About me

Hi, I’m Alice, a compassionate and courageous Doula, offering both birth and postpartum services. Education and information are my focus, as I work to empower birthing families to build the confidence needed for a meaningful and peaceful birth experience. I am a birth ambassador, and an expert in physiological birth. I value science and evidence-based practices, autonomy, personal responsibility, individualized care and respectful parenting. I enjoy supporting families in developing a birth plan aligned with their values, teaching and providing comforting touch, and working with partners, siblings, and multigenerational families.
