Birth Doula

About me

I attended birth doula training through the Simkin Center for Allied Birth Vocations at Bastyr University in Seattle, WA. My services include a free consultation, two prenatal visits, attending the birth, two postpartum visits, phone/text support and initial breast feeding support. Typical services I provide as a birth doula are relaxation techniques, counter pressure massage, acupressure, breathing techniques, set up, clean up, cooking as needed, emotional and physical support, position changes, evidence-based explanations to questions and much more. It is my intention that you feel heard, validated and respected every step of the way. Whether you are a first time parent, a seasoned parent, single parent or surrogate - your experience matters. Your needs, your baby, and your family are unique! Your care and support should reflect that. I consider it a privilege to be part of your journey and I look forward to connecting with you!
