looking for something different?
As stated in the DONA Scope of Practice and Code of Ethics, I believe in "a doula for every person who wants one." If your needs are different, I can work with you to make that happen.
my support during COVID-19
Some hospitals are currently limiting the number of support people allowed in the room with the birthing person due to COVID-19. If your birthing location has some of these limitations, I am happy to provide labor support virtually via video and/or phone. A huge part of our work together occurs during our prenatal visits and discussing what to expect during birth, what decisions you might have to make, and what your options might look like. For more information about my support during COVID-19, please contact me.
