A collaborative Doula service that provides women the care and support they need/want prenatally, birthing, and postpartum. This support is offered to women across all demographics, ethnicities, and socio-economic status.

With love, always,

I am originally from a small farming town in Southern Alberta, and have lived in the Fraser Valley for five years. After pursuing a college degree in art and music, I realized I was passionate about wellness of being and existing, and this led me into the world of holistic health in 2021. After working for a company that specialized in holistic health and herbal medicine, and eventually working in the Downtown Eastside of Vancouver at a rehabilitation Centre for women with babies/children, I very naturally transitioned into the world of doula care.
I graduated from Pacific Rim College in the Holistic Doula Program in spring of 2024, which is a unique 270-hour program that prepares students to work as Prenatal, Birth, and Postpartum Doulas. Here I studied Herbal Medicine and Holistic Nutrition for pregnancy and postpartum, Anatomy and Physiology, and Acupressure and Yoga Therapy. This is the most comprehensive Doula program offered in North America, and I am grateful to offer this high level of training and education to the Vancouver community.
I love cultivating creativity; sewing, cooking and journaling in my spare time. I love a warm hug from a friend, a walk in the rain, and a hot cup of nettle tea, among other things. I strive to live simply and carefully, noticing the beauty that surrounds me at every moment in British Columbia. I have a true passion for community based care and holistic methods of healing.
I commit to uplift and empower prenatal, birthing and postpartum women; I commit to provide continuity of care throughout these seasons. I commit to creating and upholding safe and welcoming spaces either through words, actions or physical.
