I am a wife, homeschooling mother of two, and minister. While I was pregnant with my oldest son, I started my journey to become a labor and postpartum doula. As a doula, I have been professionally trained to provide you with the best support possible. I am highly knowledgeable in pain management techniques and I strive to be available to my clients twenty-four hours a day so that they may express their fears or concerns and answer any questions that they may have. While I do not provide any type of medical care, I am knowledgeable in the medical aspect of labor and delivery so I may help my clients get a better understanding of procedures and complications that may arise in late pregnancy or during delivery. I also offer peer breastfeeding support, emotional support, and physical support to my clients during the postpartum period. My goal is to help the family have a positive and safe birth experience, whether they want an un-medicated birth or are having a planned cesarean. I also hope to help ease the transition into parenthood. I have been trained and certified in infant CPR, Adult CPR, AED, and Emergency First Aid. I have also completed training with Rockefeller University's professional development program in early childhood education and earned several certifications.
