Birth “doula-ing” is a second career for me! After 25 years working for a public health non-profit and having three children of my own, I am fully embracing and absolutely loving being a doula. 

Birth can be one of the most amazing experiences, AND, it can also bring up many fears and anxieties. I love helping people find a sense of calm, empowerment, joy and excitement about their approaching birth, and entry into parenthood if this is their first! 

One of my favorite things about being a doula is the relationship we build over the months or sometimes just weeks or even days. My goal is to be your guide, advocate, resource, observer, and trusted companion. I offer my commitment to being there for you in the way that works best for you, and your partner (if a partner is present). I will support you in whatever decisions you make. I welcome working with people of all races, cultures, abilities, gender identities, sexualities, and family structures. 

I am certified and able to support clients who have Carrot Fertility benefits.
