My name is Rachele Macera, and I am a certified doula, BRM Pro, and lactation specialist serving families throughout Central Michigan. I am certified through Childbirth International and have continued my training with Spinning Babies®, Body Ready Method®, and Lactation Certification so I can better support families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum.
As both a birth worker and a mother, I understand that every pregnancy and birth journey is unique. My goal is to provide compassionate, non-judgmental support while helping families feel informed, confident, and prepared for their experience. I support all birth choices and focus on helping clients understand their options, advocate for themselves, and feel supported throughout the entire process. I truly believe that education is key!
I also incorporate movement, positioning, and body mechanics from Body Ready Method and Spinning Babies to help create balance in the body during pregnancy and support more comfortable labor and birth.
I am the founder of Safe Haven, a community-centered space dedicated to supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood. My passion is helping families feel supported, respected, and connected as they transition into parenthood.
