VBAC Doulas in Jacksonville, FL

I'm Emily and I’m overjoyed to meet you during this transformational time in your lives. Walking with families through pregnancy, preparing them for and supporting them during birth is one of my greatest honors, a calling that allows me to help you feel safe, seen, and confident in the beautiful power of your body. With a background as a trained crisis counselor, EMT, perinatal researcher, and HypnoBirthing instructor, I bring a nonjudgemental, trauma-informed, and deep sense of calm compassion to your birth. During birth, I love to be that grounding energy that brings out your natural strengths, helping you to feel a deep connection with your family, and honoring the innate wisdom of your body. While supporting you, I lead with my hands and heart, with comforting massage, counter-pressure, and guiding you to find your rhythm through movement and breath! My philosophy honors both the science and the sacred, trusting that birth unfolds most beautifully when you feel emotionally supported and free from fear. Whether you’re drawn to HypnoBirthing® classes to prepare your mind and body or seeking the steady support of a birth doula, I would be honored to walk beside you.

I have lived in Florida all my life. My happy place is by the ocean listening to the waves. I am married to my college sweetheart and we have 3 beautiful, wild boys. I became fascinated by the magic and mechanics of birth during my first pregnancy in 2013. I had an emergency c-section followed by medicated and unmedicated vaginal births in 2016 and 2019. For all three, I had the same doula by my side sharing her 30+ years of wisdom. In 2023, I formalized my training and certifications and have been focusing on doula work full-time. Aside from parenting my sons, it is my biggest privilege and joy to serve mothers in this vulnerable time, and I look forward to knowing and serving you during your journey. I strongly believe it is the right of the birthing person to choose whatever path is right for them. Every body, baby and pregnancy is different. If you choose me to be by your side, my promise is to help you and your partner bring that vision to life. Knowing birth can be unpredictable, I will do everything I can to ensure you feel safe, loved, empowered and strong every step of the way.
