Hi, I’m Chantel—a birth doula, mama of two little ones, and someone who truly believes this season of life deserves to be held with care, humor, and a whole lot of heart. When I’m not supporting families, you can usually find me chasing my babies around, dancing in the kitchen, getting outside in nature, or dreaming up creative projects. I have a background in yoga and movement, which deeply shapes how I support birth—tuning into the body, finding rhythm, and creating a sense of calm and connection in the midst of it all. I came into this work because I’m passionate about helping families feel supported, seen, and confident as they step into parenthood. Birth is powerful and unpredictable, and I’m here to be a steady, grounding presence through it—offering hands-on support, encouragement, and guidance while honoring your unique path. My hope is that you feel safe to be fully yourself in this experience, and that you walk away feeling not just supported, but truly cared for.

Chantel's services were the perfect blend of professionalism and personable care. As new parents with an array of mixed emotions, we immediately felt a sense of trust and reliability upon our first meeting. Chantel provided effective communication, resourceful information, personal experience and evidence-based knowledge that allowed us to make informed decisions while she support our personal choices. I cannot imagine ensuring my 72-hour labor without her grounding and nurturing presence. Chantel was truly a rock throughout my pregnancy, labor and postpartum experience!
