I love being a doula, getting to be a part of such a special time in a woman's life, getting to see the birth of a family. I recognize that each birth is unique, and is a key life experience that every mother will remember forever.
I believe woman should be supported and encouraged to listen to her body during labor and birth. She should trust that her body knows how to birth her baby. Every woman should be given the help and support to give birth in a way that will meet her desires and give her the most satisfying experience possible.
I was blessed to grow up in a home where birth was considered a natural process, and I was allowed to be present at 5 of my siblings home births. Watching the Midwives care for my mother, gently guiding her through her birth changed me forever.
Becoming a doula and getting to be a part of birth is so exciting. I want to continue learning and growing so I will have more to offer my clients.
I also enjoy learning about natural healing through herbs and natural food, quilting, exercise, reading(especially birth stories) and gardening.
