About me

I’ve always felt naturally inclined as a nurturer to my friends, family, and pets but it wasn’t until I was pregnant with my first child in 2021 that I became interested in birth. After enduring some traumatic experiences in that birth and postpartum period I immersed myself into the birth world and started learning more and more about how tender the childbearing year really is and that it should be honored and respected. I joined a doula mentorship in 2023 and since then I have been serving women and their families through the great transition into parenthood. I also am currently studying to become a Traditional Midwife. I wholeheartedly believe birth is a sacred Rite of ​Passage and I hold deep trust in our Creators ​divine design of physiological birth. While carrying a deep reverence for the ​transformative power of birth, I will hold space, ​provide guidance, and ensure you feel nurtured ​and supported during your journey. As a pregnant woman, you carry a most precious ​Light within you. With this great gift comes great ​responsibility and as your doula I will be here to ​reassure you of your power. If my offerings align with you, I would be ​honored to sit with you in birth.
