Birth Doula Care
Birth is sacred and transformative. I am passionate about birth and believe in women’s innate ability, strength and power to give birth.

Studies indicate that home is the safest, most gentle place for a healthy woman to birth her baby. For some healthy women a birth center is a great alternative to homebirth.

As your doula, taking care of your needs is my only focus and responsibility.

I received my doula training at the Seattle Midwifery School in 2005 with Penny Simkin, author of The Birth Partner. 

A birth doula…

• Recognizes birth as a key life experience that the mother will remember all her life.
• Nurtures the woman's memory of her birth experience.
• Stays by the side of the laboring woman throughout her entire labor.
• Understands the physiology of birth and the emotional needs of the woman in labor.
• Assists a woman and her partner in preparing for and carrying out her plans for the birth.
• Provides continuous emotional support, non-medical comfort measures, an objective viewpoint, and assistance to the mother in getting the information she needs to make good decisions.
• Facilitates communication between the laboring woman, her partner, and the other care providers.
