My Birth Philosophy is a true belief in the process. I believe our bodies know what they are doing, that birth is a natural process, and that we are all capable and strong enough to own this amazing, life-altering experience. I trust that no one knows what is best for you and your family better then you do! I’m an advocate for informed decision making. I provide you with evidence based information to help make your choices and unconditional support once they are made.
The journey to an empowering birth story
The word “DOULA” comes from the ancient Greek meaning "a woman who serves” and it is now used to refer to a trained and experienced professional who provides, emotional, physical, and informational support to a mama before, during and just after birth. Doulas also work with your partner, encouraging, involving, and creating an atmosphere of teamwork for a positive birth story.
Women that are provided with continuous physical, emotional and informational support believe in their ability to give birth. Studies show that when a doula attends a birth, labors are shorted, less interventions, fewer complications, couples feel more involved, use less pain medications, babies are healthier and they breastfeed more easily!
I support ALL people regardless of race, ethnicity, age, ability, religion or family structure! Birth is a Life changing event, and I consider it a true HONOR to be part of your BIRTH!
