I am a mother.

I had five beautiful births, and now I have five children who are each a gift from the Lord. I had wonderful family, midwife, and doula support for these births, which was instrumental in my entering motherhood more prepared and grounded. No one is ever totally ready for parenting! Out of these birth experiences, I wanted to help other women feel as supported in their birth experiences as I was.

Supported new moms and dads make better parents, and better parents support their children well. Better birth experiences yield more emotionally stable families. I want to play a role in this to the extent possible.

I am deeply invested.

I consider myself a thoughtful doula, and hope to help clients achieve their birth goals with a breadth and depth of experience that is not matched in most other doulas. I prepare families prenatally for birth and postpartum, and help families in labor to process a lot of new information, to move in healthy ways for their specific birth and labor, and to process the events of labor in the context of their specific circumstances and in the broader context of birth statistics.

I am a certified doula.

Birthing and becoming a mother transformed me and my life in a way that I could not have imagined (1 Timothy 2:15), and I want to support new mothers and families at the beginning of this same transformation. For this reason, I determined as a new mom to put my energies towards supporting women in childbirth. I began this journey with doula training and certification in 2004, and have continued it with over ten additional trainings and certifications, constant studies, and expect to continually add more ways in which I can support women as the right opportunities arise.
