ANGELA HORN

As the host of Doulas of the Roundtable, Anglea facilitates direct conversations on ethics, scope, and professional confidence in birth work. Her 28-year career as a doula mentor, educator, curriculum developer, and business owner informs doula to doula support grounded in judgment, boundaries, and long-term sustainability.

Angela has attended and supported hundreds families in Tucson, Arizona, through labor, postpartum adjustment, infant feeding, and childbirth education. She is the founder and owner of Tucson Doulas, a team-based agency known for evidence-based care, clear scope, and strong provider relationships.

Her expertise is frequently sought for curriculum development within the birth industry. Angela has written and reviewed childbirth education courses, postpartum and infant care programs, and infant feeding curricula used by doulas nationwide. She became a co-owner of ProDoula in 2020 and served as Director of Research and Development (2020-2026), overseeing evidence standards, curriculum integrity, and content accuracy across programs.

Angela is known for translating research into real-world practice without hype, dogma, or performative certainty. She prioritizes ongoing education and stays current with guidance from the American Academy of Pediatrics and the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists.

Over decades of practice, Angela has built strong, collaborative relationships with physicians, midwives, nurses, and hospital administrators. Her professional reputation is rooted in consistency, ethical decision-making, and respect for scope and boundaries.

Her commitment to postpartum care is both personal and professional. Lived experience with perinatal mood and anxiety disorders informs her insistence on nonjudgmental support, emotional boundaries, and realistic expectations of doulas working with vulnerable families.

Through her doula to doula support work, Angela supports experienced doulas who want to think more clearly, communicate more effectively, and stay in this work longer without burnout. This mentorship is not training or certification. It is professional guidance grounded in pattern recognition, judgment, and the realities of long-term doula practice.

She lives in Tucson with her husband of 32 years and remains deeply connected to the community she has served for decades.
