Did you know that the word doula comes from the Greek root word δούλος, (doulos)? It means “to serve.”
A doula embodies the gift of being present. A doula is whatever the moment asks of her.

I support a woman's physiology. Stress is a healthy physiological response when we are frightened, so it is an important component to how I serve couples to hold space for their fear and stress, to process it out, in order to have a healthy relationship with it during the pregnancy, birth, and parenthood journey
My educational background is in Family Life Education so my general approach to birth is seeing it as a holistic experience that includes all of life’s experiences, all parts of the self, and both partners individually and corporately as members of an ecosystem

Mother Blessing
$175 *Rate subject to change
Please ask about a private mother blessing event. I love hosting them for my mamas at a small added cost.
This event is a celebration of life and love, pregnancy and motherhood, in a tranquil, sacred, and love-filled atmosphere.
It has evolved from a traditional Navajo ceremony concerned with healing, creation, harmony, and peace, in appreciation for and in honor of the mother-to-be.
A Mother Blessing helps mama to prepare herself for the birth— emotionally, spiritually and mentally.
Together with a small circle of women whom she is closest with, we facilitate an environment where mama feels ‘held’ and “lifted”— to be free so she can embrace what is to come.
