About me

Hi parents! I am here to support you and your family in whatever way I can to make your experience of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum easier. I am trained as a full-spectrum doula meaning I can confidently support you during pregnancy, at your birth, and in the postpartum period day or night. I have dedicated my life to showing up for mothers so this unique season of life can be filled with magic, support, and re-birth for you. Support on this journey makes a world of difference. Should you run into any issues I am also a licensed therapist and take on clients to help them navigate the sometimes unsettling and roaring seas of unexpected troubles. You are not alone!

Molly went above and beyond my expectations helping my family prepare and welcome our new baby. She created a safe space for me in such a vulnerable, stressful, and uncertain time of my life. Molly is reliable, trustworthy, exceptionally smart, and very in tune with her surroundings. She has a kind and comforting energy around her that requires little, if any, need for adjustment. I felt validated, listened to, and understood. Molly helped me feel capable of myself, loved and cared for, and answered to my needs without having to ask. I would not be in the same place that I am without Molly as our doula. I highly recommend her services and couldn't ask for a better person to guide me and my family.

When I lived in Chicagoland, I had two children and needed someone trusted to help with my children. Being new to the area and having no family, I relied on her for assistance. She was someone I could trust to help and did not have to worry about my children. Molly has the ability to take chaos and unknown and put minds at ease with her specialized skill set in the counseling world. She has nannied for various ages including infants. She researched and learned all about being a doula to help others who are facing this and want an advocate on their side. I highly recommend Molly to anyone looking for someone who understands and puts their needs and the needs of their family first. She will always advocate for you and do her best to make sure the process is an amazing one.
