Birth Doula Support
There is nothing quite as remarkable as birthing a baby (or babies) into this world. My hope for you is that you can approach that moment feeling grounded, supported and empowered. As a doula I offer physical and emotional support for the birthing person and can be a resource as you navigate the many questions that arise when expecting a baby. I will encourage you to lean on your intuition and find your voice. As I hold this space alongside you, know that I will be your biggest champion and advocate.
What’s Included:
- 3 prenatal visits
- Continuous support throughout labor

Postpartum Doula Support
Nourishment and care after birth is vitally important, not only to the immediate task of caring for a newborn, but also for the trajectory of the birthing person’s health in the years to come. As a former culinary professional with a deep passion for nutrition, I focus on supporting that recovery time through essential nutrition, herbal remedies, rest, and attentive listening. I would be honored to accompany you during this delicate time, providing additional support and imparting practical skills as you navigate the challenges of caring for a newborn. Nothing gives me more joy than supporting parents as they do the beautiful, challenging work of caring for a new life.
What’s Included:
- 4-6 hour daytime shifts
- Each shift can expect some of the following depending on clients’ needs:
- One nourishing meal to eat and at least one meal/snack for later
- Baby care so parent(s) can rest
- Light housekeeping
- Lactation support
- Herbal support (sitz baths, teas, etc.)
