About Christina

I am a birth worker since 2012, I have provided a variety of services in a variety of settings around the world. I am located in Toronto, Canada, but I am available to travel for minimum one month commitments. I have worked in Macau & Hong Kong, Manila, Nairobi, Vancouver, and Guadalajara, and have a global perspective on birth physiology and traditions. I provide trauma-informed, and culturally safe care, be it education, lactation support, birth and postpartum doula services, or midwifery care. I’m available as a midwife only where a license isn’t required. My approach is very collaborative—rather than “save” you from unsafe practitioners, I prefer to work with you comprehensively in the prenatal period to be sure you have the environment you need for a peaceful and satisfying (physiologic, if possible) birth. My years and depth of experience and knowledge sets me apart from most locally-focused doulas, so I tend to work well with expats and globe-trotters like myself. My happy place is home in Ontario in the near North, at the cottage that has been a part of my family’s experience for 100+ years. I love all animals but especially dogs, and I ADORE drinking coffee and discussing big ideas.

If you want the best, hire Christy. Where to begin? We LOVED working with Christy. If you’re reading these reviews wondering if you should have her as your doula, you definitely should. Our experience with Christy was nothing short of extraordinary. After the birth, I described Christy to my husband as our angel - as it felt that she magically appeared and blended in, giving just the right level of support and guidance, without being overbearing or intrusive. Her presence felt very natural and she completely put myself and my husband at ease. Christy played a pivotal role in helping me establish breastfeeding, which really helped set us up for success with feeding, and having her there to help with this immediately after the birth was invaluable. After our daughter was born, Christy continued to check in with us, and we felt extremely well looked after. She is clearly an expert both in caring for mothers in the postpartum period, but also in caring for newborns, and her years of experience meant we felt in very capable hands. Her dedication to postpartum care is unmatched, and her deep understanding of the emotional and physical needs of both the birthing person and their partner is truly remarkable. Christy’s passion for what she does shines through in every interaction, and her knowledge in perinatal care is both comforting and empowering. I give Christy my highest recommendation – any family would be very lucky to have her as part of their parenting journey!

I could not be more grateful to Christina who was my birth doula in Jan 2024! Not only did she take me very late in my pregnancy for a VBAC, but her confidence, energy and knowledge helped me to prepare for birth both physically and mentally. Her approach resonates with me a lot. She helped me advocate for myself in the hospital and ensured I made informed decisions without sabotaging the hospital. Thanks Christina for making my VBAC a reality, I could not have done it without your support! ❤️

I cannot imagine going through this life changing experience without Christy. She became part of our family. She is kind, patient and extremely knowledgeable. I had postpartum anxiety and Christy was one of the only people I trusted with my newborn. I highly recommend her services, not only is she an amazing birth worker but she is just an amazing human and we all love her (our dogs included).

Frequently asked questions

Do you have liability insurance

Yes, I am covered by a group policy through the Association of Ontario Doulas

Do you offer discounts or sliding scale?

No. Doula work is hard on my body and my family support system, so I need my work to count towards a predictable income. However if my fee is high to pay all at once I'm happy to arrange a payment plan, provided the fee is paid in full by the 37th week gestation. I do do pro bono work periodically, with referrals from care providers. Please see https://ontariodoulas.org/probono-request/ for more details.

Do you work with Carrot Fertility Insurance?

Yes I have worked with clients who use Carrot many times. I'm not currently listed on their website because it's been more than a year since I had a Carrot client, but it is relatively simple to re-register with them, so don't let that stop you from hiring me.

What is included in your birth doula package?

*Two prenatal visits to focus on birth preparation. This will be education focused, and tailored to your specific needs. We'll also sort out what your preferences are for birth so you can create a useful document you can provide to your providers as a "birth plan." Each visit is 2-3 hours in your home. *One postnatal visit, usually around 4 days after birth. This will focus on fine-tuning infant feeding, normalizing how you're "supposed" to feel after birth, and addressing any and all concerns and fears with postpartum bodies, newborn care, and even how to deal with family/visitors. *Unlimited text/email/phone support. This is during business hours and for non-urgent questions, concerns, regarding your pregnancy, birth preparation, postpartum concerns, breastfeeding and newborn concerns. From contract signing until 6 weeks postpartum. *ON-CALL TIME--from 37 weeks until birth (or 42 weeks gestation if you make it!) I do not travel more than 2h away from home so I can be available for your birth *Birth support--usually a combination of phone/text and in person support, based on the client's needs, the phase of labour, mode of delivery, and how many hours I've been awake and on my feet--I've never had to call in back up support this way, by carefully and logically budgeting my energy during long births. That means that if you have a 36 hour labour I won't be by your side for 36 hours, but I'll be there for the parts where you need me physically present.

Do you use 12 hour language in your contract?

No. I recognize that this model works for some doulas to not burn out. If I find that I'm getting close to exhaustion at a birth I will either find a time/place to nap, or I'll call in a back up doula. Usually between me and the family, my time needed to recharge does not disturb the birth process at all. With that in mind, I often don't aim to be with my clients from their first contraction. What people need is highly personal, so I'm happy to personalize my support as long as I'm able to keep myself going.

First Nations, Inuit, Metis

I provide free in person birth support to any survivor, child, or grandchild of a survivor of Canada's residential school system, forced relocation or 60s Scoop. I am not myself Indigenous. I am a settler with 300 year roots in this area. As such, I have taken extensive cultural competency & cultural humility education in an attempt at Reconciliation, re: the 94 Calls to Action from the 2015 TRC report. I will fight like a mother bear to protect Indigenous clients from further harm by this system.
