This summer has been all about family.
I’ve been soaking up the lazy days, late night movies and getting some well-deserved rest.

But here’s the thing…babies come all year round and all the fall/winter babies will be arriving soon!

I am opening up a few spaces for Fall/Winter birth clients, and my Empowered Birth series for Sept/Nov and Dec is now enrolling. 💛 book your spot before they fill.

Message me to chat Birth Support or to grab your class seat.

✨ What clients are saying about my prenatal classes…

“I feel informed and comforted,”
“I feel so much better equipped and eager to review my resources,”
“I feel confident going into birth,”
“My partner finally feels more prepared!”

☀️ Summer prenatal classes are open for registration-if you’re pregnant and want to feel more prepared, more grounded and supported, we would love to see you class!

💛 And, if you are meeting me in class as an instructor and think, “I wish she could be our doula…”-don’t hesitate to chat with me about my availability. I may have space for you!

➡️ message me with questions or follow the link in my bio to reserve you space in an upcoming series.

If you know, you know 🍞🧀

That first postpartum snack in the hospital just hits different.
Simple, a little bleh, but somehow the most delicious toast you have ever tasted.

It’s a KGH L&D classic. A quiet little moment of nourishment after all the intensity.

✨ book a birth support consult ✨

In a time when consistent care from one care provider can be hard to come by, having a doula can help you feel more connected and grounded throughout your pregnancy and in your birthing time.

Let’s meet and talk about how I can support you through your pregnancy, birth and postpartum. 💛

📆 book a consultation today for in person doula care or my virtual doula package.

👩🏻 an awkward selfie for ya

Here I am teaching my last condensed prenatal series for the season. Next classes won’t be available until the fall term.

So, if you would like to learn about all things birth, postpartum and check out the labour and delivery ward at KGH, you can still sign up for my extended series.

Summer dates are posted on my website.
We still have space for class starting Monday May 5 too!!

See you all in class.

🌿 Birth is Sacred🌿

For Indigenous families, birth has always been a sacred ceremony. Colonization disrupted these traditions.
Indigenous families continue to face staggering health disparities and racism in medical settings.

Indigenous Doulas who support Indigenous birthing families are part of the solution.
We offer culturally safe care and advocate for our rights in the medical system.

Birth is resistance. Birth is reclamation. Birth is healing.

If you have any questions about how to access the grant in BC, or how to find an Indigenous Doula in your area, comment or send me a DM.

Layering on non medical comfort techniques is an excellent way to manage uncomfortable sensations that you may feel during the intensity of labour.
