As a birth doula, I provide emotional, physical support & education during
pregnancy, labor & postpartum. I work with families before BirthDay by
providing education about choices, I teach comfort measures for labor, and I
help build confidence in a woman's ability to give birth. I stay with you from
the moment you ask me to join you after labor begins (usually still at your
home) and I don�t leave you until the baby is born, regardless of how long that
may be. Along the way, I can provide reassurance and perspective about the
process, and help with relaxation, massage, positioning and other techniques for
comfort.
I have been a Certified Doula (through DONA) since 2003. During
that time, I have had the opportunity to attend a variety of different kinds of
births: Hypnobirths �, water births, birth center births, VBAC (Vaginal Birth
After Cesarean) births, 1st time moms, 4th time moms, twins, medicated,
non-medicated, and a variety of other special situations. Because of this
variety, I feel very comfortable and confident about birth - but still always in
awe of how powerful and amazing the experience is every time.
Alongside my
doula practice, I also work as a Prenatal Massage Therapist, a Certified Lamaze
Childbirth Educator, and a Lactation Counselor. I have a well-rounded knowledge
of pregnancy, childbirth, and breastfeeding, and I love attending conferences
and workshops about birth. I proudly refer to myself as a Birth Nerd!
