I am a DONA-certified birth doula and a DONA-trained postpartum doula, serving families in the greater Sacramento, CA area. As a mother of five, who birthed four and adopted one, I am passionate about family and parenthood. My wish for every birthing person is that they feel supported in having a calm, confident, fearless birth.

When I was birthing my children, I experienced nearly every single medical intervention, not fully understanding that I had options. Today I am more fully aware of the scope of what birth can look like, and I’m in a position to offer that knowledge and support to others. Working in labor and delivery for a few years gave me an understanding of the language within the medical birthing community, and being a doula has given me the ability to help birthing families navigate their choices.
