About me
For as long as I can remember I've possessed a deep empathy and a desire to nurture others. After practicing massage therapy for seven years, I felt called to look for new and more impactful ways to serve and uplift using my skills and intuition. After having had two children of my own, the idea of working with families during their journey to parenthood felt like a natural direction to pursue. I received my certification in 2018 and I haven't looked back since! As a birth and postpartum doula I strive to offer intentional and evidence based support tailored to you, through active listening and acknowledgement of your personal truths and choices. I aim to become my highest self through service to others while embracing inclusivity and the beauty, complexity, and diversity within each individual and family. I support all families through the entire range of reproductive journeys.

Service introduction
Our ideas about what birth entails began to take shape long before we conceived. Through a combination of media portrayals, stories about birth from friends and family, and a lack of common knowledge about our bodies and our choices in regards to birth, our understanding informed the way we would eventually approach our own birth experience. But now you’re here! It’s really happening. So as we go through evidence-based information together in a way that is organized and easy to digest, equip your partner with all the tools they need to support you, and begin to make preparations, you can pull back the layers of how you’re feeling to find opportunities to look forward to your birth. My intention is to bring clarity to your options and all the things you feel uncertain about by normalizing the unknown and offering validation around your fears and hopes, in turn unveiling the inherent wisdom within you. You know how to birth your baby in the way that is best for you, and though birth can be unpredictable and doesn’t always go the way you plan for, it is my hope you will be able to look back on your birthing experience as an empowered one.

Heather was the perfect person to Support us through our pregnancy journey and during the delivery of our daughter. Her gentle approach and deep knowledge made me feel confident that we’d work well together. She has great instincts as a doula, is kind, generous and flexible. It’s been two and a half years since we worked together and I still think about how fortunate I was to have the opportunity to work with Heather, especially when I’m around new moms who didn’t have this kind of support. She will remain a huge part of my healthy and joyful birthing experience. Thank you, Heather, for supporting me in ways I didn’t know I would need.

I am so pleased so write this review for Heather. Following my first birth ending in a cesarean, I knew I wanted a VBAC with my next pregnancy. From the moment I virtually met Heather via zoom she was warm, welcoming and validated my emotions like nobody ever has. She truly had my back since day 1. Encouraged me to switch providers (thank god I did!) and reassured me my entire pregnancy during any doubts I had. When I was in labor and needed her she came right away and instantly calmed the mood of the room. She supported both my husband and I through labor up until the most magical birth I think I will ever have had which I'm over the moon to say was a successful VBAC. My birth was incredibly redeeming and truly life changing and I would have never been able to do it or have had the confidence in myself without her. She also came to check in on me during my first week post partum. She was like my fairy godmother/big sister the whole way! Parts of me wish I could be pregnant forever just to have her by my side. Thank you Heather!

I highly recommend Heather, she was a fantastic doula! She helped my wife and I navigate the birth of our first kid, and we couldn't have asked for a more caring, loving, knowledgable, trustworthy, and dependable doula to be by our side. We loved working with Heather for many reasons, but my top 3 are: 1) the vast amount of knowledge and expertise she brings to the table, 2) the awareness, respect, and empowerment she gave us as expectant parents to make choices suitable to our beliefs, lifestyle, and comfort, 3) her prompt and clear communication skills, and the support she gave us throughout labor and delivery were immeasurable.
