Find a Doula Near Me in East Lansing, MI

I found my passion for birth work in 2024 after having a triumphant unmedicated VBAC with my second child. I spent the year working closely with a Certified Professional Midwife handling midwifery administration and birth assisting. In my personal life, I have spent years as a patient advocate for chronically ill family members, and I understand the intricacies of navigating the healthcare system. Having an ideal birth looks different for each individual. My goal is to provide support and advocacy to enable my clients to achieve the birth of their dreams, whatever that may look like.

Hey badass birthing warrior! I'm a mom of two tiny humans, a certified Birth Doula, Birth Photographer and Childbirth Educator serving expectant families throughout Southeast Michigan. I usually serve within an hour of Jackson, MI. I got my start in birth work by being a wedding and family photographer first. Then on Pinterest, I found birth photography photos and I thought it was beautiful. So I got into birth photography and was hooked. Then after I had my first kid, I took a birth doula training and realized that this was my calling. Not everyone has an empowering birth story and I want to help change the cultural attitude around birth by making them excited, (It's okay to be a little nervous!), confident and prepared for birth. Birth is a transformational experience for both the birthing person and their partner.

Hi! I'm a Birth Doula and a Pediatric Sleep Consultant in Lansing, MI. The root for my interest in supporting women during birth started years ago when a neighbor told me the story of her natural birth (with a doula!). It planted a seed of fascination that eventually led to me certifying as a doula and becoming a student midwife. I love birth, and I support all kinds of births as a doula. I believe having extra support prenatally and during birth is 100% worth it. And as a sleep consultant, I help babies, toddlers, and families get better rest so they can be happier people during waking hours.
