In Austin area hospitals, overstretched staff means nurses often juggle two patients at once and rarely have time for real hands-on support—especially if you’re planning an unmedicated birth. Continuous comfort, encouragement, and guidance often just aren’t possible in this busy setting.
With your doula by your side (also a trained midwife), you receive continuous attention, advocacy, and expert care, even when hospital staff are pulled in every direction. Don’t face an Austin hospital birth alone - with your doula by your side, you won’t be just another patient waiting for help on one of the biggest days of your life.

A positive birth looks different for everyone, and how you feel about your birth matters most. I’m a former hospital-based midwife from Ireland with over 12 years of experience training doulas and supporting families through all types of births. I offer compassionate, evidence-based care with a special focus on maternal mental health and emotional well-being.
As a practicing Catholic mother, I provide respectful, faith-sensitive support for families who wish to honor their spiritual values during pregnancy and birth. Whether that includes prayer, sacred intention, or simply having someone who shares your worldview, I’m here to support you.
I’m also the author of several books on pregnancy and breastfeeding and the founder of two internationally used pregnancy apps. I’d be honored to support your growing family.
Looking forward to learning about how I can support you during this important time in your life.
Tracy
