Alyssa Murphy, Owner and Doula at Modern Motherhood Co.

Hi, I’m ALyssa

I’m a mom of five, and honestly, being a mom is my favorite thing in the world. When I’m not supporting families as a doula or diving into all things midwifery, you’ll find me soaking up the simple joys of life.

Listening to music? Always. Getting lost in a good book? My ultimate escape. Sipping on a good cup of coffee? Non-negotiable. And let’s not forget the occasional retail therapy—Goodwill, T.J. Maxx, and I are practically besties.

Life with kids is wild and wonderful, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything. Can’t wait to share this crazy, beautiful journey with you!

Why did I become a Doula?

Let me be real with you—after my third pregnancy, I learned just how much having solid support during birth can change everything. I didn’t have that support, and honestly? It left me feeling frustrated and alone. I wanted more for myself, and I thought, Why shouldn’t every family have the support they deserve? So in 2023, I decided to make that change.

Now, I get to do this incredible work, helping families through one of the most intense and beautiful experiences of their lives. This isn’t just a job to me—it’s my calling. Getting to cheer you on, help you feel strong, and witness the magic of birth? That’s what makes it all worth it.

I’m so thankful I get to do this and can’t wait to keep growing, learning, and showing up for families like yours. Birth is wild, wonderful, and life-changing—and having someone in your corner makes all the difference. Let’s do this together.


My Approach

My passion for supporting birthing journeys comes from a deep belief in the power of physiologic birth and the magic of informed choices. As your doula, I’m here to empower you with the knowledge, resources, and support you need to make decisions that feel right for you.

I believe every birthing journey is as unique as the person taking it, so my care is tailored to meet your individual needs. From pregnancy to birth and postpartum, your safety, comfort, and confidence are always my top priorities.

We’ll navigate this transformative journey together with trust, respect, and open communication. My goal is to support and advocate for you every step of the way so you can embrace your birthing experience with confidence and peace of mind. You’ve got this—and I’ve got you.

blending heart-centered support with evidence-informed care, embracing a holistic perspective that honors the mind, body, and spirit.
