About Lindsay

Hello! My name is Lindsay. I'm a certified birth and traditional postpartum doula in Utah County and have been supporting families since 2017. I believe pregnancy, birth, and new parenthood are physical events, and also deeply emotional and spiritual ones—a great becoming. Because of this, my work is mother-centered, and blanketed in ritual and ceremony. You deserve to be held and witnessed. When I'm not working with postpartum families, you'll find me spending time with my three children, dreaming about traveling the world, and singing and knitting with my community.

What to expect

The first 40 days postpartum are an important part of integration, healing, and coming back to yourself after pregnancy and birth. Tending to your physical, emotional, and spiritual needs during this transition is vitally important. It is my honor to witness you on your journey. Together we create your postpartum care plan, centering the 5 universal postpartum needs—nourishing foods, gentle body care, warmth, community, and rest. My package includes weekly in-home visits for the first 5-6 weeks, and each visit is tailored to your specific needs for that week. Care could include: warming foods, herbal foot soak/bath, sound healing, gentle yoga, guided meditation, birth processing, light house work, and so much more!

We’ve been lucky to have Lindsay as our birth doula for all three of our kids, and most recently as a postpartum doula. I had a hard time understanding why I’d want a postpartum doula with my first two births, but I’m SO glad I went for it this time around! Having Lindsay come over was a highlight of those first few weeks. She came with her arms full of food, teas, cozy cushions, sound bath instruments, etc. Each week she’d bring food that I picked from the menu (all of it was so delicious and nourishing), and would guide me thru whatever session I had chosen (sound bath, gentle movement/stretching, guided meditation, closing of the bones ceremony). She has a very calming energy about her and I just feel at peace when she’s around. She helped around the house while she was here like washing the dishes, sorting and folding laundry, things that pile up in the busy-ness of having a newborn. She is truly a delight to work with and I’m forever grateful that she was here for us during the most important events of our lives.

Lindsay truly made our birthing experience so much more sacred, special, and meaningful than I could have imagined. We hired her to help both my husband and I navigate this transition better than we had in the past (this was our third child), and she did just that. But she provided so much more than that! She met with us throughout my pregnancy and helped us be intentional about what we wanted -- fully and unconditionally supporting us each step of the way. Because of that, we both deeply loved this birth. We felt prepared and empowered to make this birth what we wanted. Lindsay has many gifts that make her an especially gifted doula -- she brings a positive, calm energy. She was good at encouraging me to stand up for myself without pushing any agenda. I felt really seen and celebrated in vulnerable moments. She was also very good at education. I learned a lot from her and she consistently provided me with reliable research when I had questions. She clearly is an expert at birth! She was responsive, kind, and thoughtful! She also sent us a timeline of my labor and birth after the fact--this was so meaningful to me. I could not recommend Lindsay more! I wish I could have had her at every one of my births.

I would highly recommend this course if you're looking for a birth prep class that goes beyond just "how to push" and pain coping techniques and into mental and spiritual preparation for labor, birth and parenthood. Lindsay is knowledgeable, warm, and sensitive. She provides a safe place to explore beliefs, fears, and hopes for labor, and beyond. This course is also excellent for partners! My husband thoroughly enjoyed the course and I imagine we'll take it again for subsequent pregnancies.
