My first love of all things pregnancy and birth related came while watching my mom go through pregnancy with my three younger siblings. Especially my two youngest sisters who were born at home when I was old enough to understand what was going on. While my mom didn't think I was ready to be a doula at six and eight years old, I mimicked my moms prenatal yoga poses, obsessed over the models of the stages of development month by month and the seed of passion was planted in my young heart. Birth and pregnancy have been nothing but magical and enthralling for me my entire life.
I started my journey to becoming a DONA certified doula in 2012 and have felt nothing but honored to be a part of the birthing stories of so many women since then. I even had my own sweet baby this past fall and my love of babies and pregnancy has grown even deeper. (I didn't know that was possible!) It a dream job to be welcomed into the birth stories of other women and to be a part of their most sacred and powerful journey. |
There is never a time that I don't want to talk about your pregnancy and birth stories.
There is no question too small to discuss or a situation so unique that you are ever alone.
I love to listen and learn from every person and pass that knowledge on.
I would be honored to be your doula.
