Background/Experience that you think is beneficial to Doula work: I am a proud wife and mother of two, one son, and one step daughter that i raised with my husband. I am a selfless person that loves to help others and inspire them to be the best they can be. Becoming a doula has made my life fulfilling and rewarding. I have always loved all children and inspire to support new and existing parents on their journey building a family. I have also previously worked as a Notary Public for 4 years and at the County of Delaware as a clerk of courts for 9 years while raising my family. My passion is to support families in the transition of becoming new parents and existing parents in their journey of family building. My first job ever was babysitting a one year old and a five year old during the summer when I was 13 years old. From there I learned how much I valued being a role model and supporting the children I looked after. Eventually another relative of the family I cared for asked me to care for their two year old as well. One thing led to another and soon I was then referred by this family to friends and neighbors to care for children of all ages throughout my neighborhood and surrounding areas. I quickly learned how much I valued supporting families and children and that it came very natural to me. I developed a bond with every family I've worked with over the years, and it brings me tremendous joy to know that I took part in such an important amazing journey in the lives of the families I've supported over the years. I was introduced to postpartum infant care by my amazing sister inlaw who also shares the same interest in supporting families strive. I learned that I could have a career in something I truly loved to do!
