You desire a natural, physiological, undistrubed birth, and a woman to walk alongside you in the process.

What I bring to the table

  • Serving as a birthkeeper/doula is a very intimate relationship, and I believe that a large part of prep work for birth is growing in relationship with you and your husband, so we can all feel comfortable + safe in each other’s presence. I love to let the prenatal visits spill over into getting coffee, sharing a meal, or working out together

  • Keeping the sacred space of birth with my presence, I bring my experience in witnessing natural, physiological birth. I bring confidence & peace to your birth space, knowing this is possible for you

  • Comprehensive education on the hormonal & chemical events that set birth up to be physiological

  • Nutritional, herbal, supplemental, and movement support for a comfortable pregnancy, using the Way of the Hearthmother

  • Encourage Dads to take their rightful place as protector over the birth space, giving them practical tools & ways to help the mother during labor

  • As my skills continue to grow and evolve, I am able to offer comfort measures, suggested position changes, etc. during labor & make sure you are well hydrated

  • Encourage you to connect to your baby + experience of motherhood

  • Listen as to you process the transformational experience of birth

  • Guided emotional processing both before and after birth

  • I do not bring fear into the birth space, but a confidence in the both God’s design for the woman’s body + birth, and trust in His plan to unfold

  • Helping you recognize your sphere of control vs. what is not in your control

  • When birth does not go as planned, both 100% informed and spirit-filled guidance as you decide how to proceed

  • Mentorship in the Way of the Hearthmother as put forth by Lauren Hall, here

A cup of coffee or tea is also on the table, and there is a lamp and framed artwork on the wall behind them.

I'm in!

You desire a natural, physiological birth, and a woman to be alongside you in this process 

You desire someone alongside you to process your beliefs and experiences about pregnancy + childbirth

You desire to do all in your control to ensure a healthy pregnancy + physiological birth (diet, lifestyle, stress reduction, etc.)

You trust, or desire to trust, God’s plan for your birth over your own plan

You are open to receiving suggestion for whole-istic wellness and care, and taking responsibility for your own health and prenatal care

You believe that birth is a more wholistic event, but you are not 100% sure how to get there

You are open to both deep work/introspection and not holding onto emotions/beliefs/trauma that don’t serve you

You want someone to accompany you, actively listen and hold space

You want an unassisted birth, yet you want another woman (who is comfortable with a normal, physiological birth), to sit beside you, note-take (or not), sing or record or be silent, bring snacks, encourage or assist your husband

You are having a homebirth with a midwife, yet you would like another support person there to notice and suggest comfort measures, position changes, tension releases, etc. 

You want a natural, physiological birth in the hospital

It is your first baby and you desire extra encouragement + reassurance in the birthing process

Should I set up a consult?

Q & A

  • I am willing to have a doula-type role at an unassisted birth (see above). It is especially important that we go through a extensive interview process to determine if we are a good fit, and to be crystal-clear about what roles & responsibilities each party with take. For example, my role in the case of an emergency would be to act as an encourager, helping you to process the situation by reminding you of the pre-planned course of action. Please fill out the inquiry form on my website or send me an email if you would like to chat about this!

  • I currently support women who desire natural hospital births without intervention and are willing to advocate for themselves (with their husband!) We will create a birth plan together. I do prefer to support women in the home, as I believe it creates a setting for birth to unfold most peacefully.

  • I believe that every woman should have a support system, and if she desires, a doula to work with. Please reach out to share about your particular need, and we can discuss to see if it is possible for me to work with you. Location relative to me also affects the cost.

    I also offer low-cost or free of charge services to moms in crisis pregnancy situations, so please let me know and I can work with the organization helping you.

  • Nope! If desired, I am willing & able to bring in aspects of spirituality for Christian & Catholic Christian women.
