Whole Hearts Doula Services was born out of a desire to love and support families and birthing people through some of the most significant moments in life .

The periods of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum are a beautiful time in ones life. These can also be full of the unknown and can cause fear and trepidation for many.

Through practical support and education I hope to help families savor the beauty of these stages of life and feel prepared for the unknown.

My Story

ErinMarie McCauley

Owner and Doula

Born and raised in Des Moines, I have recently moved back to central Iowa after living eight years in Chicago.

After a decade of nanny work and a life long passion for helping families, I transitioned to birth work in 2024. I believe that everyone should have support during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I work to provide care and education that uplifts people and builds their own confidence to not just meet but thrive through the challenges of these periods in life.

I am a DONA International Professionally Trained Birth Doula, and am in the process of becoming a certified birth doula, postpartum doula, and childbirth educator.
