About me
My Story
My work as a doula began with assisting family members' homebirths. I attended a CAPPA doula certification workshop in 2012, and continued attending births. I attend hospital and homebirths, medicated, and unmedicated - every birth is unique.

My Philosophy
Some unique experiences that I bring to my doula toolbox: I am an experienced mindfulness teacher, and many families find mindfulness skills to be very valuable in pregnancy, labor and postpartum. I am a wife and mother of three beautiful daughters - two teenagers and a nine year old. I am also an artist if you want to do some creative things during your pregnancy and postpartum. I really enjoy writing your birth story, but I will encourage you to write it from your own perspective as well :)
I understand that an enjoyable pregnancy, birth and postpartum experience is dependent on uniting body and mind. I can provide tools to the mother and family that will help you have the experience that you want. I listen carefully to what the mother wants and support that vision. It is not a doula's place to impose an agenda or lifestyle or spiritual path, just to provide tools that align with what the mother wants.
