I’m a mom of two boys and a girl, and my own birth experiences, including an emergency C-section as a teen mom and two natural VBACs with minimal support led me to appreciate the power of advocacy and understanding evidence-based care. I believe in calm, respectful, and empowering support for the whole family and I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where parents feel more connected, heard, informed, and confident in their choices. In my free time, I enjoy being active with my kids, going to the beach or to our favorite sunset spots! As well as time in our single mom support groups.

My goal is to provide calm, steady support so that you feel informed, grounded, and cared for throughout pregnancy, labor, and the early postpartum period. As a mother of nine children with a range of birth experiences, I have a deep respect for the intensity and vulnerability of birth and the importance of continuous support. Birth is demanding, meaningful work, and compassionate support can make a profound difference in how families experience it.

It would be an honor to walk alongside you during such an important moment in your family’s story.

Choosing a doula is about finding someone you feel safe with, supported by, and truly listened to.

My goal is to create a calm, steady presence so parents can focus on welcoming their baby with confidence. I am a certified Postpartum Doula, a DONA trained Birth Doula, a Lactation Specialist, and VBAC certified. I also have training in techniques such as Spinning Babies, the Miles Circuit, and a variety of labor positions and comfort measures that can help support progress and reduce discomfort during labor. My role during birth is to help create a calm environment, offer practical comfort techniques, and support both the birthing person and their partner so they feel informed and empowered throughout the experience. After birth, my focus shifts to helping families rest, recover, and adjust to life with their new baby. Postpartum support can include newborn care guidance, feeding support, emotional encouragement, and helping parents find their rhythm during those early weeks. Every family is different, and I meet people where they are and support them in the ways that feel most helpful to them. I proudly accept Medicaid as well as private pay so that more families can access doula support during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Supporting families during this time is truly meaningful work to me, and I feel honored to be invited into such an important moment in people’s lives.
