Taking Root Doula Care

Certified as a birth doula through Childbirth International in 2014, my aim is to serve you and your family throughout your journey of pregnancy, birth and the postpartum period. No matter what your circumstances are, no matter what kind of birth you are planning, or what kind of birth you actually have, as your doula, I will be with you each step of the way: serving, supporting, helping, caring. I will honour you and your journey as it unfolds, holding space as you experience bringing new life into the world. It’s important to me to provide non-judgmental support and gentle, compassionate care to families of all configurations and individuals of all identities to help you birth from a place that is rooted in the support of a calm and reassuring presence. I have three teenaged children of my own and the lessons I have learned from birthing and parenting them have allowed me to come to doula work from a place of deep understanding.  My passion for this work has grown with each year that I have been a doula and as I continue to learn more and more about the miracle of birth.
