I live with my husband and four children in the Willamette Valley. Together we learn, grow and laugh as a family. For 12 years I have run my own in-home daycare along with homeschooling my four children. I have been serving , educating and supporting families since my children were young. As a MOPS mom and a local board member for LIGHT, I loved being in contact with moms and helping them explore options and ideas as they navigated through the early years of childhood. In 2016, I was finally able to pursue training with a DONA certified trainer as a Birth Doula. Helping parents welcome their newborn into the world is a joy and a privilege.
As your Doula, I bring peace and strength to your birth. Whatever your birth choices may be: home, center or hospital; natural or pain relief with medication; cesearean, VBAC, or vaginal; first-time or experienced mother; single moms, teen moms, or family centered birth with siblings. I am here to offer support, encouragement, and evidence-based education. I am honored to participate in one of life's greatest moments wtih you.
