About Me

Hi, I'm Marlene Solorio! I serve all of Kings County, Tulare County, and the surrounding areas. I fully and wholeheartedly trust that you can give birth naturally, because I believe GOD designed women and babies to work together during birth. Supporting families through this journey is truly my calling.

My path to this work grew from my own experience. After three unnecessary cesareans, due to a lack of education and awareness of my rights, I became determined to have a natural birth with my fourth child. Despite skepticism from local doctors and midwives, I achieved a vaginal birth after three cesareans (VBA3C), proving that it truly is possible. That empowering experience inspired me to become a doula, so I could help others navigate their birth journeys with the knowledge and support I didn't have myself.

You are a powerful woman, designed perfectly, and deep down you already know exactly what to do, even when societal doubts cloud that confidence. I'm here to help you rediscover it and achieve an autonomous birth through education and empowerment. Together, we can create a beautiful, informed birth experience, guided by both faith and knowledge.

Practice Philosophy

My philosophy is rooted in the belief that women are designed to birth, and that when we let women lead, birth works. I believe GOD designed women and babies to work together, and that deep down, you already know exactly what to do. My role is to help you trust that wisdom and lead your own birth with confidence.

I also believe postpartum is a deeply important time, a season to heal, rest, and take it easy. When you honor that time and do it right, you set yourself up for lasting success and health, both for yourself and your baby.

Overall, my goal is to support you through education and empowerment, so you can lead your birth, heal well afterward, and step into motherhood feeling strong, capable, and cared for, guided by both faith and knowledge.
