I fell into doula work after I saw the massive difference it made for my last two births to have a support person in the room. Having a doula bolstered my confidence that my body knew was it was doing and helped me embrace the hard work of labor with grit and strength. My heart’s desire as a doula is that you’d feel safe and seen in your most vulnerable moments, but that you’d also feel incredibly empowered for your labor! It is a joy of mine to get to know each couple as they prepare for birth. What an honor to be welcomed into such a tender space for families as their birth doula. I believe the way couples will engage their unique fears, hopes, worries and expectations about birth beforehand will drastically change the way they experience their labor and birth during and afterward. I truly see it as a partnership where we are working together to create a restful space for your heart and mind so that your intelligent body can settle into the good work of bringing baby here! 

I am absolutely a coffee snob and foodie! When given free time I love reading a good book (anything from theology to children’s classics), going on a nature walk with one of my five children or walking with my parents who live next door. I truly live a charmed life!
