ABOUT ME

Hello and welcome! My name is Rachael N. Miller, and I am the person behind Mosaic Heart Doula. My husband Sam and I currently live in a quiet mountain town in Grand County, Colorado where we act as pet wranglers for our rotund little dog Millie, and Rocky the 13-year-old cat. I am originally from Nebraska, so it has been an adjustment getting used to -30 degree weather during the mountain winters.

My husband and I share a passion for wildlife and the outdoors, but we are both homebodies by choice. I often spend my time reading, writing in coffee shops, or knitting a gift for a friend while watching YouTube videos.

In 2015, Sam and I lost our first baby to a blighted ovum miscarriage. In 2020, we lost our second around 11-12 weeks gestation. As devastating as those losses were, I see them as the events that really gave me a heart for mothers, families, and babies. In March of 2023 we welcomed our rainbow baby into our family; I am on a path of continually learning and growing as his mother. My own children are what inspired me to pursue a profession as a doula—helping others in one of the most life-changing parts of life: welcoming a new baby (or babies!) into the world.

Choosing to start a doula practice in an area where the nearest delivery unit is an hour away has been a challenge, but it is my hope to open the door to more options for parents in the Rocky Mountains.

It is truly an honor to serve people in this way. I am excited to make more connections and to grow in my knowledge and experience as a doula.
