I am local to Oklahoma City and I’ve been a birth and postpartum doula serving families for five years. I spent my early twenties doing humanitarian work in Africa and Asia working with women and children, this is where my inspiration for village mindset and a holistic approach started, but my passion for being a doula really began with my mother. She worked so hard but had to shoulder parenting alone which left little time to care for herself.
In my years working with families here and abroad I have learned there is no magic formula. In the U.S. we have every possible resource to care for our children but we often lack community. We aren’t taught to ask for help and we go through the motions until we are burnt out. Parenting isn’t easy but I’m here to help carry some of the weight.
I offer prenatal Education, birth Support and postpartum Meals/hands on help with your new baby. Every family looks different so the care I offer is flexible.
"We have taken the power away from the intuition that lies in the female body and put it in the hands of people that don't reside within our skin.
We know how to birth our babies; we just need gentle reminders.”
