Congratulations on your pregnancy!

​

Pregnancy and birth can bring a lot of excitement, but they can also come with questions, uncertainty, and a whole lot of information to sort through. Maybe you’re feeling overwhelmed by the choices ahead, nervous about birth, unsure how to prepare, or simply wanting someone experienced in your corner who can help you feel more confident along the way.

​

You don’t have to navigate it alone.

​

With 14 years of experience supporting families in our community and more than 170 births attended, I bring a grounded, compassionate, and experienced presence to your birth journey. My role is to help you feel informed, supported, confident, and connected to your own choices—whatever your birth ultimately looks like.

​

Birth can be unpredictable. Plans can change, things can take unexpected turns, and sometimes we need additional support or medical intervention along the way. Feeling empowered isn’t about having everything go to plan. It’s about feeling supported, informed, and respected in whatever path your birth takes. My hope is that you can look back on your birth feeling proud of your story and knowing that you were informed, supported, centered & an active participant in your care, every step of the way.

​

What does that support look like?

​

During our prenatal visits, we take time to talk through your questions, explore your options, prepare for different possibilities, and create a birth vision based on your informed wishes, if desired. I provide up-to-date, evidence-based information and personalized resources so you can make decisions with confidence.

​

When your birthing time arrives, I am there for you. I provide continuous emotional, physical, and educational support for however long your birth unfolds. Whether you are birthing at home or in hospital, my goal is to help you feel safe, grounded, and as calm and comfortable as possible while creating a peaceful birthing environment that feels like yours. I also support your partner and other loved ones, helping them feel confident in their role and working collaboratively with your care providers and support team.

​

And the support doesn’t end when your baby arrives. Through postpartum visits and feeding support, I continue to be there as you settle into those first days and weeks of parenthood. I believe there are several births taking place: the birth of a baby, the birth of a family, and the birth of each parent. It is a distinct honour to support families through all of them.

​

My approach

​

Birth is a transformative experience, and how you feel during it matters. I want you to feel heard, respected, prepared, and genuinely cared for—not pressured toward a particular kind of birth. Whether your birth unfolds exactly as you imagined or takes an entirely different path, you deserve to feel supported through it.
