Meet Your ProDoula
Background/Experience that you think is beneficial to Doula work: Even though I have no children of my own, I have 4 younger siblings who have shaped me into the women I am today. I was lucky enough to be 16, 18 & 20 years old when my youngest siblings were born. This meant I was old enough to truly understand the process and actually got to be a part of their births! Besides being there from the first day my siblings were born, I also nannied and taught dance lessons during my high school and college days. In May of 2019 I graduated college with a bachelors degree in Family Studies. I absolutely loved my major, so much that I became the president of our majors club - CFR (Council on Family Relations). I would say after all of my personal experience and training, I am well prepared for being a Doula and Infant Feeding Specialist.
What led you to become a Doula?: My sweet baby siblings are what led be to becoming interested in birth work. As I supported and calmed the nerves of my stepmom during labor, I quickly felt that this was my calling. After the laboring process came the birth, I was so taken back by how amazing human bodies are. I hoped to one day encourage all birthing individuals to know what their bodies are capable of and show them support every step of the way. It's all coming full circle, and I can't wait to get out there and get started!
What are some positive comments made about you by other people?:
My stepmom, Julia, has always told me I am “cool as a cucumber” in stressful/tough situations. I am a problem solver and a people pleaser! I have been told by many friends and family I can make anyone feel calm, at ease, and judgment free. I welcome and understand all ideas and feelings, and take everything one step at a time.
