I am a Mom of 4 adult children and a Mema to 4 beautiful grandchildren. I have been a RN in Labor & Delivery, NBN, Postpartum, Antepartum and Lactation for over 30 years. I am also a certified labor and postpartum doula through CAPPA since 2021. I began my business, Mema D's Doula Services in March 2021, serving expectant and new parents throughout Central Wisconsin. I strive to educate and empower couples in anticipation of the birth experience they desire. Besides my doula certification, I am also a Lamaze certified Childbirth Educator and an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC).

I offer support and education before, during and after the birth of your baby. I provide in-office and in-home lactation consults. I offer FREE postpartum support groups for Mom's and baby's with weight checks available. I will help help siblings get ready for the arrival of the new baby. No matter what your financial background may be, you can benefit from hiring a doula. Birth doulas provide excellent support and care for you before, during, and shortly after your birth. Studies show that Moms who use a birth doula are also less likely to need interventions and have an overall more positive experience with their birth. Likewise, postpartum doulas provide great emotional and practical support to new parents after the birth of their baby. Postpartum doulas can teach you helpful tips for infant care while supporting you in your adjustment to new parenthood. Couples who use postpartum doulas have better breast/bodyfeeding outcomes as well as improved postpartum mental health.
