Tampa Bay Doula Services by Alexa Thode
Rooted in compassion and guided by evidence, we’re here to walk with you through birth, postpartum, and beyond—with grounded care for mind, body, spirit, and baby.
Our Philosophy
Ground & Grow Birth Co. is a holistic birth company based in Tampa Bay, offering nurturing, evidence-based support through every stage of the perinatal journey. Founded by Certified Doula and Childbirth Educator - Alexa Thode, our services include labor doula support, postpartum care, personalized childbirth education, infant feeding and lactation guidance, somatic bodywork, belly casting and curated nesting parties.
We believe every growing family deserves care that is grounded, intuitive, and informed by evidence-based practices. By blending clinical knowledge with emotional support, we walk beside you with a calm presence and compassionate guidance—honoring the science and soul of birth, and creating space for confident, connected beginnings. At Ground & Grow Birth Co., we believe in honoring the sacred ceremony that is childbirth.
Steady support through every wave of your journey. From the final weeks of pregnancy to the first breath of new life, I’ll be by your side with comfort, encouragement, and grounded care—helping you move through labor feeling strong, supported, and deeply connected to your experience.
Your journey doesn’t end at birth—it’s only just beginning. In the tender days after delivery, I’ll be by your side with encouragement, hands-on care, and practical support—like meal prep and light housekeeping—so you can focus on healing, recovering, and bonding with your baby as you step into motherhood with confidence.
Birth is a big moment—and you deserve to feel ready for it. My classes are designed for you and your support person, creating a calm, welcoming space to learn, ask questions, and prepare together. With evidence-based guidance and practical tools, you’ll walk into birth feeling informed, empowered, and deeply connected.
