The Doula House is two
women committed to assisting women with the magical process that is childbirth.
Whether you are planning a natural home birth, or an assisted hospital birth;
having a doula is an amazing asset for mother and father. We work together
to create a common dream, whether you are working with one or both of us.
The added benefit
to the team is that you will all ready have a chance to get to know your backup
doula. It is important to have a backup doula, should something arise and your
doula is unable to make it to the birth. We provide knowledge at your fingertips
and a friend to call on if you just need someone to talk to.
Our comprehensive prenatal visits cover
what your ideal birth goal is, and how best to achieve it. We work together to get you mentally, emotionally, and physically
ready for this experience. We will also help you to create a birth "preference" plan. By knowing what you want,
and expressing it on paper, your complete birth team (partner, doula, and doctor or midwife) will know how to best fulfill
your desires and keep you as comfortable as possible.

I am a doula who believes that anything we put our thoughts to, we can create.
I believe in the power of each individual, and strive to achieve each mother's goals. Birth is a beautiful experience that
each women creates. Her dreams and desires for the birth, are as sacred as anything. I enjoy working with women, and the strength
that is created when women help women. There is a magic and a support system that is built between mother and doula. I am
a certified Hypno-doula, Hypnosis Certified Hypnobabies Instructor. (I completely advocate the power of meditation or hypnosis
during birth.)
I am many things, a mother, a sister,
a friend, a teacher, and a doula. I am here to support women as they make the journey through birth.

Birth to me is a wonderful fascinating time full of hopes and dreams and expectations of all kinds. In our society
many have been raised to fear birth without realizing that it is a normal natural process made to bring joy and fulfillment
to a woman. Connecting with the process of a healthy happy pregnancy and birth can be as simple as connecting with your own
divine nature and just tuning in to see where it leads you. In my connection to the birthing process, I have given birth to
nine babies of my own and have attended numerous births of many different kinds. I have skills in meditation, theta
healing, energy work, massage, pre and post birth counseling to release blocks and fears associated with birth, and intuitive
birth coaching. I am willing to help a woman with whom ever she chooses to give birth anywhere at any time. My focus is the
ability to help you to create the birth you desire along with giving you my skills and knowledge to make wise informed decisions.
The blessings of birth can extend for a lifetime and bring joy to all those connected. My center and focus is to make this
be so.
