OUr Approach

Pregnancy is a normal physiological process. We believe that pregnancy and birth can be a beautiful and joyous time, and we would like to provide emotional, physical, and evidence-based informational support to help you have the best experience possible. We want to get to know you during your pregnancy, talk through your wishes and fears about birth, learn your birth plan, and provide support during labor and birth. We also believe that partners benefit from doula support. They are the one who knows you best, and we can support and help them navigate labor and birth to be there with you in the best way possible.

By preparing during pregnancy to learn about birth and knowing ahead of time what choices you have during labor, fear is diminished, creating space for a positive and joyful birth experience. We use our personal experiences and professional doula training to support families as they prepare for their birthing day, and provide physical and emotional support during labor and birth.

We believe that continuity of care is a crucial part of ensuring that our clients’ needs are met.  We work together to provide each client with intentional, focused, and continual care.  You will benefit from the combined knowledge and experience of both of us.  Your primary doula will keep the other informed so that she is equally ready to support you, if needed.  We will also be available for you postpartum, if questions or concerns come up.
