Training Documentation

credential


Relevant volunteer or advocacy work

I started out as a nanny and worked my way through to become a Newborn Care Specialist, CLC, Birth and Postpartum Doula. Working with each individual family to meet their needs and give them all the tools to make empowered choices for themselves. I absolutely love what I do and I am so grateful for all the families I worked and work with currently. I consider myself family focused and one who knows when to be hands off and hands on. I have experience with multiples, singletons, belly births, VBACS and transfers. Any family who welcomes me as their doula is a great honor
