Birth + Postpartum Support
Doula support is, by nature, flexible, adaptable, and deeply holistic. Doulas serve as the steady “glue” that brings together all the layers of support you and your family need during this profoundly personal, unique, and deeply human experience.
An example of the type of support I provide:
Engaging Partners & Your Chosen Support Team
My role is to support the entire family unit. While the birthing person remains at the center of my care, doula support naturally extends to partners and loved ones, ensuring everyone feels informed, grounded, and included.
​
Group Chat Connection
Staying connected is essential. The more I learn about you, the more effectively I can guide you through the physical and emotional milestones of your journey. And the more you get to know me, the more comfortable you'll feel leaning on my support. Our group chat is designed to be active and open—a space for you and your chosen Team/Partner to ask questions, voice concerns, celebrate, and share as we move through this experience together.
​
Education & Home Visits
Preparing you with knowledge is one of my greatest joys. I strive to give you clear, evidence-based information so you can make truly Informed Decisions and shape the birth experience that feels right for you. You will be automatically enrolled in my Prenatal Education class with Childbirth Kingston, complemented by regular home visits where we tailor concepts to your needs and explore the details that matter most to your family.

Access to Alternative Support Practitioners
As your doula, I bring with me a trusted network of holistic perinatal professionals. These practitioners—such as RMTs, chiropractors, pelvic floor physiotherapists, and others—understand the interconnected physical, emotional, and mental needs of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Their care can support comfort, optimal baby positioning, sleep, latch and feeding, and overall well-being. Unless you prefer otherwise, I will coordinate these sessions for you throughout pregnancy and postpartum, ensuring you receive seamless, comprehensive support.
What support is like during...
During pregnancy, my care is centered on helping you feel calm, well-rested, and deeply connected to what’s happening in your own body. I’m here to make sure you understand the Physiological process of birth and feel supported in every decision. I also focus on helping you stay grounded in a healthy mental and emotional space as you prepare to welcome your baby.
Pregnancy
Birth
During birth, my support is continuous—no matter the place you choose or the provider you work with. From the moment you say you want me by your side until a few hours after your baby arrives, you will never be without support. I am there to care for you and your loved ones through every wave and transition, tending to your physical comfort, emotional steadiness, and mental well-being throughout the entire experience.
Postpartum
Postpartum care begins with deeply attentive, in-person support in the early days and continues with regular visits in the months that follow. My focus is on helping you rest, recover, and find your rhythm as a new family. This includes guidance around self-care and healing, infant feeding, newborn care, emotional well-being, and setting healthy boundaries. Through every stage, I’m there to ensure you feel supported, nurtured, and never alone as you find your footing in this new chapter.
