Sharina Jensen Birth & Postpartum Doula in Kuna, ID
About Sharina
Hello, My name is Sharina Jensen, and love my life in Idaho! I wear many hats in my life and love each one of them. I am married to my sweetheart and we have 3 beautiful children and 2 dogs! I have worked with supporting families and the unique challenges that a family can face with their children since I was 17. I have also had the opportunity to support couples through infertility to have a family since 2012. I believe that my desire to help build families and through becoming a mother my self has led me to Doula work. I took my training in February 2016 and haven’t looked back! There is so much beauty and excitement in pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. There is also the unexpected and I love being a support to a new family through it all. I am also a Certified Lactation Counselor, (CLC) and am happy to support any lactation needs you may have.
