Greetings & congratulations on your growing family <3 I have been a birth worker for the past ten years and have served families in a variety of locations, from a free standing birth center on the Arizona/Sonora border as an apprentice midwife, to home & hospital births all around the bay area. I approach this work from a place of trusting the mother/birthing person as an expert in their needs and experience and believing that given the right tools and support a family can advocate for the birth experience they want in any location. My approach is to prepare for labor with education in the prenatal period and work my clients to plan adequately for a postpartum that will nourish integration of this new phase of life.

I have always been passionate about doing work that provides deep, meaningful support. After years of working as a nanny, and my own experience in becoming a mother, I found the support for new parents to be nearly non-existent. When my kids were born I felt very unprepared and alone. I became a doula because I know how hard postpartum is. I know how it feels to be exhausted, overwhelmed, and unsure of yourself as a new parent. I also know it doesn't have to feel that way. My business was brought to life because of my passion for helping new families not just survive those early postpartum days and weeks, but to thrive. You don't need to do this alone. As a new parent, you deserve as much nurturing care and community as your baby. I want parents everywhere to flourish during postpartum. You deserve to be heard, cared for, and allowed to rest. Being able to provide non-judgmental support, warmth, and ease some of the stress of those early days of parenthood is truly my passion and a dream come true. When I'm not caring for amazing families you'll find me enjoying my kids, our two cats, reading, and gardening.

My journey in birth work started at age 12, when I had the unique experience of catching my little sister. At age 22, I started my work as a volunteer doula in Vermont, serving members in the community who lacked support. My early volunteer work gave me a deep understanding of how hospitals function, and how to work with medical staff towards the best possible outcomes for parent and child. In 2023, I was trained and certified through DONA, with mentorship by Penny Bussell Stansfield and Dr. Teri Nava-Anderson. Having been through two training programs has given me a diverse range of strategies to draw upon in our prenatal planning sessions and during your labor and birth! I have been honored to participate in many birth stories, each with unique circumstances and goals. I have experience supporting medicated and unmedicated vaginal births, scheduled and emergent Cesarean births with first, second, and fourth-time parents, queer parents, low-income parents, autistic parents, non-native English-speaking parents, sexual assault survivors, people with depression, and parents of color. I am a member of the queer community and this has strengthened my belief that all bodies deserve respectful, compassionate, and culturally humble care.
