My journey into the world of birth began with the birth of my first child in a hospital.
I was frustrated with the hospital experience I had and began searching for other options for my second birth. I connected with a doula who supported me to plan a home birth, and alongside my midwife, guided me safely through a loving second birth experience. I decided to become a doula to help women in the same way.
I recognize that the birth of a child is one of just a few events in life that will be forever engraved in the hearts and minds of parents. I want to do whatever I can to make it a time of joy and love, one that parents look back on with happiness and without regret. I can’t always make things perfect, and I definitely can’t control all the circumstances, but I will do whatever I can to make sure parents have the information, support and encouragement they need throughout this special time.
If you are expecting a new baby, please reach out. I would love to support you on your journey.
