A doula is a trained professional that provides emotional, physical and mental support to the birthing person and their partner. Doulas are a great source of information, tools, and resources to support you on your journey. At your birth, doulas provide “continuous” labor support to the birthing person. We are with you until the end.

A doula does not provide medical services, diagnosis, assessments, or prescribe treatment. Midwives are certified professionals with advanced maternal training. However, a doula is the perfect addition to your birth tribe. I make sure you are seen, safe, supported and heard during your birth.

Some services are covered. Consult with your insurance provider as all have different policies. Also, check on HSA approval for doula services.

Of course! The best time to prepare for your journey is before you get pregnant. Preconception health is essential for optimal outcomes. Let’s work together to lay a healthy foundation for your fertility.

I approach fertility from a mind, body, and wellness avenue. I help you with your emotional, physical, and mental preparation for conception.

Absolutely! But remember, natural birth is a mindset. If you desire a natural birth make your wishes known to your provider and ensure they are supportive. Work with your doula on ways to keep your mind and body at a high vibration for natural birth.  Always remember that birth is unpredictable so be flexible. I’d love to be a part of your birth team to make your birthing dreams a reality. Hire me as your Birth Doula.

It is never too early to consult with a doula. As soon as you get started, your support starts and I remain with you for the duration of your journey. Let’s get started.

Doulas not only support the birthing person, but the partners as well. Doulas do not replace the partners, rather we are an extra source of support. Partners are informed on how to best support the birthing person during the journey and prepared for comfort measures and positions they may assist with on Labor Day.

It is important that you consult with your family members to find out how you can support them. You can purchase a gift card for doula services for their journey or grab resources to support their pregnancy.

Health is the state of complete mental, physical, and social well-being and not just the absence of disease. Health contributes to your quality of life.

Wellness is becoming aware of your current lifestyle and making choices toward a lifestyle that supports all aspects of your well-being, not just your body. This includes mental, physical, social, spiritual, and environmental factors. Wellness focuses on bringing all aspects of your being into harmony for better quality of life.

Health and Wellness is important if you are pregnant or trying to conceive because not only are they the basic building blocks of your overall state of well-being, but they can affect both the health of the mother or person carrying the child and the unborn, developing baby. Creating and maintaining a lifestyle of health and wellness can help to reduce the risk of complications during pregnancy, examples are preterm birth, gestational diabetes, and preeclampsia. It can also increase the chances that the baby is born at a healthy weight and reduces the risk of developing chronic conditions later in life. Overall, being in good mental, physical, and spiritual health can increase the chances of conceiving and having a healthy pregnancy.

If you are pregnant or trying to conceive, my services will provide you with guidance on how to maintain a healthy lifestyle during pregnancy, infertility treatment, and/or managing chronic diseases. This can include support with nutrition, physical activity, stress management, and other lifestyle factors that can impact pregnancy and fertility. By providing you with valuable guidance and support, we empower you to make healthy lifestyle choices and navigate the challenges that may arise on your journey to wellness.
