Here’s the heart and soul of our agency: a team of doulas who believe in strength through softness and community in every season. 🍂

👉🏼 The magic of our work begins with the way we care for one another. Collaboration, connectedness, sharing wisdom and ideas, validating and listening are all pieces of the puzzle.

When doulas support doulas, families feel that ripple of compassion and steadiness. 🌳

This is [some of] our team: grounded, dedicated & here to walk with you through every step of your birth journey.

Together, we get to create the kind of support *every* family deserves!!

Preparing for birth isn't just about positions or breathing (though we’ll cover those too).

In Holistic Prep for Birth, we go deeper and blend science, intuition and the nervous system wisdom that makes birth *work*.

🦋 You’ll learn how to tune into your body, connect with your partner and create an environment where oxytocin is flowing and confidence follows you each step of the way.

You'll walk away knowing all your options. Whether you have a birth plan in mind already or not, we will meet you where you're at with complete respect and compassion.

From evidence-based tools 🔬 like body positioning and birth hormones to holistic practices 🌿 that ground, calm and reconnect you with your instincts...
✨ This class helps you prepare not just for birth, but for the transformation that follows. ✨

This class is for:
📚 The parent who wants more than “textbook prep.”
💫 The partner who wants to know how to help.
🌀 The birth that’s guided by both trust and knowledge.

Registration for Holistic Prep for Birth is open now!
**Your calm, connected birth starts here.**

👉🏼 Visit our website for upcoming dates (stay tuned for more 2026 dates to come).

We believe in being a community anchor. We not only have the families we serve in mind, but also our local birth worker population 💚 This month we hosted a doula gathering to foster deeper connections and trade resources + support. New and seasoned doulas exchanged perspective, questions, insight and definitely some laughter. Thank you for trusting us to be a safe container and companion.

Anyone ready for us to plan another one?? 🥰 Let me know and we will make it happen!

With gratitude,
Allison

Seeing a teammate/friend "out in the wild" is the best 🥰 HBB doula + postpartum group facilitator and I crossed paths at a local hospital last week...

When you run into each other at the ice machine in the middle of the night, do a placenta exchange between careful hands, and give your backup doula a thorough report so she can come in with the full gas tank the family deserves -- that's what I like to call, meeting each other "out in the wild." 🏞️

👉🏼 We don't work a typical 'job.' Amongst the scheduled coffee date, group or class you're leading together or continuing education workshop you're sharing snacks at, THIS is the spontaneous + raw "wild," where you get to see each other *doing* the on call work.

Always a pleasure to get a glimpse ✨💚🫶🏼

Our doula team is so passionate about what we do. Please know that you can reach out anytime 🌞

Meet Allison

Hi, I'm Allison. I am a doula, Birth Story Listener and Certified Lactation Educator. I am very passionate about women's health, the birth journey and supporting families.

I have always felt empowered by the women around me, and passing on that strength and support to other women is very special to me. Mothers and babies have been a passion of mine since I was young. The very first birth I witnessed was at a maternity clinic in Palampur, India a few years ago. This beautiful moment set my heart on fire and confirmed my passion for mothers and their babies. I have been blessed with my experience with infants and mothers, as I work as an LNA in the Special Care Nursery (Level II NICU). My doula training began in August of 2017, and I continue to attain different skills and experiences.

Providing warmth and unconditional love for mothers, their partners and the family as a whole is an honor. Being part of such a vulnerable, intimate experience is extraordinary and something I truly cherish. I am observant, compassionate, resourceful and attentive. I live in Goffstown, New Hampshire with my family. When I'm not at a birth or meeting with clients, you can find me spending time with my family, friends and houseplants.
