Empowering Births: Your Compassionate Partner in Perinatal Journey

About me

About meA labor doula is a birth professional who serves women (and their families) physically,
emotionally and informationally during the perinatal time.
I am a certified labor doula with CAPPA : Childbirth and Postpartum Professional
Association.
I studied Therapeutic Massage for one year.
Before birth, I support women and their husbands/partners with prenatal visits
to educate and discover what they envision for the birth.
During the birth, positioning, nurturing touch (acupressure), continuous support
is offered.
Post- partum, I help with the first nursing and later, bring a hot meal.
I have testimonials on my Facebook page: Gentle Strength
Doula Service.
My goals are to educate, be positive, loving and non- judgmental in relating
to others. Research shows that continuous support from a person who is not a
part of the expecting mother’s social network, is experienced in labor support,
and has training provides the most benefits.
Benefits of Doulas:
Reduces the incidence of C-Sections
Reduces epidural and analgesic requests
Reduces postpartum mood disorders
More likely to have shorter labors
I have had 4 children: all natural births. I use my passion for birth
to make a big splash as a doula!
