I'm a full spectrum doula, award winning birth photographer, and leader of the best doula team in Northwest Arkansas! Our team provides compassionate, evidence-based support to pregnant and postpartum people in NWA and beyond. While each of us has a different personality, working style, and training background, we are all united in purpose to help you have the best birth and postpartum experience possible. We bring a deep commitment to honoring your unique history and birthing philosophy. Your body, your birth! It matters that you feel seen, heard and held during this pivotal experience in your life. All of our doulas are committed to providing you with non-biased, evidence-based information regarding childbirth and baby feeding options. We will accompany you down whatever path your pregnancy leads. Hands-on support, comfort strategies for labor, effective positions for pushing — these are the things people expect from their doula. What’s harder to name is that heart connection when someone truly sees you in your powerful, vulnerable glory and speaks right to your core. “You are doing this and I am so damn proud of you.” We are here for that.

Hey there, I’m Ava! I have been a birth + postpartum doula, childbirth educator, and 200hr certified yoga teacher for over 5 years. My work centers around providing evidence based, unbiased support. I won’t lie, it’s a pretty sweet gig – I have the privilege of seeing families form & parents rock their new roles is the everyday. My passion for pregnancy and postpartum also extends beyond my work as a doula. I am fortunate to work with several organizations striving to improve the maternal mortality rate in Arkansas; as well as serving on the Arkansas Reproductive Health Advisory Board. When I’m not doing birth-y things, you might find me chasing down my kiddos, drinking coffee (see: kids), or snuggled up with a blanket & book.
