About me

Hello! Are you looking for in home Childbirth Education or Postpartum weekend support? Thank you for looking at my profile. I'm excited to learn all about you and how best I can support you! I have worked as a Nanny for 17 years and I'm a mother to 4 of my own who are now adults. I work with a local postpartum doula agency but I am able to take clients that I meet on my own. Like you! I am registered on Trustline with a clean background, and CPR certified. I have completed 2 DONA workshops, Birth Doula and Postpartum Doula, but still working on my certification. I am a certified Childbirth Educator through Cornerstone Doula Training. The services I provide are: *Childbirth Education from a physiological standpoint and evidence based information. *Postpartum Doula support for overnights or daytime schedules. What that includes is a list created with you. Like many of us who have decided to become Doulas, I would like to provide the support and resources that I would have enjoyed. I have vivid postpartum memories of struggling to get through each day while absolutely sleep deprived and so stressed that I'm doing everything wrong. My goal is help you rest, feel nourished, and supported! I know that each parent and family are unique! My goal is to learn from you how can I support you. I'm not going to walk in assuming that I know how you feel or what your needs are. Every person is different! I feel each birthing and postpartum person deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported. My fees are on the lower end than those you find with Doulas and Childbirth Educators with experience specific to birth work. Thank you for reading! I look forward to working with you.

Service introduction

Hello! I'm so happy you have taken the time to consider me. I'm a new Birth and Postpartum Doula who is working on her certification with DONA International. I am a certified Childbirth Educator through Cornerstone Doula Trainings. I have 17 years Nanny experience, and 42 yrs of Mom experience. My goal is to learn from you how best to support you and your family. Each person I meet is a learning experience for me! * Childbirth Education: My childbirth education is based on physiological method of your body working with the baby as they transition into the world. I believe in the birthing person's right to informed choices, in regards to all interventions. I have 4 week and 8 week classes but we can talk about what is right for you. * Postpartum Doula: At the moment, I'm offering weekend overnights or weekend daytime support. Night time support is different than daytime support but the goal is for you to rest, nourish, hydrate, with nurturing support and access to information you may need.
