Hypno-babies Doula Training

“Hi! I’m Victoria and I am a queer birth & postpartum doula with Align. When supporting families, I truly enjoy getting to know and supporting parents throughout their pregnancy and postpartum journey. Birth can be beautiful and empowering and I hope to create that type of experience for my clients, no matter how they choose to bring their baby into the world. As your doula, I hope to provide evidence-based information, advocate for your needs, and affirm your choices in birth. In the postpartum period, my goal is to show up for whatever you are needing that day, whether it's lactation support, newborn care while you catch up on sleep, or cooking a meal for your family. I want to provide your family the space to enjoy this new chapter, while feeling fully supported.

I am trained in the use of TENS units, which can be an amazing way to manage pain throughout labor without the use of medication. I also have training and experience with hypnobirthing. Outside of my work as a doula, I am a mental health therapist specializing in supporting pregnancy & postpartum, as well as LGBTQ+ and neurodivergent-affirming care. In my free time, I enjoy running, spending time with my husband & two dogs, and baking!”

Testimonial:

“I truly cannot imagine our birth without Victoria. She made the whole experience so special and really advocated for us every step of the way. From the very beginning she went above and beyond to support us, and during labor she was incredible, helping me with breathing, guiding me into positions, and just being such a calm, steady presence. I felt so cared for and supported, and I’m so thankful we had her with us.”

“Cannot recommend Victoria as a doula enough! She provided such a calming presence throughout my pregnancy and the birth of my second. Her knowledge regarding pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and newborns is expansive. Truly was my go-to for questions and advice!! I will forever recommend her to others!!”

“Victoria made my birthing experience the best it possibly could have been! She was very supportive and helped make sure the nurses and doctor followed my birth plan. She was able to help me with every want and need I had through labor and after!”
