About Prairie Path Birth

Becoming a parent is one of the most transformative experiences in a person’s life. It is powerful, vulnerable, overwhelming, and deeply human—and it deserves to be honored with care, respect, and meaningful support.

We believe that everyone deserves to feel supported throughout pregnancy and parenthood. Whether you are preparing for birth or navigating those early newborn days, you should not have to do it alone.

We strive to bring together both evidence-based education and intuitive, compassionate support. We are rooted in the belief that families thrive when they are given the tools, confidence, and space to make informed decisions that feel right for them.



Miranda Yde, birth doula and childbirth educator with Prairie Path Birth

LCCE, CLD, CPD, CLC, CBS, SBD, CPST

I began my journey in birth work as a community-based doula, supporting young families through pregnancy, birth, and the early days of parenting. I have had the honor of working with a wide range of families, including first time parents, those experiencing loss, families planning VBACs, and those who are neurodiverse or sensory-sensitive.

I am a Full Spectrum Doula, Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator (LCCE), Certified Lactation Counselor (CLC), Certified Breastfeeding Specialist (CBS), and a Certified Child Passenger Safety Technician (CPST), with additional training in perinatal mental health.

In my free time, I love spending time with my kids, being outside, playing video games or D&D, and trying out new hobbies and creative projects. I’m definitely a collector of hobbies and always seem to have a new project or interest I’m diving into!
