to write down a bucket list and among travelling the world I wrote “assist at a birth “.
That day I knew what I needed to do! I studied and became what I was always meant to be ~ a doula

I’m passionate about supporting women and their husbands, partners throughout the whole process of their pregnancy, labour, birth and postnatal experience. I love helping pregnant women building confidence and removing fears surrounding birth to give them the best birthing experience.
