Meet Your ProDoula

Background/Experience that you think is beneficial to Doula work: I believe that birth is an instinctual and sacred experience. My role is to help you achieve that experience through guidance and support. As your doula, I will be your advocate, a non-judgmental space, a source of evidence-based information and a provider of comfort during your pregnancy, labor, postpartum and beyond. I strongly believe that every person deserves dignity in birth. I support single parents, families of color, and LGBTQ+ families.

What led you to become a Doula?: I first learned about doulas in my early twenties. I felt a strong desire to become a birth worker but I did not feel I had the "right experience" at the time. Life got in the way, as life often does, and I pushed that dream aside to explore other opportunities. In 2022, my partner and I moved to the Eastern Sierra to follow our love for backpacking, rock climbing, and enjoying the outdoors. While trying to have a child of our own, I became aware of how few community-based birth care options were available in the region. For over a decade, I have felt a calling to become a doula, however, it wasn't until seeing the need in my community that gave me the courage to pursue birth work. I'm often asked why I decided to become a doula. My answer? I feel on a cellular level that this is what I should have been doing all along.
