About me

As a RI Certified Perinatal Doula (CPD), member/owner of RI Birthworker Co-op, and member of Doulas of Rhode Island, I am committed to providing inclusive, compassionate, and evidence-based support so you can feel fully informed, respected, and empowered as you enter this next chapter of your life. I am for the ones who wish to honor their pregnancy and birth experience as the sacred rite of passage that it is; preparing with patience, intention, and care. For the ones who have a clear vision for their birth and are willing to take the necessary steps to make that vision a reality, while holding space for the fact that birth is a force of nature that can never be fully predicted or controlled. For the ones who seek to understand the benefits, risks, and alternatives of each of their options, while ultimately heeding their intuition. For the ones who want their babies to arrive earthside in the gentlest and most loving way imaginable. All are welcome.
