About me

I am a certified doula with ten years of experience in supporting and empowering families through their journeys. My passion for this work began with babysitting in my community, which then led to my role as an infant daycare teacher and eventually to becoming an overnight caregiver for new families. It has been an honor and privilege to be trusted by families during such a pivotal time in their lives. Creating lasting memories, empowering women, and providing comprehensive support are central to my approach. I am deeply committed to making a positive impact with the families I support, offering them care, guidance, and a safe space for communication. I look forward to supporting you!
