I am a doula of 10 years, a Bradley Childbirth Educator of 12, and look forward to serving many families!

I am a stay-at-home mom who supports hospital and home births in North Central and North Eastern Kansas.

Hello! My name is Addison, I am currently working as an infant teacher at a daycare and have interest in becoming and overnight doula!

Are you a tired mama and need better rest and sleep? You have a newborn baby to one year old who is not sleeping well? I can help you. I am a virtual sleep consultant and get you started on getting better sleep for you and your baby. I also offer postpartum doula services, breastfeeding consulting, birth doula services, holistic nutritional services and classes for parents. Let's connect! Best way to reach me is through my website please or avemaria at gmail dot com. Thank you.

My goal as a doula is for you to have the most positive, peaceful birth experience possible. My first pregnancy brought challenges that forced me to adapt the plans I had made of how things would unfold. I was fortunate enough to be surrounded by supportive, knowledgeable women who helped me navigate these changes and still be able to say that bringing our son into the world was an amazingly positive experience! I’m passionate about helping you not only ease pregnancy discomforts, but providing the support you need to feel informed, empowered, and ready to make confident decisions for your birth experience.

As a Postpartum Doula I get to love on the super hero's of the world, mamas. I love supporting them with nurturing care, information, and a helpful presence. As a mama bear to three littles with a partner that travels more than half the year I have the experience of solo parenting and the unique challenges that brings to both the home and the relationships. I value empowering a families own innate maternal/paternal instincts within an evidence based framework. As a Nesting Doula I help families optimize the health of the home environment you're bringing your baby home to. and prepare for the transitions ahead. I help you prepare for the transitions ahead with intention and without overwhelm. Multiple services offered to customize to your own needs.

My passion as a doula is empowering pregnant women to take control of their prenatal preparation. I learned with my first pregnancy that birth is a huge physical feat, so I give you tools and simple movement exercises (that I wish I had back then!) which will train and balance your body specifically for the task at hand: pregnancy, birth, and recovery. I hired a doula for my first two births and I was SO grateful for that decision!! I gave birth at a free-standing birth center, with the support of her and my spouse. If it wasn't for my doula, I know I would not have made it through the marathon of labor! I came away feeling supported and strong. I was certified as a doula in 2016 and then in 2022 trained as a Body Ready Method Pro & Childbirth Educator. My wish is for everyone to be able to bring their baby into the world feeling supported, cared for, and prepared. I believe in the empowerment that comes from taking charge of your own labor which reveals a deeper strength you didn't know was there. You deserve a strong support system so that you can have a beautiful birth experience.
