About me

Hi, I'm Erika! I'm a Pennsylvania State Certified Birth and Postpartum Doula, CPR certified, and passionate about helping families feel informed, supported, and empowered throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum journey. Since 2021, I've had the privilege of supporting more than 70 families through birth and postpartum, providing compassionate, evidence-based care tailored to each family's unique needs. Whether you're planning an unmedicated birth, epidural, induction, cesarean birth, or simply looking for someone to guide and encourage you along the way, my goal is to create a safe, judgment-free space where you feel heard, respected, and confident in your decisions. In addition to birth support, I provide overnight postpartum care, helping families adjust to life with a newborn by offering newborn care, breastfeeding support, emotional encouragement, education, and allowing parents the opportunity to rest and recover. My overnight shifts are designed to bring peace of mind during one of life's biggest transitions. My background also includes experience working in hospital settings, giving me a strong understanding of the healthcare system while allowing me to effectively collaborate with nurses, physicians, midwives, and other members of your care team. I believe birth is deeply personal, and every family deserves individualized support that honors their goals, values, and preferences. As your doula, I strive to be a calming presence, a trusted advocate, an educator, and a source of unwavering support, from pregnancy through the fourth trimester. It is truly an honor to walk alongside families during such a meaningful chapter of their lives, and I look forward to helping you feel confident, supported, and empowered every step of the way.

Frequently asked questions

What is a doula?

A doula is a trained professional who provides continuous emotional, physical, and educational support during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. My role is to help you feel informed, supported, and empowered while working alongside your healthcare team.

What is the difference between a doula and a midwife?

A midwife is a medical provider who delivers babies and manages medical care. A doula does not provide medical care but focuses on comfort, education, advocacy, and emotional support throughout your journey.

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

Yes! I support families planning hospital births, birth center births, and home births.

Can I still have a doula if I want an epidural?

Absolutely! Doulas support all birth preferences. Whether you're planning an unmedicated birth, epidural, induction, or cesarean birth, my role is to support your choices and help you have a positive birth experience.

What is overnight postpartum care?

Overnight postpartum care allows parents to rest while I provide attentive newborn care throughout the night. Services may include feeding support, diaper changes, soothing, newborn care, light baby-related tasks, and education to help you feel confident caring for your baby.

How long are overnight postpartum shifts?

Overnight postpartum shifts are typically 8–10 hours, depending on your family's needs.

Do you care for multiples?

Yes! I have experience supporting families welcoming twins and understand the unique challenges and joys that come with caring for multiple newborns.
