CD (DONA)

I am the founder of Love Your Labor doula services and a DONA certified doula. Being a doula is my JOB and my JOY! My hope is that I may bring a calming and encouraging presence to your birthing experience.


What a blessing and a joy it is to be a mother.  I have found that labor doesn’t end when the babe emerges from the birth canal. Truly, motherhood is a lifelong labor, but one we are called to LOVE.  The births of my boys were life-defining events for my husband and me. As a mother, I understand the desire for care and protection during the intimacy of birth, for someone to mother the Mother.

I AM A MOM!

I AM A DOULA!

I have attended hospital and home births, worked with OBs and midwives. I have cared for laboring women from New York to Tennessee.


Through education, birth preparation and with the loving support of a trained doula, you can feel confident in your choices during your labor.


The sacredness of birth is indisputable, a mystery in which we are blessed to participate.

What does it mean to Love Your Labor?

“To see the hard work of childbirth as an empowering and blessed first step on the lifelong journey of motherhood.”
