Oak and Ivy Doula Service
My Professional Journey
I have supported pregnant women and new moms as a professional Doula since 2021, but my experience with pregnancy, birth and babies goes back more than 15 years.
With Oak and Ivy Doula Service you will be in experienced hands. I can't wait to share my knowledge and expertise with you and learn from our experience together.
If you welcome me into your birth space, or your home I will be there as a non-judgemental, extra set of hands. I want to support you in whatever way I can.
Please reach out if you have questions or would like to have a free consult.

BeboMia,

1 in 5 women are affected by post partum mood disorders, but the stigma around it often prevents people from reaching out for help. This training helps to identify, and find ways to treat PPMD.
Experience
I have been working with moms my whole life. I have been called a baby whisperer. Babies seem to feel really comfortable with me. I am often able to sooth and comfort little ones.
I have spent so much time with mothers and children all through my life. I have built a lot of experience and knowledge over my lifetime.
