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

A DOU-what?
Traditionally, Doulas were the sisters and the aunties who held space and supported the birthing mother as she brought forth new life, hence the saying, “it takes a village to raise a child". Doula was not a profession but a way of life. Fast forward through westernized medicine where the Doula role was removed and replaced by "trained medical professionals,” white coats set out to make a buck off this sacred right of passage.
Becoming a Doula is not something a woman learns but something she remembers from deep within her feminine roots. We are all generations of many successful birth stories. Together we all are rewriting the script, one generation at a time.
I believe so deeply in the power we hold as women and that we are channels to life, bringing forth the future. I believe reclaiming our power in one of the biggest rights of passage is the way we will change the world, one birth at a time. As a sister, I trust, respect, and honor women and the innate wisdom we each carry, and support the embodiment of gifts we are inherently worthy of expressing.

As your Doula, I will remind you of your inner strength. It is your body, your birth, your baby, your choice- my goal is to help you have an amazing experience as YOU define it. I am here to support you and your partner physically as well as emotionally before, during, and after labor. I have an intimate knowledge of childbirth while your partner has an intimate knowledge of you. Together, we make a perfect team to help you have a happier birth.
