Meet Jodie
Birth Doula and Postpartum Doula

"Jodie Rodriguez is a birth and postpartum doula dedicated to providing nurturing, calming, and optimistic support to families during one of life’s most transformative experiences. She integrates holistic techniques such as meditation, sound healing, and breathwork to encourage a calming environment for birthing parents. As a NICU-informed doula, Jodie specializes in the unique emotional and physical support required by families navigating the neonatal intensive care unit journey. She is also a certified prenatal yoga teacher (PYT-85), aiming to guide clients through gentle movements that safely ease discomfort, reduce stress and anxiety, and support the body throughout pregnancy and the early postpartum period.
Her background also includes an Associate of Applied Science in American Sign Language to English Interpreting, which continues to inform her approach to inclusive, clear, and compassionate facilitation and advocacy.
Jodie resides in the west end of Richmond with her husband and two daughters. Outside of doula work, she enjoys practicing music, crocheting, and unwinding with good movies, books, and music."
