Welcome to Original Birth

Pregnancy is an amazing time in a woman's life when she becomes part of the miracle of birth. It can also be overwhelming and it helps to have someone with experience to help guide you along the way.

As a doula, I have the privilege to be invited by families to share in this intimate time so that they can have a birth experience that they will remember forever. I look forward to getting to know you and learning how I can help make your pregnancy and birth a truly memorable experience.

As your doula, I can help you explore your hopes and fears surrounding your upcoming birth so that you are able to embrace the experience with confidence and joy. We will discuss how your body is able to accomplish such a seemingly impossible task and yet leave you feeling more capable than you've ever felt before.

"Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is about making mothers ~ strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength."
