Personal, professional, and individualized care for your motherhood journey.
You’re carrying pressure, expectations, questions, and hopes.
You want to do this “right.” You want to love your baby well, stay connected to your partner, keep up with your job, nurture your friendships, and hold on to your values.
But if you're honest, you're also a little scared. You don’t know what’s normal, what’s a warning sign, or how you’re going to hold it all.
You are taking care of everything around you: growing a new life inside you, investing in your relationships, managing your responsibilities, and feeling the weight of other people’s expectations of you. But here’s what I wonder…
I’ve been there.
That’s why I became a doula: to take care of mothers. From pregnancy to postpartum, I help you find clarity in the chaos and confidence in your next step. I know how hard you are trying, I know you are doing your best… And you need to know that you don’t have to do it alone.
You're a first-time mom who wants to prepare well but feels overwhelmed by information and opinions.
You’re an experienced mom who knows that it is way too easy to put yourself last, and you want to do things differently this time for the sake of your mental health, relationships, and kids.
You've experienced anxiety or depression in the past and want to set yourself up for emotional support.
You feel the weight of "doing it right" and fear what might happen if you don't.
You believe in science, faith, medicine, and your body’s intuition, and want someone who honors all of those.
You want to feel confident, not just in your birth plan, but in your ability to adapt when things don't go to plan.

Continuous presence. Midwives, doctors, and even nurses come and go but I am not going anywhere.
Comfort measures, massage, counter pressure, labor positioning for optimal fetal alignment
Partner coaching and reassurance

Helping you identify when and how to ask for help
Encouragement and grounding in your values as you step into motherhood
Heading into birth feeling prepared, grounded, and supported. You’ve got a voice in the room, someone to remind you what you’re capable of—and someone to help you make sense of every twist and turn.
Those first few days with your baby. Instead of second-guessing every decision or crying alone in the bathroom, you’re getting steady support, encouragement, and reminders that you’re doing an incredible job.
I'm not just here to help you have a "successful birth." I'm here to help you feel seen, supported, and strong in your new identity as a mom.
And it works: continuous support from a doula has been shown to reduce the likelihood of C-sections by 39%, decrease the use of pain medications, and increase overall satisfaction with the birth experience.
I am a DONA trained birth doula and I combine evidence-based research with the support of a friend, walking alongside you from the first trimester to the fourth. No matter what kind of birth you have (hospital, home birth, C-Section, unmedicated, induction, etc) -- I am here for you.
I have a background in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders through Postpartum Support International, and I am always learning and growing in new skills (labor positioning, comfort measures, postpartum healing, anxiety and depression, and more)!
If you’re ready for birth and motherhood to feel less overwhelming and more grounded... If you want a support person who holds space for both your fears and your faith...
I would be honored to walk with you.

You don't need to have all the answers.
You just need someone in your corner.
A doula is a trained professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to their client before, during and shortly after childbirth to help them achieve the healthiest, most satisfying experience possible.
Midwives and OBs handle the medical side of care, while a doula focuses on non-clinical (but very important) elements such as the mother's emotional well-being, assisting with labor pain management, and advocating for the mother's preferences. A doula has a unique understanding of the mother because they typically spend more time getting to know the mother before birth. Furthermore, the doula can offer home visits for continued care after baby is born.
Numerous studies show that having a doula present at birth leads to better outcomes for both moms and babies. According to Evidence Based Birth® and Cochrane Reviews:
39% decrease in C-section risk
15% increase in likelihood of spontaneous vaginal birth
10% decrease in the use of medications for pain relief
31% decrease in risk of being dissatisfied with the birth experience
ALSO,
"[...] Doula guidance in perinatal care was associated with positive delivery outcomes including reduced cesarean sections, premature deliveries, and length of labor. Moreover, the emotional support provided by doulas was seen to reduce anxiety and stress." (Muacevic & Adler, National Library of Medicine, "The Effect of Doulas on Maternal and Birth Outcomes: A Scoping Review", 2023 May 15, 2024 Oct 9)

Every birth is unique, and you have new challenges this time around. With one (or more) kids already at home, you have even less time to think of your needs, hopes, fears, and desires. A doula can help you process what went well last time and what you’d like to be different at this birth. Even though you’ve done this before, it doesn’t negate the fact that you need to be seen and supported now.
Absolutely not. The support people you choose to have are essential to helping you feel comfortable. A doula will empower your support people with education and tactics to support you best during labor. The doula can show your partner different comfort measures during labor and advocate for your wishes. A doula can also be the one to tell your MIL that no, she's not welcome in the birthing room right now, so your spouse doesn't have to :)
Yes! Doulas support all types of birth. My job is to make sure your voice is heard, your preferences are respected, and you feel safe and supported—no matter what kind of birth you’re planning.
Of course. Your provider will likely be more present at a home birth than a hospital birth, but their #1 priority is still the safety and health of you and baby. I am there for emotional and physical support, not medical. I am able to be present when the provider is busy, making sure you FEEL safe, seen, and supported.
Let’s talk. Don’t discount it just yet because of the price. If the investment feels worth it to you, let’s talk.
Some insurance providers cover the cost of a doula! Check with your provider and see. It is often a reimbursement policy. I’d be happy to help!
There is no better investment than your emotional and mental health. Investing in a doula means that when you are consumed with caring for the baby growing in your body, someone is caring for you.
Birth is only the beginning of the parenthood journey. I specialize in equipping you and your household for a stress-free postpartum experience that is full of naps and baby snuggles.
