Worked with children and their families through the CASA organization for nine years. 3 wonderful children and 5 beautiful grandchildren.
What led you to become a Doula?: Having worked with other families and their children as a nurse as well as having my own children and grandchildren, I knew that I wanted to continue that trend.
