Empowering Your Path to Parenthood
Postpartum Support
My belief is that every person entering parenthood deserves to be surrounded in love, community and compassion. The transition to motherhood (or parenthood) is the single greatest transition across the lifespan, and no one should walk this journey alone.
As a Postpartum Doula, my goal is to support you in the early stages of parenthood where you can feel healthy, empowered and confident in caring for yourself, and your baby.
