As a doula, I’m always looking for spaces that help families feel calm, supported, and excited for what’s ahead— and delivers every time. 💛🤰

From 3D/4D imaging, to early gender determination (SneakPeek at 6 weeks or ultrasound at 16 weeks!), it’s such a beautiful way to connect with your baby. 👶

Plus… gender-reveal goodies, adorable outfits, and those precious heartbeat animals. My heart can’t handle it. 😍💓
 So grateful for this place and the memories it helps create.

I’m obessed with 👶!!

I’ve been coming to them since my first pregnancy in 2023, and every visit is truly such an amazing experience. If you’re expecting, you have to check them out! ‼️💓

Here’s what I love most about Kicks & Giggles: • They offer ultrasounds at all gestations 🤍
• They are located conveniently in Provo  • 16-week early gender confirmation 👶 • Spacious and cozy facility, perfect for bringing family + friends 🏠 • The sweetest staff + the most magical experience every time ✨

So grateful to be partnering with them again for this pregnancy! 💕

How would you describe contractions?? 💬👶📈

If you’ve given birth before you understand the intensity, but honestly the exact feelings almost disappear- and pretty soon after birth too!

The instant baby is born you feel immense love (oxytocin and endorphins) that overcomes the immediate intensity of labor. Our bodies and minds are AMAZING!! 🤩

Here are some ways I’ve heard contractions described:
- Intense period cramps
- Diarrhea cramps
- Bad back ache
- Wave of pain from lower back to va**na
Even with these descriptions, everyone experiences pain sensations differently! The best thing to do WHILE pregnant, is figure out what brings you comfort during pain. Maybe you already have painful periods or you have migraines, does a heating pad help? Do you take a bath? Those things that comfort you when you are not feeling well will probably comfort you when you are in labor. It’s okay and normal to have some anxiety about the intensity, practice mindfulness exercises like affirmations and meditation.

Our bodies were MADE FOR THIS. The intensity cannot be more powerful than you because it IS YOU! 🌟

This is what my birth support looks like 💞— read below to learn more!!👇

These moments are raw, real, and powerful — and this is the heart of what I do. Here, I’m offering counter-pressure, emotional support, and hands-on care while my client labors.

As your doula, I provide:
 • Physical support during labor — like massage 💆‍♀️, counter-pressure, and position reminders
 • Emotional support to help you feel calm, safe, and heard 🫂
 • Partner guidance so they can feel confident and connected
 • Advocacy to help you communicate your needs with your birth team 🗣️
 • Prenatal sessions before your due date for birth preparation
 • On-call availability starting at 37 weeks until your baby arrives 📆
 • I join you when labor begins and stay through birth
 • I remain with you for 1hr (and usually more) after birth to support skin-to-skin, bonding, and initial breastfeeding 👶 
📩 DM me to book a free consultation or ask any questions. I’d love to connect and support you on your journey. 🤍
