My postpartum doula journey began with my own postpartum experience. I felt strong, brave, and in awe of my body while also overwhelmed, exhausted, and confused by my feelings and what felt like millions of monumental decisions. Through the postpartum period I found courage and confidence I never had before, I learned to trust myself and the choices I was making for myself and my family. But none of this was possible without the support of others, encouraging me, guiding me, and ultimately letting me know that I do know what’s best for my baby.
As your postpartum doula, I aim to provide physical and emotional support through what is undoubtedly one of the most profoundly transformational and magical periods of your life. I hope to transmit a sense of confidence to my clients that will allow them to tune in to their own intuition and trust their instincts.
After months of monitoring and constant check ups, the postpartum period comes with very little guidance and support. A postpartum doula can provide the care, resources, information, gentle encouragement that each day will get better and easier, and a safe place to land where there’s no judgement.
In my free time, I can be found hanging out with my toddler, family, and friends, cooking, doing yoga, reading, or walking my senior dog.
