Hello! My name is Madi and I’m a birth and postpartum doula. I felt a calling to become a doula since having my daughter in 2022, but I worked in nursing for 5 years in different specialties, not knowing I would go the holistic route. ❤️ I finally took a leap of faith, attended a DONA training, and have been educating myself on all things birth since. I love to support mothers and fathers in pregnancy and beyond, and hope to bring you peace, blessings and empowerment.

Hi! I’m Annika and I am excited to support you through your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey.

I have always been drawn to newborns, infants, children of all ages, and their families. There is a richness in family life that always brings about such a great sense of wonder and awe. There is a way a baby or toddler looks back at you and you know they don’t care what color your hair is, how many wrinkles you have, if you are overweight, underweight, or have zero sense of style. They just know how to LOVE. It is that unconditional love and trust in a baby’s eyes that instilled a strong desire in my heart to protect this innocence and trust by providing families with care providers they could trust. Care that is always gentle, loving, slowly paced, curious, and joyful. We want to bring this into your home.
