A doula is a trained professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to their client before, during and shortly after childbirth to help them achieve the healthiest, most satisfying experience possible. https://dona.org/what-is-a-doula/
There are a multitude of studies that document women having higher positive birth outcomes, reducing their need for pain-relief medication, decrease risk for a cesarean birth, and just an overall positive birth experience. This, in turn, helps women enter their motherhood journey in an already empowered and positive mindset.

I bring a steady, grounding and uplifting presence during times of anxiousness or uncertainty - helping to keep you cool, calm, collected and focused as you work to bring life into this world. I will provide you with physical support (counter-pressure/massage, positioning/movement, breathwork, nourishment) and emotional support (affirmations, prayer, fear management, partner/support person reassurance) during the labor and delivery process. After birth I will not leave your side until you feel safe, comfortable and settled with 1-2 visits during your first month postpartum!
