Meet Jennifer Dean
Experienced Guidance. A Mother's Heart. A Passion for Supporting Families.
Jennifer Dean
Certified Doula · Guided in Grace LLC
“I'm passionate about helping families feel supported, prepared, and confident as they navigate the beautiful and sometimes overwhelming journey of parenthood.”
My goal is to meet each family where they are and provide thoughtful, compassionate guidance along the way. Over the past 25 years I've had the privilege of walking beside families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum recovery — in hospital rooms, in living rooms at three in the morning, and in those quiet moments when a new parent simply needs someone steady nearby.
I'm also a mother of five, which shaped the way I care for families. I know what it is to be exhausted, to have questions you feel almost silly asking, and to want someone in your corner who will listen without judgement. That is the kind of support I try to offer every family I work with.
Maternal wellness has always been close to my heart, and it extends beyond the birth itself — into how families care for themselves at home, what they bring into their space, and how they find rest. You'll see that woven through everything Guided in Grace offers.

How She Supports Families
Warm, unhurried, and grounded in twenty-five years of being beside families in real life.
Personal, not procedural
Every family is met where they are. Support is shaped around your hopes, your history, and the way you want to welcome your baby.
Information that empowers
Options are explained clearly and without pressure, so you can make the decisions that feel right for your family and feel confident in them.
A steady presence
Someone calm beside you through pregnancy, birth, and those first tender weeks at home — reassurance you don't have to carry alone.
Surrounded by the family she raised — the home base behind every family she serves.
Jennifer and her family — the journey that shaped how she cares for yours.

- Personalized family support
- Guidance throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum

I had Jennifer for my birth and as a postpartum doula, it's hard to put into words how comfortable and safe she made me feel for the entire process. Our hospital tried to direct us in a different delivery path and Jen was the voice when I didn't feel like I had one. She helped me stick to one of our plans and I delivered a beautiful boy my way.
