ABOUT ME

I am a Full Spectrum Doula, Childbirth Educator, and Certified Lactation/Feeding Counselor, supporting folks through all aspects of reproductive life since 2019. I am also a Spanish-English Medical Interpreter and 15-year veteran Childcare Professional. My background is in child development and I bring my wealth of clinical knowledge, skills, and experience to all of my services. I specialize in reproductive advocacy, justice, and equity in access to quality health care. More importantly, I carry with me a deep compassion for and belief in every person’s right to a positive and dignified birth experience of their choosing and equitable, respectful treatment in medical settings.

 

I’m here to provide unbiased information and emotional support that benefits birthing people and their families during pregnancy, childbirth and postpartum. As a doula, my job is to guide and assist you in making educated choices about your pregnancy, and remind you that you can trust in the strength of your own body during this time.

 

When I'm not caring for others in my professional life, I'm cultivating my plant babies and loving up my tabby cat fur baby, Leo. What can I say? Caring is my nature!

I CHERISH

The unique honor and privilege of working with families as they walk this path growing their families or navigate the healthcare system. My services will always be provided in a way that is person-first and relationship-based.

I SUPPORT

All birth choices and outcomes.
