Attends hospital births? All Hospitals
I’m Liv, a trained birth doula with four years of experience supporting families through hospital births. During my training, I completed over 2,000 hours of medical and clinical work—observing and assisting in labor and delivery alongside hospital staff to deeply understand the clinical environment. I provide continuous emotional, physical, and informational support from early labor through delivery and into that first postpartum hour, offering techniques like massage, positioning guidance, breathing support, and advocacy so your voice is heard. Continuous doula care in hospitals has been shown to reduce cesarean rates, shorten labor, decrease reliance on pain medication, and improve birth satisfaction. I work closely with your birth partner—coaching and empowering them—and collaborate respectfully with hospital staff. From prenatal visits and being on call near your due date to postpartum follow-up, my approach is calm, flexible, and centered on your safety, autonomy, and unique goals—whether you're planning a VBAC, considering pain relief, or preparing for a cesarean-friendly experience. I’d love to connect and see if we’re a great match!

Attends birth center births? All Birth Centers
Ive accumulated many hours working directly alongside midwives, providing continuous support during labor and assisting with postpartum care. I offer hands-on comfort techniques, emotional support, and evidence-based information to help you make informed decisions. My role complements the midwifery team by focusing on your comfort and emotional well-being, ensuring you feel heard and supported throughout your birth experience. I work closely with your birth team and partner, fostering a collaborative environment that respects your birth plan and preferences. Whether you're planning an unmedicated birth, utilizing water labor, or considering other options, I'm here to support you in achieving your desired birth experience.

Attends home births? Any Home Birth
have a deep love and admiration for homebirths and the incredible women in our community who bravely and intentionally choose to welcome their babies in the comfort and safety of their own homes. There’s something profoundly empowering about the trust, strength, and connection that happens when birth unfolds naturally in a space filled with love and familiarity. While I also support and value birth center care, my heart especially shines for these families and the beautiful, holistic journeys they embark on. It’s an honor to walk alongside them, advocating for their choices and providing care that respects their unique path to motherhood.

Relevant volunteer or advocacy work

I have extensive medical training, including certifications in BLS (Basic Life Support for Medical Professionals) and NRP (Neonatal Resuscitation Program). I’m just six months away from completing my RN and IBCLC certifications. I hold a deep connection to true physiological birth, blending the most evidence-based research with compassionate care. My goal is to support not only you but your entire family—advocating for your needs, providing physical and emotional support, and holding space for the beautiful new experiences you and your partner will share together.

Fee Details

Im a huge believer that every client deserves accessible care. Regardless of budget, race, or accessibility. While my pricing reflects my years of medical knowledge of expertise, i'm committed to providing care to everyone.
