Many of our journeys to pregnancy and family-building are not simple, straightforward, or easy.
You deserve care that sees what you’ve been through to get here; that is supportive of where you’ve been, where you are at, and where you would like to be.
Working with me as your birth doula means that through the length of your perinatal experience, you hold a crucial part of my heart. Each birthing person and family is unique in their wants & needs for their birth experience, and it is an honor to be able to learn who you are, what your preferences & desires may be, and to protect your right to make informed choices based on what works best for you and your family. Birth support is not work that I take lightly. It is a spiritual, emotional, and time intensive commitment that is such a gift for my spirit. I come not as a guide to make your birth how I think things “should be,” but as a witness and companion, holding the lantern up as you do the important & sacred work of bringing your baby earth-side.
It is our right as people to be empowered and have sovereignty in our reproductive journeys, and to be protected in our right to make informed & educated decisions about what happens to our bodies. In the birthing space, this may look like supporting you in advocating for your needs, and protecting your space to ensure that those who enter are supportive of your birth goals. Although I cannot promise outcomes, or to predict the future, if we work together, I will be with you through your journey with my calm, grounded, & joyful presence, to navigate and adapt to whatever arises. I will hold space for you & your family’s process, and offer evidence-based information so that you can make informed choices. During your pregnancy, we will build relationship, create birth & postpartum plans as desired, and co-create prenatal sessions to honor your priorities. During labor & delivery, I’ll be there with my bag of comfort measures, miso soup packets, and herbs, always down to roll up my sleeves & get into funky positions to offer hands-on support, position suggestions, and to tend to you in the ways that are most meaningful to you.
This work is heart-work, community work, and advocacy work. I believe that supporting and empowering birthing families can shift generations. If what I write here resonates with you and the care that you are looking for, please reach out! I wish you only wonders through your journey.
