Stephani De Azevedo
Stephani is a native of  Logan, Utah, but has lived here in Meridian for the last six years.  She is the mother of four healthy and active children and she is enjoying the process of learning how to be their mother.  She graduated from the University of Utah with a degree in exercise science.  While attending school she learned about her love for health, physiology, and the process of birth.  She enjoys camping and spending time in nature with her family and loved ones.  She also enjoys traveling and seeing new places and cultures.  


I recently read a story about a bee keeper that found a bee drowning in his own honey.  The bee keeper pulled out the bee and went about his work.  Later he went back and checked on the bee, and found that the hive a swarmed around her and cleaned her up until she could fly again.  Because that's what bees do, they take care of each other.  They are very communal.  That is what I want to create.  I want to create a network of mothers that love and take care of each other.  My doula work is all about creating that community.  I offer birth education and my birth skills to help families prepare for their birth.  I bring my support and my love into your home and your birth space.

I truly cannot recommend Stephani enough! She was attentive before the birth, checking in and making sure we were in communication. Her birth class was super helpful too!! I felt very confident going into labor for the first time. My midwife was inattentive and only came in to make sure the baby was healthy after I delivered him BUT STEPHANI KICKED BUTT!!! I 100% COULDN'T HAVE DONE IT WITHOUT HER. We were such a team and she was able to help my husband understand what I needed and was able to intuit what might help me also. Although we only met in-person twice prior to labor, it was seamless and comfortable. I truly leaned on her emotionally and physically. Whether you're planning an unmedicated birth or a hospital birth do yourself a favor AND CALL STEPH! Your body and baby will thank you I know I'll be using her for any future labors and I won't recommend anyone else!!! Super grateful, from the bottom of my heart.

Planning an out of hospital un medicated birth was a little nerve wracking, especially because people would automatically tell me horror stories. Having my Stephani by my side made a world of difference, and I had an amazing experience! I wouldn’t have wanted it any other way. She helped me not only through labor and delivery but with all of the emotions and anxieties leading up to it. She made me feel comfortable and taken care of at one of the most vulnerable times of my life. I am so grateful I had her, and wouldn’t want to do it again without her!

Stephani was MADE to be a Doula. From day one of meeting her I felt a connection and a mothering energy about her. I am so grateful that I had her by my side for my recent birth experience. I had a Doula with my first child and although I “knew what to expect” I still wanted that additional support of a Doula for my second pregnancy. It was refreshing to have her come to our home and go through the different stages of labor and talk through our wants and her suggestions. It had been over 5 years since I gave birth the first time and I assumed everything would go the same way, I was very wrong! Every part of my birth with my second was different and as a planner by natural this threw me for a loop. I was so thankful to have Stephani by my side as I labored differently than expected. When the contractions came on strong in the end, my husband was on his way back to the hospital and Stephani was the only one there keeping me on track. In the end we had a memorable birth experience and I owe a great deal of that to Stephani and her calming nature as a Doula.
