Grounded Doula Services

Let’s talk about Prenatal doula visits 🏡

I’m a big fan of these visits. I meet 1-2 times with my birth clients in the 3rd trimester, depending on their preference.

These sessions are held in your home, are super relaxed, and are all about connecting, educating, and supporting you best.

It’s a chance for us to get to know each other better, build trust, plan the best ways to support you, answer your questions, practice positions, comfort measures, and more.

This is where we can REALLY dive deeper into your questions, concerns, strengths, challenges - the nitty gritty of birth!

1. CONNECTION
- get to know each other, build trust & comfort

2. EDUCATION
- discuss stages of labour, coping tools, options

3. GOALS
- your preferences, needs, advocacy, plans

Whether it’s your first birth, or your fifth - there’s something for everyone.

Let’s build your dream birth today!

Looking for unmedicated pain relief options in labour? I got you! 😎

There are TONS of unmedicated tools you can use in your home and hospital, before or in addition to trying the
medicated ones.

(I’ll do a future post on medicated options too 😎)

I always recommend that clients learn about these options, as they’re simple, but effective - AND because sometimes medicated options don’t work or aren’t available!

Best to not rely on only one option, but have a few handy!

Prenatally, I cover a lot of ground with my clients, including birth wishes and ways that help them feel calm during anxious or hard moments.

>> then we bring these tools into the labour space!

Here are a few big ones:

💦 WATER (shower or bath)
💃🏻 MOVEMENT
🕯️ LOW LIGHTS
😮‍💨 BREATHWORK
🧘 MINDSET

Words are powerful.

Sometimes, my clients just want me to listen, so they can vent and be heard. Other times, some advice with compassion is most appreciated.

It’s a balance but an honour to be a witness and invited guest into these moments.

As we wrap up 2025...

I’m taking some time to gather, celebrate and nest it up with my loved ones and kitties.

I’m so grateful for:
– my incredible clients that invited me into their lives this year

– my doula & community pals that refer people my way, and that I can laugh, learn & debrief with

– my loved ones that I can lean on & that take care of me during the ups & downs of navigating this world as a doula/small biz owner + big feeling human

⭐ I’ll be off from: December 22nd-December 28th ⭐

Here’s to embracing more slowness and wishing you all comfort & joy this holiday season + 2026.

Keri 💚❄️

✨ NEW BLOG POST! ✨

“10 Ways to Navigate the Holidays as a New Parent”

Did you recently welcome a little one? Congrats!
The holiday season may look a little different for you this year - and that’s ok!

I dive into taking care of your needs, boundaries, expectations, and capacities as your family grows around the holidays.

Because who couldn’t use some help with their boundary game this time of year? ❄️🎄

“Fa la la la laa, keep your judgements to yourself!” 🎶

The festive season can be jolly, but it can also bring something NOT on your wish list: unsolicited “advice”!

Whether you’re pregnant, or you just welcomed a baby, here’s some handy responses as my gift to you:

🎁 “I get that worked for you, but we’re excited about the birth plan we have.”

🎁 “We’re choosing to not have visitors in the first 6 weeks. Thanks for understanding.”

🎁 “Every family is different. What works for one doesn’t work for another, and that’s ok.”

🎁 “We won’t be doing that.”

🎁 “I think your intentions are good, but that isn’t helpful.”

🎁 “I’m choosing to only focus on positive birth stories during my pregnancy. Thanks for being mindful of this.”

🎁 “I’m not looking for input on this. Right now I could just use [insert what you’re needing].”

🎁 If all else fails: know your limits and walk away - from the conversation, or if needed, the gathering.

Only you can decide what’s right for your birth and your parenting journey. You don’t owe anyone an explanation.
Period.

Honour your choices and boundaries - and leave the lumps of coal for the people on the naughty list. 🎅

Client Love 💚

Sharing some kind words from an amazing birth client (and friend, plus upcoming repeat client!)

Being invited to share this chapter with my friend and powerhouse of a mother, was really incredible.

✨Extra magic: having a mini doula buddy present for their siblings’ birth was so beautiful and sweet to witness. 🥰
