About me

I serve clients seeking a positive birth experience in Vancouver, Burnaby and North Vancouver. My doula style is pragmatic, direct and non-judgmental. My clients have remarked that I provide a balanced mix of practical help and emotional support. My goal is to give new families knowledge and confidence about the childbirth process so they can go into it feeling positive and well-informed. I like to think of myself as the practical, evidence-based doula – with a deep reverence for the inherent magic of birth as well.

Jessica was an integral part of our birthing. She provided amazing support during a pregnancy, making herself available by phone, text, email and in person when we had concerns, or needed support. Jessica is an understanding, smart, reliable and supportive person who knows so much about pregnancy and birthing, and is able to provide advice and support as, you go through the adventure of childbearing. We feel so fortunate and lucky to have had Jessica as our Doula. As the supporting partner, when Jessica arrived during labor, she was able to take over the situation and provide my birthing partner with support and strategies as needed. Jessica knew when to give space, and when to take action, And was such a delight. After having our first child, I cannot imagine going through another birth without her. We are so thankful for everything Jessica. We are grateful for your involvement and Care

Jessica was exactly who we needed during our journey to parenthood. If you have any doubts about whether or not to get a doula, or if you're concerned that a doula will be too "out there" for your comfort level: fear not. Jessica is an incredibly down to earth, knowledgeable, and amazing person. She did so much to calm our nerves leading up to our birth, and helped us navigate some difficult times. We couldn't be happier about our experience with her, and would recommend her to anyone.
