About me
Having trained as a Doula and Prenatal Yoga Instructor in Washington, D.C., I gained valuable experience supporting mothers in fast-paced medical settings where advocacy and informed decisions are essential. Now based in Utah, I use these skills to create calm and positive birth environments where mothers feel heard, supported, and empowered to create the birth experience of their dreams.

Service introduction
As your birth Doula, I will be a resource for continual support and care during your pregnancy and labor. Most pregnant moms will spend about 10 to 15 minutes with their obis, I will be there for the majority if not the whole time. I’ll be your go-to person for birth prep, education, and any questions that come up as you move through your pregnancy or after your prenatal visits. Some of the coping techniques I offer during labor include creating a calm atmosphere with lighting, aromatherapy, and music; guiding you through breathing techniques to help ease discomfort and relax your pelvic muscles; offering massage to help your body and mind relax; and supporting you in finding comfortable positions that can both reduce pain and help your baby move into an optimal position for birth. My goal is to help you and your partner stay present, informed, and empowered throughout labor.

Ratings and reviews
Mary Alice was with me every step of the way: in my pregnancy, during labor, and postpartum. I came to our first meeting a bit nervous about my upcoming labor. She was able to quell my fears and support me in putting together a birth plan that I felt comfortable with. My husband and I left the meeting feeling confident and looking forward to the birth. During my pregnancy, she was a wonderful guide in answering any questions that I had. When I began laboring, Mary Alice provided the guidance and support that put me at ease. She was able to advocate for me in the hospital and give me the needed information to understand the choices placed before me by hospital staff. Her words of encouragement and coaching were exactly what I needed. She is truly gifted! She is clear in her communication and knowledgeable in this role. Couldn't have asked for a better doula!
