I started my journey as a doula in 2002, taking the birth doula training through DONA. I became certified through DONA and then CAPPA in 2006. In 2015 I trained with Doula Training Canada and am now certified with them. They are a wonderful organization based in Canada. I have attended 84 births to date and have experience supporting women in both home and hospital settings. As a doula I do not replace your partner, but I enable your partner to experience the birth and support you in the way they are most comfortable, while offering your partner support as well. I work for you, not the hospital. Included in my services are 2 prenatal visits, the birth and up to 2 hours postpartum support after the birth, 2 postpartum in-home visits, a birth story (from my perspective) if you choose. You are welcome to contact me anytime with any questions or concerns and I will help you to find the information that you need, or just to listen and support you. I support clients in all of Huron County, no matter where you plan to give birth to your baby. Feel free to message me for further information or to set up a non-obligatory meeting to meet me and to learn about my services.
