Meet Your ProDoula

Background/Experience that you think is beneficial to Doula work: I have been in childcare and education for twenty years. I am also a mother of two boys and have five years experience caring for foster children ranging from infant to teenager.

What led you to become a Doula?: During my pregnancy with my first son, I desperately wanted a doula but none were available where we lived at that time. Afterwards, I struggled with breastfeeding and inadequate support. It was an awfully lonely feeling, but we made it through. When I was pregnant with my second son, I was so fortunate to have a doula. It changed my experience and confidence so dramatically, and having the support postpartum was a game changer. I had been passionate about birthwork since finding out I was pregnant, but experiencing the highs and lows of it really ignited a drive to help other families in postpartum particularly.

What are some positive comments made about you by other people?:

“I cannot recommend Jess highly enough as a postpartum doula! From the moment she stepped into our home, she brought an air of calm and confidence that was exactly what I needed as a mom with now, 3 kids. Jess’s incredible knowledge, combined with her loving and caring nature, made her an invaluable support during those challenging first weeks.

Jess went above and beyond in everything she did, whether it was helping with the baby, offering breastfeeding advice, or just lending an ear when I needed someone to talk to. She always seemed to know exactly what was needed before I even had to ask. Her gentle guidance helped me gain confidence in my own parenting skills, and her presence was a constant reassurance.

Her support has been a gift to our family, and I feel so fortunate to have had her by my side during such an important time in our lives. Jess isn’t just a doula; she’s a true ally to moms. Anyone would be lucky to have Jess as part of their postpartum journey. Thank you, Jess, for everything!” -Rachel M.

“Jessica is the kindest, most loyal, and supportive woman I know. She is a person of integrity and great character and I trust her to care for me and my family. When I was struggling with depression and anxiety Jessica helped counsel me and took loving care of my child so that I could sleep in peace. She is calm and reassuring to her clients, even in times of tremendous stress. She’s always willing to lend a hand when needed and she goes above and beyond to provide support to those in need. As a nurse-midwife, Jessica will always be my number one recommendation for my clients seeking a compassionate and knowledgeable postpartum doula.” -Mallorie Hall, Nurse-Midwife
