About me

Nurturing and passionate Birth Doula devoted to serving families throughout pregnancy, labor and postpartum. Believer in physiological birth and the power behind a prepared, informed and educated mother. My goal is to help all mothers achieve their dream births regardless of circumstances or path that their pregnancy might take them. I am a wife and a mother to two beautiful little boys who are my greatest accomplishments. I enjoy taking my boys to the park, gardening with them, going to the museum and having them bake alongside me in the kitchen. As long as it's sunny we like to spend the majority of our time outdoors. I am extremely passionate about health and wellness and prioritize the gym 4-5 nights a week, always training for those hip squeezes! I can't wait to get to know you!

100% recommend Katie. She was invaluable member to my birth team. As a first time mom, Katie was able to provide me with a safe sounding board for all of my questions, resources to point me towards to further my own edu and preparedness throughout my pregnancy. She was able to provide us physical, emotional, spirtual support throughout the pregnancy, labor and postpartum. Im confident to report she is a huge reason I was able to birth naturally, labor at home for as long as possible and start my labor spontaneously. She guided me step by step on what to do in each stage of labor and was a confident and appropriate advocate for me in the hospital.
