Being a doula is so much more than cuddling babies. It’s even more than witnessing the miracle of life! For me, it’s the impactful conversations that happen in birth prep when we uncover some buried fears. Or the unprompted script when you feel like you have nothing left to give in labour. It’s the calling you out when you’re self sabotaging or resource sourcing when breastfeeding is too much. It’s the low key cheerleading and necessary validation when your mom can’t be there for you. The middle of the night chats, the “talk me off this ledge” chat or the “please don’t judge me” chat (which by the way, I don’t). Doula work is tough sometimes. It calls for complex conversations that couldn’t possibly be black and white, asking hard questions and a lot of listening. So if you’re looking for a friend, a sister, even a motherly figure with a good sense of humour but definitely won’t sugar coat it; I might be your girl.

Lately, I’ve had so many mothers reach out for help—often with an apology.
 ✨ “I’ve waited so long for this baby, I shouldn’t be struggling.”
 ✨ “My husband needs rest, I feel bad needing support.”

But here’s the truth:
We were never meant to do motherhood alone.
 For generations, women leaned on sisters, maidens & seasoned mothers to raise babies together.
This is why I feel so called to postpartum work.
 💛 If you don’t have a village—welcome to ours.

Raising our own little ones while supporting families on their parenting journeys has given us such a deep appreciation for what it really takes to not just parent—but to thrive as parents. 💛

I’ve learned that strong, happy couples are built on open communication and clear boundaries from the very beginning. These are some of the questions I asked (or would ask) my partner as we prepared to welcome children.

✨ What questions do you think are important for couples to ask each other before becoming parents? I’d love to hear your thoughts in the comments!

✨ Because birth is big. It’s overwhelming, raw, and beautifully messy. And that’s okay.
Sometimes it feels like too much — like you couldn’t possibly take one more wave. Those feelings are real and valid.
But don’t stay stuck there. Feel it. Breathe it in. Yell, cry, get mad if you need to. And then… let it go.
Come back into your body. Anchor into your strength. And keep moving forward — your baby is waiting for you on the other side. 💛

🌿 Prenatal Support That Honours You 🌿

Whether you’re planning a home birth, a hospital birth, a medicated birth, or something in between — this group prenatal class is designed to support your vision, your body, and your instincts.

Led by a seasoned doula, this class blends evidence-based education with intuitive practices so you can feel informed, empowered, and supported—no matter your birth goals, care provider, or location.

✨ We’ll explore:
* How to move with your body (not against it) through labor
* What your hormones are doing — and how to work with them
* How partners can provide real, grounded support (no awkward back rubbing here!)
* Practical, hands-on comfort techniques
* AND a clear breakdown of medical pain relief options — because informed choices are powerful choices

You deserve a birth experience that feels centered in you. Let’s build that foundation together. 💛

📍Spots are limited — message to reserve yours or learn more.

I hope you’ve come across recent reel on birth trauma awareness week. Her powerful message needed to be said again & have a permanent place on this page. If we want to fight for maternal mental health, we have to first fight for better prenatal and postpartum care for our mothers. Birth trauma starts and stops in our hospitals. It starts and stops in our midwifery appointments. It starts and stops in the type of postpartum nurturing that we provide here at The Doula Tree. You are so deserving of a birth experience that leaves you feeling empowered, regardless of the outcome. And if you are looking for that type of experience, I would love to connect with you.
