My name is Lauren. I am a passionate birth worker and postpartum support person dedicated to aiding families on their incredible journey into parenthood. My own transformative experience during labor and postpartum inspired me to embark on this meaningful path, shaping my commitment to provide compassionate and comprehensive care to birthing individuals and their partners. As someone who took every measure to prepare for an empowered birth, only to face unexpected twists and turns, I understand the profound impact that labor can have on one's physical, emotional, and mental well-being. This personal journey fueled my determination to become a doula, ensuring that no one navigates this transformative experience alone. I bring to my practice not only professional training and expertise but a genuine understanding of the emotional and physical complexities of childbirth and early parenthood. My goal is to be more than just a doula; I am here to be your advocate, confidante, and unwavering support system. Whether you are expecting your first child or adding to your beautiful family, I am dedicated to being IN IT with you. It would be an honor to join you on this incredible adventure, offering the support (mind, body, spirit), knowledge, and compassionate care you deserve.

My approach as a birth doula is entirely client-centered. I’m here to understand you, your family, and your unique needs. My goal is to support you in labor, not only as a barrier, but as an extension of you and your family, ensuring you feel educated, honored, and empowered throughout the process. Rather than being a passive participant, you’ll be actively engaged and in the drivers seat of decision making during your birth. Unlike other providers you may see occasionally, I meet with you and your family regularly to build a deep connection and trust. I’ll join you as early in labor as you wish and stay by your side through every moment until your baby is born and fed. I’m here as a constant source of support and encouragement, helping you achieve a positive and fulfilling experience before, during, and after birth.
