As a doula I strive to meet the individual needs of my clients through close communication and nurturing support. I embrace labour and birth as natural processes through which families are built and strengthened with compassionate support.

Services: I offer private childbirth education consultations, help with birth and postpartum planning, help with basic newborn care, assistance with breastfeeding, and labour support techniques. In addition, I have a library of evidence-based research and reference materials, information on how to effectively communicate with your caregiving team, and visual aids. Part of helping women through their birth experience is helping their partners support them. I encourage partners to help women to their comfort level.
