About me

I am a proud mommy of one and I love children! I received formal birth and postpartum doula training from Mama Glow. I also received formal placenta encapsulation training from The Mothership NYC. I worked in healthcare for over eight years, including roles as an abortion doula, tissue surgeon, and a (women’s health) patient care advocate. I am passionate about service and wellness. I am a firm believer that birth should not be a traumatic experience. It is my goal to empower you to make informed decisions around the health of you and your baby. We will work together to explore mindfulness techniques, comfort measures, and ensure your toolkit is well equipped for a positive birthing experience. I am happy to discuss breastfeeding techniques, create a postpartum plan, provide herbs/natural remedies, and help you design a birth plan. I look forward to supporting you on this journey to parenthood!

I provide prenatal care to expecting mothers and birthing people. I also provide labor and delivery support in all settings (birth center, home, or hospital). I provide postpartum care and adjustment support. In addition to doula care, I also provide optional placenta encapsulation services, herbal/holistic education, and plant-based meal prep services.
