A doula provides support and uninterrupted care for a woman in labor. I meet with the mother and her partner a few times before the birth. I will be in contact with you during early labor and will come to be with you when your labor has started establishing into active labor. I will accompany both you and your partner throughout the labor and birth.
I provide physical and emotional support, comfort and pain-coping measures, encouragement, and aid your partner in being able to support you to the best of his ability. After the birth, I will visit you at your home to see if you need to debrief the birth or aid you with any resources you may need during the postpartum period. I bring a warm meal and am happy to sit with you or clean for you.
I deeply understand, trust, and respect the natural process of labor and birth. My goal is to support the emotional and physical journey of the mother and her partner. At all times I strive to provide the best possible experience for the family that I am supporting and ease their transition into parenthood.

" A Doula is like a trail guide. Familiar with the path, she keeps you hiking through the hard parts, knowing the view at the end is incredible."
