About me

Hey, there! I'm the owner of Birthing Love and Mindfulness. I'm a full-spectrum doula with a deep passion for supporting families through every stage of their journey—from conception to postpartum and beyond. My own experiences with childbirth, miscarriage and overcoming postpartum depression fuels my commitment to making sure no one feels alone during this sacred time. As a certified Community Health Worker and both adult and youth Mental Health First Aid responder, I operate in a trauma-informed, compassionate approach to care. I'm also a trained womb wellness and skincare practitioner, offering holistic services that help clients feel nurtured both inside and out. Whether it’s emotional support, birth preparation, postpartum care, or womb-centered healing, I'm equipped to meet each client where they are (both in person and virtually) with warmth, knowledge, and empowerment. I believe every person deserves to be cared for in mind, body, and spirit—and feel honored to walk alongside each client on their unique journey.

Frequently asked questions

What makes your doula services different?

My care is trauma-informed, emotionally supportive, and rooted in mental health awareness. Along with physical comfort and education, I prioritize emotional safety, empowerment, and advocacy so clients feel fully supported — not just during birth, but throughout pregnancy and postpartum.

Do you support hospital, birth center, and home births?

Yes. I support families planning hospital births, birth center deliveries, and home births. My role is to support your informed choices, comfort, and emotional wellbeing — wherever and however you choose to birth.

What is virtual birth support and how does it work?

Virtual birth support includes real-time guidance, emotional reassurance, labor coaching, breathing support, position suggestions, and continuous encouragement via video, phone, and text. I remain connected throughout active labor and delivery to support both the birthing parent and their partner.

Do you work with high-risk pregnancies or special circumstances?

Yes. I am a MEGI High Risk certified Doula . I have experience supporting clients navigating high-risk pregnancies, mental health concerns, trauma histories, substance use recovery, teen pregnancy, and complex family dynamics. My care is compassionate, judgment-free, and supportive regardless of the circumstances.

Will you replace my partner or support person?

Not at all. My role is to enhance your support system, not replace it. I guide partners on comfort measures, emotional support, advocacy, and communication so they feel confident and involved.

What happens if you miss my birth?

If I am unable to attend virtually due to emergency or technical issues, I provide continuous phone and text support and follow up with extended postpartum care to ensure you feel fully supported.

Do you offer payment plans?

Yes. Flexible payment plans are available to ensure families can access quality support without financial strain.

Do you accept insurance?

I accept select insurance plans, including Medicaid and Quartz with additional partnerships being added regularly. I also offer private-pay options, flexible payment plans, and accept HSA/FSA funds. Detailed invoices and documentation can be provided for reimbursement or employer maternity benefits when applicable.

What does trauma-informed care mean?

Trauma-informed care means I prioritize emotional safety, consent, empowerment, choice, and respect. I recognize how past experiences can impact pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, and I create a supportive environment that reduces stress and promotes confidence.

Do you provide culturally responsive care?

Yes. I honor diverse cultural traditions, family structures, and belief systems. My care is respectful, inclusive, and tailored to each family’s values and preferences.

What postpartum support do you provide?

Support may include emotional check-ins, infant care education, feeding support, recovery guidance, light household help, self-care planning, and mental health awareness.
