Hi, I'm Carrie Jimenez- founder, owner, and postpartum doula here at Desert Dove Wellness. 

I am a wife to the most amazing man, mama of two, Christ-follower, coffee lover, self-proclaimed butter snob, and avid reader. Born and raised in Arizona, I've grown to cherish the quiet strength and beauty that is our desert home. 

My favorite things to do in my spare time is read, bake sourdough,  visit coffee shops, and spend time with my family. 

My first birth was an unplanned cesarean. Not only was I trying to navigate motherhood for the first time, but I was also having to deal with some postpartum depression and anxiety that largely stemmed from the disappointment of how my birth turned out - all  while having to recover from major abdominal surgery.  

My second birth was a planned home birth. I didn't have much baby blues with my second born, but I still felt overwhelmed now with two small kids in tow. 

My own postpartum experiences showed me just how much support in this season matters.  That's why I founded Desert Dove Wellness. I wanted to be the kind of support I wished every family had- calm, reliable, compassionate, and practical. My goal is to help parents feel seen, heard, and cared for during those tender early weeks at home. 

I would be honored to walk alongside you in this special season and make sure you feel truly cared for, confident, and at home with your new little one.
