About Raia 

My name is Raia Allen-Carrico. I am a Certified Personal Trainer (NSCA), Body Ready Method Pro, Certified Birth Doula (Rocky Mountain Doula), and a Certified VBAC specialist (VBAC Link). I live and work in the Denver metro area. I serve families at hospitals, birth centers, and home births in Denver and surrounding areas. I am passionate about utilizing movement for painless pregnancies, smoother births, and quicker postpartum recoveries.

In 2021, I became a personal trainer and specialized in pre/post-natal training. I became a birth doula in 2024 and my love for pregnancy and birth grew exponentially! Guiding families through this sacred time is truly my calling. Being apart of the pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey is so fulfilling.

I believe that with proper movement, education, and support, women can learn to trust their bodies and understand they were meant for birth. My birth philosophy is about preparing and supporting a woman's mind, body, and soul. Birth can be a powerful and transformative experience that every family should have access to. This is a family’s opportunity to have the birth they've always imagined and relish in the strength that was there all along.
