“Working with children and families has always been a passion of mine. As an early childhood educator for seven wonderful years, I gained a lot of experience supporting new parents and caring for their little ones. I have always found pregnancy and childbirth fascinating and beautiful. Being a doula is very near and dear to my heart. After personally experiencing two doula-supported births, I knew that being a doula and supporting families as they bring new life into the world was my calling.

During our prenatal visits I focus on growing trust and friendship by learning about your desires, providing information and perspective, and anything else that will help me better support you and your partner. My goal is for you to go into your birthing experience feeling confident in your abilities and fully supported.

Throughout your labor I will provide continuous support by offering words of encouragement, positive affirmations, position ideas, and other comfort measures. After baby is born, I will be there to assist with breastfeeding, take pictures, provide a calming atmosphere to welcome baby and give you time to get to know your little one.

As your doula, I will be that calming presence alongside you, reminding you of your strength, your power and your wisdom. I believe that every birthing person should feel safe, supported and heard throughout their pregnancy, labor and postpartum. I would be honored to support you during your journey to parenthood and help you achieve the safe and satisfying birth experience that you desire.”
