I’m a passionate and experienced parent who knows firsthand how magical - and sometimes overwhelming the newborn stage can be. I had a doula for my own births, and that experience opened my eyes to just how beautiful and capable the human body is.

I believe every family deserves care, guidance, and reassurance as they navigate the first weeks and months together.

Hi, I’m Stephanie! I’m a mama of two and someone who truly understands how transformative the journey into parenthood can be. I’ve always been drawn to calm, grounding spaces, whether that’s near the water or in the quiet moments that matter most and I bring that same sense of ease and support into my work as a doula. My path to becoming a doula began before I even realized it. After supporting my sister and brother-in-law with my newborn nephew, I experienced firsthand how vital compassionate, hands-on support can be during those early days. That experience sparked a deep passion in me for creating positive, empowering birth and postpartum journeys. After welcoming my second child, I followed that calling and completed my doula training so I could support other families in a meaningful way. When I’m not supporting families, you’ll likely find me unwinding with a little reality TV. I’m a proud Bravoholic! But at my core, I’m here to offer guidance, reassurance, and a nurturing presence as you step into this new chapter.

I’m someone who brings a calm, steady, and grounding presence, and I naturally extend that care to ensure my support person feels held and supported as well.

There is always a shift when confidence replaces fear, and being present for that transformation is incredibly meaningful. It is also an honour to stand beside families as they welcome new life into the world, knowing I helped create a space that felt calm, safe, and supported.
