I am a seasoned registered nurse with over 35 years of experience. My first love in nursing was labor /delivery /postpartum and women’s specialties. Now as a birth doula, I am looking forward to using my skills to provide in-person support in the form of comfort measures, relaxation techniques and breathing patterns to enhance the birthing experience for families.

As a doula I believe that all birthing families deserve to feel supported, informed and confident in making decisions during their birthing time. I enjoy learning about my client's birthing visions, teaching comfort measures to partners, suggesting labor positions, and different tips/tricks through pregnancy and your birthing journey. I take pride in teaching my clients how to advocate for themselves with their care providers in order to establish trust and healthy communication. ​

It is my goal as your doula to empower you with knowledge and a sense that you are supported in your goals and that you are being seen and heard and understood. I use hands-on techniques and evidence-based information and strive to bring a sense of focus, assuredness and peace to the labor room.

As a doula, I strive to empower my clients to advocate for the births that THEY want! This is their story, and they are the authors. I have supported over 75 births in a variety of settings and situations, including multiples (twins and up), VBACs, and belly births. In the birth space, I like to use the BRAIN acronym (benefits, risks, alternatives, intuition, nothing) to help clients navigate through decision making in the birth space. This brings a sense of calmness and allows clients to have meaningful discussions concerning their care with the medical staff.

I am a well-versed doula with experience in pregnancy, labor and delivery. I have experience providing emotional, educational and physical support, while bringing a calm presence, encouragement, and a safe environment for mom, baby and family.

My love for the birth experience began with my own infertility journey and now that love extends to each client I have the chance to work with. My experience with the challenges that are unique to pregnancy and birth has helped me to discover my calling, helping mothers and families transition into their new lives together. I seamlessly move between quiet, calm and focused to humor and joy.

The miracle of birth is a joyful and incredible journey, and I am honored to serve as a multilingual doula of color in Colorado. I work with you, your care team, and any support partner(s) you have to provide guidance and empowerment. My goal as a doula is that you feel supported and safe in your labor and birth environment, so you can listen to your body in a judgement-free zone and trust your instincts. 

As your birth doula, I trust you and your innate wisdom to listen to your body, your heart and your own inner wisdom as you work toward meeting your baby. In birth, I provide non-judgmental birth support and show up without personal agenda or ego to your birth. I listen to your hopes and desires and support your choices and am there to help you to decide what is best for you and your family.

Birth is a blessed event. As a doula, I strive to support birthing parents to have a positive birth experience that encompasses the physical, emotional, and informational aspects of this sacred time so they can feel empowered to make decisions that best fit them and their specific situation. I integrate my support role with the rest of the care team, maintaining a high standard of professionalism and mutual respect to promote a positive birth environment.

My goal is to empower you during your birth to give you a great start into parenthood. Whatever your birth plan looks like, I am here to support you through your birthing process. This is your birth and your story - no one else's.

As a birth doula, it doesn’t matter to me how you want to have your baby — I support all births (planned cesarean, induction, medicated, unmedicated and everything in between)! I care about making sure you and your partner or family have all the tools possible to make informed decisions about how your baby is born. Evidence-based information is a passion of mine and I have found throughout the years that using evidence-based science helps eliminate any personal or unconscious biases.

I’m delighted to provide back-up doula service for the 9th Avenue Doula Team. I was fully active as a Rose Doula for 20 years while I also served the non profit community in various leadership positions. Now I support whoever is in need of brief fill-in or perhaps full labor support.

I am committed to connecting with my clients to form an intimate and trusting relationship. I want to encourage an empowering birth for you and your family!  My goal is to cherish your inner child, along with the new child being born. Together, we can create a positive experience, one that you will love talking about for decades!

It is my distinct privilege to witness your strengths, support your needs, and experience the love that surrounds these special birth moments. Mindfulness, empathy, and empowerment are the core values I bring to the birth space, guiding you as a trauma-informed, judgement-free, grounding presence. I love the spontaneity, light, and radiating energy that comes from birth and I hope to share this welcoming space with you.

As a doula, my goal is to help families find their strength, and to support them during this beautiful phase of life. I started my journey by casually supporting friends and family members who were welcoming a new baby and came to me for advice. I realized not only how much my support meant to them, but how much it meant to me.
