A Little About Myself My name is Elise Osmun, I grew up in a small town in southern Oregon with my parents and three siblings. Over the last ten years I have made many moves in my life. My family and I left Oregon to live in San Diego California where I then attend San Diego State University to obtain a Bachelors in Psychology. While working as a professional nanny for years, I gained a beautiful community of families, mothers, and babies. I had the pleasure of meeting a doula who suggested I volunteer at the hospital birthing center to see how I liked it. I fell in love with the Doula world and went on to obtain my certification. While going through the program I realized the many other certifications that would be beneficial in helping as many people as possible. I have met my life partner and decided to join his military lifestyle. After a few moves we now have a long term home in Virginia Beach, Virginia. I have always had a strong passion for supporting families during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. Each family has their own way of parenting, needs, and values. My goal is to support you in having a non-judgmental, informed, and respected birth experience. I am committed to getting to know you throughout your pregnancy, and creating a close relationship with you before that special day. It would be an honor to support & comfort you during these most intimate and sacred moments of your life!
