Doula Life for 13yrs ~ 500+ families served
Moving forward in 2023, I am accepting a very limited number of clients. I have served our community as a doula for over 13 years, spending most of this time on call, never knowing when I may have to go to a birth, never knowing when I may get home and rarely getting a break. I have decided that a shift is needed and to focus more on Lactation support. My previous clients will always be prioritized, I will make every effort to support you again!
As a professional, I highly value continued education. My current pricing reflects the high level of education and training I have completed over the years to help support women and families. As a lactation consultant, my clients have 24/7 access to the highest level of breastfeeding support. As a registered nurse, you can be assured you are receiving accurate evidence based medical information and that you are working with someone who knows how to navigate a complex health care system.
Below summarizes my certifications and trainings:
- International Board Certified Lactation Consultant
-Registered Nurse
- Certified Birth Doula ( with multiple organizations )
- Certified Post Partum Doula ( with multiple organizations )
-Spinning Babies Parent Educator
-Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator
-Hypnobabies certified Doula
-Registered Naturopath
As always, my consults are FREE
We can meet up to chat about how I may be able to help your family and get to know one another. I am now offering different levels of service to best meet your needs!
Payment for my services are typically taken in 2 split payments ( alternate schedules are possible )
1/2 is due when you hire me to book your dates.
1/2 is due by 37 weeks.
My goal is to support you in achieving your birth goals whatever they may be. I support all types of births ( planned csections, inductions, medicated and natural births ). I will use all my skills to keep you as comfortable as possible, informed and empowered to make good choices for the birth of your baby. I will also stay with you the entire time and 2 hours after the baby arrives to ensure that everyone is settled , help establish breastfeeding ( if that is the plan ), and capture some nice photos if desired

Best Birth Prep Classes
$250.00
Have your very best birth by preparing with me; one on one!
What is a birth ball? How does my husband squeeze my hips? What are all the medication options for me?
I answer all these questions and more!
I offer these 2 classes in the comfort of your home. We discuss all the nitty gritty of how to prepare for labor, what to expect, what to bring and how to craft a sensible Birth Preferences list. Being prepared will help you feel more relaxed and ready. I will
provide the teaching of hands on skills and comfort measures for labor. I also provide my students with
the Spinning Babies Parent Class and handouts as a bonus learning! Classes are typically set up for 32/33 weeks and again around 36/37 weeks.
