Hello! I have over 15 years of working with children and families in some capacity: as a preschool teacher, a nanny, and birthing and raising my own little babies. I also have a masters in Human Ecology with a focus on Child and Family Development. I am a postpartum doula, sibling doula and fertility doula supporting your fertility and conception journey- either aiming to get pregnant or avoid pregnancy. I specialize in supporting and attending surgical birth (c-section) with a focus on the postpartum experience. I also lead a local parent baby group open to the community!

 

In my role as a postpartum doula, I strive to support the whole family in welcoming a new baby into the home. Feeding, baby care, self care, sleep, healing...New babies bring big changes! My goal is to ease the transition for new and growing families. I also support other pregnancy outcomes or choices such as miscarriage, loss or, pregnancy release. Choice, autonomy and information are important to me in all aspects of the perinatal journey. ​ 

 

I have supported a diverse array of family arrangements and choices- BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ families, single parents by choice, families that have utilized gestational carriers, families who experienced extended NICU care, and more. When not supporting humans you can find me doing anti-racist work in the community with Families for Justice, pro-abortion work with the Wisconsin Abortion Support Network (WASN), and supporting trans kids with GSafe and TransparentWI. I love devouring books, podcasts, tv shows and all things chocolate.
