What is a Birth Doula?

A birth doula is a trained professional who provides emotional, physical and educational support to those navigating pregnancy, birth and the immediate postpartum period. My intention as your doula is to empower, educate and support you on your path to bringing your baby earth-side. I support a wide range of births in hospital, birth center and home birth settings. My goal is to meet you where you are at and provide one on one support and guidance while being your teacher, advocate and cheerleader.

It is always your birth, your way.

 
Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is also about making mothers - strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength.
— Barbara Katz Rothman
