Birth Doulas are non-medical professionals. Doulas companion birthing clients and families, through providing educational, emotional and hands-on support. Our purpose is to educate clients on their options, assist in defining a birth plan, advocate for clients’ need and wants with medical professionals, teach techniques for the alleviation of pregnancy aches and labor pain, and be a full-body presence during labor and delivery.
“Let choice whisper in your ear and love murmur in your heart. Be ready. Here comes life.”

My services
Prenatal Visits
Months before your baby is due, we’ll schedule visits to discuss any questions or concerns you may have, create a Birth Plan, if desired, and flesh out your desires and hopes for your birth experience.
On-Call Availability
During your pregnancy and once arriving in due-date range, I will be available by phone and/or email to answer any questions you many have and provide guidance and support during the initial stages of labor.
Labor Support
I will be present to provide informed and encouraging birth support based on your wishes.
Hospital-Based Postpartum Support
I will spend up to two hours after birth to help initiate the breastfeeding relationship, if desired, and encourage bonding between you and your sweet one.
“There is such a special sweetness in being able to participate in creation.”
