A doula provides emotional, physical, and informational support during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I offer comfort measures, guidance, reassurance, newborn support, feeding help, and nourishment care as you adjust to life with a new baby.

Midwives and doctors provide medical care and make clinical decisions. A doula does not replace them - we complement their work. I don’t perform exams, monitor vitals, or give medical advice. Instead, I support you emotionally and physically, help you understand your options, and ensure your preferences are heard and respected. I am hired by you. I don't work for the hospital, or the midwifery clinic. Think of me as your continuous, steady support person.

You can reach out anytime — during pregnancy, before baby arrives, or once you’re already postpartum. Some families book ahead to plan for support, while others reach out after birth when they realize they need more rest, meals, reassurance, or hands-on help.

Absolutely. Partners deserve support too. I help them feel confident, informed, and involved by offering guidance, reassurance, and practical ways they can support you and the baby. My goal is to strengthen your whole support system.

I support families within Chatham-Kent and surrounding areas. If you’re outside this region, reach out. I may still be able to accommodate based on availability, or recommend someone in your area if I'm unable to make it work.
