Supporting You Through Birth
Doula Services
The journey to motherhood is just that, a journey, sometimes rough, sometimes easy, but it’s nice to have the support of someone who will look out for you along the way. As a doula, it is my pleasure to give mamas-to-be the emotional and physical support that they need to have the best birth experience possible. It’s important that a mama-to-be feels seen, heard, and validated throughout the process. Having an advocate in your corner to ensure that you feel safe, respected, informed, and empowered throughout your pregnancy, labor, and delivery experience, can help take away any unwanted added stress that can come up along your journey to motherhood.
Birth & Postpartum: As a Trauma-Informed Birth & Postpartum Doula and a Certified Meditation & Mindfulness Teacher, it is important to me to create the best gentle birthing experience possible. As such, I like to utilize deep breathing and relaxation techniques, visualization, and positive affirmations to create a soothing and peaceful environment for my mama-to-be during childbirth, making for a more comfortable, empowering, and calming childbirth experience.
I aim to enhance your birthing experience by providing personalized, continuous support to you and your partner throughout your pregnancy, labor, and delivery.
Healing doesn’t end once your baby arrives. The postpartum period is a sacred window for renewal, whether you’re adjusting to life as a new mama or navigating loss. I offer gentle, in-home sessions that combine physical care, energy work, and intuitive support to help you restore balance, reconnect with your body, and nurture your inner strength during this tender transition.

**Gentle virtual birth and postpartum support is also available for families who need or prefer remote care.
Bereavement: Experiencing loss of a baby, whether through miscarriage, stillbirth or neonatal loss, it can feel very isolating and traumatic. Through my background as a Trauma-Informed Care Practitioner and my Stillbirthday Bereavement training, I can help you process through your loss and help guide you along your healing journey. As a Bereavement Doula, I help provide the extended emotional support that you may need during a very tender moment in your life, being that extra shoulder to cry on and lending a caring ear to listen and to validate your feelings and experience.
My goal for us together, along with those closest to you, is to validate that this birth is still a birth, and one that should be grieved and not shamed, and to shine the light for brighter days to come.
