As a pre-natal and birth doula, I guide women on their preparation for labor and accompany them in labor to help ensure a safe and satisfying birth experience. I have completed training approved by DONA International and I am also a highly accredited and experienced registered Yoga teacher (ERYT500/ KRI) with extensive prenatal yoga training on the following modalities: Sivananda Yoga (Traditional
Yoga); Restorative Yoga (relaxing, stretching, and healing with the use of props); Power and Vinyasa (strengthening, exercising and stabilizing), and Kundalini Yoga (meditative, inspiring, empowering, and re-programing of new thought patterns and habits). I am also a Reiki Master and guided meditation teacher with over ten years of practice and experience. My prenatal and childbirth Doula services are unique and personalized to suit your own needs as a mother and support you in having a magical birth and welcoming a blissful baby into this world. By offering you more than just conventional Doula services, but also by incorporating my extensive knowledge as a Yoga and Pre-Natal Yoga teacher I deeply aspire to help you achieve a healthy pregnancy, empower, and prepare you for a beautiful, blissful, conscious and unforgettable birth. My ultimate goal is to respect your own personal needs; draw on my professional training, knowledge and experience to provide emotional support, physical comfort and, as needed communication with the staff to make sure that you have the information you need to make informed decisions as they arise in labor. I can provide reassurance and perspective to you and your partner, make suggestions for labor progress, and help with relaxation, soothing touch, positioning and other techniques for comfort. I am independent and self-employed. As your doula, I am working for you, not as a caregiver or hospital.
