Long Distance Doula

Perhaps having a doula physically accompany you in your birth isn’t your thing , or you live in an under-served location, but you are educating yourself to make informed decisions and would like a little support along the way. You will have access to all of my resources, knowledge, and emotional support as you navigate this transitional time.

Think of me as a pregnancy pal or a birth bestie, someone to talk to, who will know the right questions to ask, share un-biased information, and will support your choices for your birth, your body, and your baby.

Perhaps you took a birth preparation class and you left with unanswered questions. Or the class did not dive into a specific concern of yours. Maybe this is your second or third babe and you just want a refresher without having to give up a whole weekend!

Every birthing person, birth and postpartum is unique. There are a lot of options in labor and parenting so connecting to and trusting your intuition and learning from that standpoint is important.

Having personalized prenatal preparation means the time is dedicated to your story, questions, concerns and goals. This space can be used to prepare for birth, talk about “what nobody tells you” about postpartum, discuss safe sleeping options, or process your choices for baby feeding.

  • One on one (+partner, if applicable) space to focus on your questions and goals
  • A deeper dive into the process of birth and the complex journey your baby will be navigating through
  • Detailed instruction for exercises and poses to practice in pregnancy and labor
  • Space to talk about and process what did and didn’t work for you in your previous labor(s)
