Hi, my name is Wendy, a full-spectrum holistic Birth and Postpartum Doula driven by a personal mission: to ensure no mother feels unheard or unsupported during birth, as I once did. My passion is to provide unwavering love and care during this sacred and intimate time. I offer comprehensive support as a birth and postpartum doula, lactation, childbirth educator, sibling doula, HypnoBirthing Educator, and a special place in my heart for young mothers. My practice is built on empowerment, evidence-based knowledge, compassion, and a non-judgmental, client-led approach. You’ll find me to be a calm, empathetic, and supportive presence, dedicated to fostering a nurturing and professional environment for your journey, as well as supporting the family as a whole. As a mother of two, I deeply understand the transformative power of birth and the beauty of motherhood.

We had a harder than expected go during our first child with multiple sleepless nights and really wanted to have a better support framework for our second. Having Wendy as our nighttime doula was an amazing experience. She started a few days after our daughter was born and was crucial support for the first two months. Having her allowed my wife to make a faster recovery post birth and have her enjoy the baby a lot more. She is very professional, responsible, punctual and knowledgeable. After the first day which is always scary, we felt incredibly comfortable with her being with our baby. We highly recommend her. It made the newborn phase a lot of a better experience and my wife and I were both way more functioning and present for our little one. Being able to have the nights to fully rest is priceless and makes everything about life significantly better.

Haley is the absolute best! We were extremely nervous and anxious first time parents who had a rough labor and could not have gotten through those first weeks (that turned into months) without Haley. Haley taught us so much and was such a comfort to know our child was in safe hands. What’s great about Haley is she truly loves baby care and is an expert in it. She can recommend techniques and products and give great recommendations all around. Haley makes you feel confident in both yourself and her care and we cannot wait to have Haley back when we have baby number 2.

My passion and dream as a doula is to create a loving environment – whether that be in a hospital or in your own home – that supports you to “birth your own way.” My role is to help you settle into the birthing experience, offer insights, remind you of your divine nature and innate intelligence, trust and support your decisions and to be a witness to you bringing your beautiful soul baby earth-side, as safely and as gentle as possible. I am available for in home customizable support, to provide the ultimate luxurious birthing experience of your dreams. Doulas strive to provide continuous labor support, and studies have shown that when a women has this continuous support there will be a higher rate of a normal vaginal birth, less likely to have pain medication, less negative feelings, and less Cesareans. Labors are also typically shorter and the baby will less likely to have complications at birth. The presence of a Doula can also be helpful in sharing the partner responsibility allowing them to be more at ease, more present to enjoy the wonder of birth I offer 18+ years of bodywork experience that can begin with massage sessions leading up to your due date. Massage in pregnancy has shown to create better sleep, decrease anxiety and depression, aid in fewer complications during labor and have an overall more positive experience during the first few weeks after birth. I feel comfortable in the ebb and flow and view the birthing process as both very physical and spiritual experience.
