What better way to celebrate 15 years of being a doula than with a whole room full of wonderful birthworkers? Thanks to our hard working Calgary Doula Association board for a wonderful year end party! It was just a lucky coincidence that it fell on my anniversary ❤️
Here’s just a handful of some of my colleagues I snapped a photo with!
