About me

I am a postpartum doula and certified breastfeeding specialist with NICU experience as a nurse. I provide prenatal preparation visits with a focus on education and planning as well as daytime postpartum doula support which includes education, emotional support, and hands-on assistance. I strongly believe that new parents and their children do not receive enough support. The saying "it takes a village" exists for a reason. I know that most of us don't have a village, but I would be happy to be a part of yours.
