MEET THE FOUNDER
Hello! First things first, congraulations!
My name is Ciara King.
For nearly a decade, I worked in construction.
I loved the hard work, but deep down I knew the Lord had created me for something more, something that truly aligned with the calling on my life to support others.
I didn’t know what that “something more” was until the birth of my son, Bowden.
Experiencing his birth with the loving presence of a doula, especially after having previous births without that support, opened my eyes to the beauty, peace, and holy strength God designed for mothers.
In that moment, the Lord made my calling unmistakably clear.
This calling has transformed not just my life, but my family’s as well.
The name Kingdom Beginnings was chosen with purpose. Our mission is rooted in the belief that every child is a blessing and every birth is a holy beginning within God’s Kingdom. We desire to serve families with support that reflects His love, honors the sacredness of new life, and strengthens each home as it grows His Kingdom, one beautiful beginning at a time.
Now, as the founder of Kingdom Beginnings Birth Services, based out of Zimmerman, Minnesota, I am honored to walk with families through their sacred pregnancy, birth, and postpartum seasons with faith, compassion, and wholehearted support, the very support that changed my own story.
Kingdom Beginnings Birth Services was named to honor the Lord, recognizing that birth marks the beginning of life within His Kingdom. This work is not ours alone, but instead is a calling to serve families during one of the most sacred beginnings.
“Ciara was an absolute joy to have as our postpartum support doula. She made the transition into postpartum life so smooth. Not only through her visits where she literally anticipated all my needs and assisted us so much but also through connection, support and resources outside of those visits as well. We were so blessed to have her!”
— Jenna
“hen thinking about my beautiful birth, I could not be more grateful for the experience the Lord gave me, especially through having Ciara in that space with my husband and I!
She was there for me in more ways than one, listening, supporting, ideas and then the birth!!! She was steady and helped me move through each transition so well. Ciara also supported my husband so well, in ways to be there for me and to be there for him, keeping him fed and hydrated too!
I could not have imagined my birth any better than it turned out! I am blessed to have met Ciara for this special time in my life and to now call her a friend!”
— Hannah
“I recently gave birth to my first baby and Ciara was our doula. Throughout the entire process she has been a true blessing. Her kindness and caring nature has made the transformation into motherhood a little lighter. She truly cares for you and your baby unlike any other. I would recommend her to anyone looking to add a doula to their birthing team.”
— Courtney
GET THE DOULA!! If I could give more than 5 stars I would. Ciara was incredible from the very beginning. From pregnancy, through birth and postpartum she was a phone call or text away with any questions we had. Her knowledge and guidance through it all was so helpful going into being first time parents. Our birth did not go as I had “planned”, but Ciara brought so much peace and calmness to it all, and she was right by our sides through everything. We were so blessed to have such an amazing support system through Kingdom Beginnings❤️
