Nicole Marie Conde Brenes

Full Spectrum Doula

About Me

I’m a bilingual full-spectrum doula supporting families through the reproductive spectrum — fertility, birth, postpartum, and bereavement.

My work is rooted in holistic care, guided to integrate the emotional, physical, spiritual, and cultural aspects of care. I truly honor the body's innate wisdom and the natural processes of life.

I'm trained as a clinical herbalist, traditional bodyworker, lactation counselor, and placenta specialist. In my work I emphasize inclusivity, trauma informed, compassionate, culturally responsive care. I aim to create safe and nourishing spaces for birthing individuals and their families.

Practice Philosophy

I believe that every reproductive journey—regardless of the outcome—deserves to be held with unwavering compassion and respect. My approach is rooted in the belief that when a person feels safe, heard, and physically nourished, they can move through life’s most significant transitions with power and grace.

I provide non-judgmental emotional support for all experiences, including abortion, miscarriage, and loss. My commitment is to foster a warm, understanding space where clients can process transitions without shame or fear.

Birth preparation should be a mirror of the birth experience itself: calm, intentional, and empowering. We work together to build your tool belt through: Crafting birth preferences and understanding labor physiology, integrating rituals, like breathe work and visualization to ground the nervous system and learning comfort measures so you feel safe and capable in your body.

During labor, I serve as an emotional anchor and a guardian of informed consent. I provide continuous physical support through grounding techniques and breathe work while helping your partner stay deeply engaged. My goal is to maintain open communication with your medical team so you always feel empowered.

I view the postpartum period as a sacred window for deep bonding and healing. My approach to your recovery is ritual with reverence. I blend practical skills with physical and spiritual nourishment such as: Guidance on infant massage, baby-wearing, and feeding.
Utilizing healing herbs and warming foods to restore your temple and providing intentional bodywork when appropriate.
