About me

My Philosophy

Each birth is unique and beautiful. I believe that no mother should have to labor/birth unsupported. Mothers deserve the most support possible when bringing a new life into the world. It takes more than one person to support a laboring mother.

There is POWER through love and support and that power has been proven to increase the success rate of labor. It is the time that mothers take back their birth, advocate for themselves and make good decisions based on their individual needs.

I am able to support you in your ability to make intelligent decisions which will be best for your family. I cannot make decisions for you, however, I am able to walk with you through your thought process to make an educated decision.

My vision for a new mother is to be able to provide care for her child and not worry about the world around her for some time after labor. I have always been a helpful person who wants to serve people around me.

My Story

I am a married mother of a 4-year-old. I was born in North Carolina, now residing outside of Philadelphia, PA.

I have a background in Culinary Arts, BA in Accounting, and minor in Holistic and Alternative Health

I have always been fascinated by birth.

My eyes really opened to the amazing world of birth when I became pregnant.

I love to help women achieve the birth they want while

expanding my own knowledge and gaining new skills.

I have successfully breastfed my son for 2 years.

During that time, I shared/donated my milk to 6 babies in need, and helped over 20 women continue successful nursing relationships.

I run two Facebook groups

(Pregnant in Philadelphia and Pregnant In Delaware County)

which are designed to provide information, resources, and support to expecting/new families.

I believe there are many natural and holistic ways to maintaining individual health and wellness.

I practice many holistic alternatives in my everyday life.

I am able to be a guide to encourage a successful breastfeeding relationship.

I am an advocate for breastfeeding and dream to become a IBCLC. I am always continuing my education and seeking new certifications. I have recently become a Certified Friend of Breech Babies.

My Testimonials

"The best help she provided for me was when it was time for me to push because I was extremely scared during that moment, but she helped me calm down and guided me to push out the love of my life, my baby boy. I couldn't have asked for a better doula and I know she will be able to help many more women during the same process and I wish her well." -Shaneka A.
