About Eva

I am a Jesus follower, invested mom, joyful homeschooler, a passionate Birth Doula, Christian Childbirth Educator and Breastfeeding Counselor. I accompany women in labor to help ensure a safe and satisfying birth experience. I have received education and completed training for the doula’s role from DONA International and Hartland College, School of Midwifery. I draw on my knowledge and experience to provide emotional and spiritual support, physical comfort and, as needed, communication with the staff to make sure that you have the information you need to make informed decisions in labor. I can provide reassurance and perspective to you and your partner, make suggestions for labor progress and help with relaxation, prayer, soothing touch, positioning and other techniques for comfort.

There is no way I can fully express my gratitude for Eva and the fact that I was able to have her by my side as my doula. It's no exaggeration when I say it made ALL the difference in my birth and I can't imagine what it would have been like if she was not there. Not only is Eva a skilled and experienced doula in the matters of childbirth but she is an incredible listener and support which is so critical at such a vulnerable time. She gives you the space and respect you need but is a source of strength and wisdom when you need to lean on her. She was always available, incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely respected our wishes and experience which is hard to come by these days. Everything you would hope for in an ideal doula and more. Working with her was an actual blessing from God; I will be forever grateful. Where many people in the industry can dismiss or minimize your experience, Eva sincerely cared and honored us throughout. She went above and beyond and her love for the Lord shows in her character and the reverence she brings to her clients and her calling. Anyone who works with her is incredibly lucky to have her by their side.

I cannot express how crucial Eva was in our successful unmedicated/physiological hospital birth experience. Pregnancy, birth, and postpartum is a wild adventure and having somebody as steadfast as Eva to help us navigate IT ALL made it a memorable experience. She is compassionate, knowledgeable, and has a peaceful presence. She educated my husband and I so that we could make informed decisions for ourselves and feel confident every step of the way. I particularly appreciated the attentiveness to my husband she provided during classes which allowed him to feel confident about our birth and strengthened us leading into labor. She was always responsive and supportive of our questions and decisions. I felt extremely supported emotionally and physically and appreciated our shared faith that she brought into our conversations and trainings. She will forever be a special part of our family!

Eva is such a calm presence. She is knowledgeable and resourceful during prenatal sessions. She is so supportive of the birth you wish to plan and prepare for. She is so loving, compassionate and empathetic. She was so helpful during my pregnancy, birth and postpartum care. Would absolutely include her in my birth team next time.
