Hi! I’m Erica — I am a certified doula, Prenatal Bonding (BA) Facilitator, Clinical Hypnotherapist, Certified Hypnobirthing Educator, and doula trainer with 20 years of experience supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I’m a Certified Birth and Ayurveda Postpartum Doula, Certified Childbirth Educator, with additional credentials in Waterbirth.
At Nurture, our collaborative care team also provides elective 3D/4D ultrasounds, Pelvic Floor Physical Therapy, prenatal and postpartum massage, prenatal and mom–baby yoga, and lactation counseling, creating a truly comprehensive and nurturing environment for families at every stage of the journey.
I’ve had the privilege of serving over 1,000 families across Cincinnati, Dayton, and Northern Kentucky since 2006, providing evidence-based, heart-centered care that honors both the science and the sacredness of birth. My professional memberships include CAPPA, Birth Arts International, DONA International, and the Association for Prenatal and Perinatal Psychology and Health (APPPAH).
In addition to birth and postpartum support, I offer Hypnobirthing classes, prenatal bonding sessions, and mentorship for new doulas throughout Ohio and Northern Kentucky. My approach blends modern mind–body tools with deep emotional attunement, helping families prepare for birth with confidence, calm, and connection.
While I’ve also served in leadership roles with the Doula Advisory Group for the Ohio Board of Nursing, the Cincinnati Area Doula Society, the Buckeye Birth Coalition, and the Dayton Area Labor Support, my true passion is walking alongside families—creating space for trust, growth, and empowerment during one of life’s most transformative seasons.
If you’re looking for a doula for your birth or postpartum, or a Hypnobirthing class in Cincinnati, Dayton, or Northern Kentucky, I’d love to connect and help you prepare for a birth experience that feels grounded, supported, and uniquely yours.
