SERVICES

What is the purpose of a doula?

A doula is a person that guides and assists in positive and safe birth experiences. They do this by supporting birthing families physically, mentally, emotionally, and informationally. This support can completely change a birth environment, and allow more room for the journey to belong to the birthing person.

What to expect when working
with me:

My purpose is to be a calm, grounding presence throughout this experience with you. I am passionate about physiologic and evidence-based birth. I want you to feel comfortable, well-educated, and empowered to make your own decisions about your birth.

My exact role in your birth is completely up to you!
For some, it means I am in the depths with you - physically supporting you and reminding you how strong you are throughout the hard, intense moments. For others, it might be making sure you have water on stand-by, reminding your partner how to do counter-pressure on your hips, or just being present for questions or advocacy.

I am here for you, in whatever way you need.

NEW TO DOULAS?

If you have never used a birth doula before and the cost is prohibitive, I offer four discounted spots per year for those who aren’t in a position to afford a doula at full price. I hope to remove some the financial barrier for at least a few who are diligently seeking a birth doula. If you are interested, fill out the contact form and we can talk more about this!
