As your doula, I will provide continuous support before, during & immediately after birth. Through conversation & exploration, we will discover together what your hopes & desires are for your birth & postpartum period. My role is to help you feel empowered, supported & safe no matter what your birth choices are. 

Choosing a birth doula is a very personal decision. To help you decide if I might be the right fit to join your birth team, we will meet for a complimentary 30 minute interview.

During pregnancy we will meet 3 times to cover the basics of childbirth education (anatomy/physiology of labor & birth, stages of labor, medical interventions, comfort measures & early baby care), I will be available for unlimited email and phone support and preparation.  During labor, I will provide continuous labor support; informational and physical comfort measures (such as breathing, relaxation techniques, massage, position changes & visualization) and to advocate for you by helping you understand your choices at all times.
