Your Doula
Doula work found me after my own pregnancy and birth journey. I know how unexpected and sometimes frightening bringing a new life into this world can be and I want to help guide expecting parents on that path.
With a background in theatre, psychology, and coaching, I have an acute understanding of how the body and mind’s relaxed state promotes positive outcomes. My goal is to work with you and your medical team to make your birth a positive experience and a treasured memory.
When I am not at a birth, I can be found pinned to the couch under my dog, cat, and young son.
“It’s not important to me how many interventions you’ve had as long as you are comfortable with the interventions and you are saying yes to them.”
“I want to be the encouraging voice, the guiding hand, and the gentle nudge advising you to put down the Google search.”
