My approach

The word DOULA means woman caregiver and I am proud and honored to be a part of this great moment in a woman's life. I am there to provide continuous emotional support, physical comfort, and assistance in obtaining information before, during and just after childbirth for the birthing woman, her partner/spouse, and family. As a Postpartum doula, I will help you process your birth, and support you in your new role into motherhood. This should be an incredible time for you and your new family and I encourage you to enjoy the journey while feeling fully supported.
