A Little Background Information
Although I have lived on both coasts, I have called
Southern Colorado my home since 1986. I graduated from
the University of Colorado-Colorado Springs with a
Bachelors Degree in Anthropology. Although being a Birth
Doula is my true calling, I learned a lot about how the
world births their babies during my studies in college. I am
in a constant state of learning within the birthing field.
Whether it be through reading every book I can get my
hands on, studying the Cochrane Library’s collection of
studies, taking/sponsoring workshops or attending
conferences and seminars-continually keeping myself up-to-
date on the best most recent research and birthing methods
is a key part of my work as a doula- outside of the labor
room.
Of course, my husband and three children are the light of
my life. My personal birth history consists of a fetal
demise at 24 weeks, a cesarean birth at term after extended
labor, a homebirth VBAC with no complications and an
induced hospital VBAC respectively.
In addition to my exceptional doula services, I also offer
evidence-based, private, and completely customizable
Childbirth Education classes. I generally offer childbirth
education to my doula clients only, however some
exceptions can be made.
In addition to being a Certified Doula through DONA
(Doulas of North America International), I am also a
Certified Childbirth Educator through CAPPA (Childbirth
and Postpartum Professional Association). I am a member
of Colorado Birth Resources, The Pikes Peak Regional
Doula Association, birthNetwork, CAPPA, DONA and
ICAN-International Cesarean Awareness Network.

Doula and Childbirth Educator
offering Doula Care and Childbirth
Education in Colorado Springs, and
the south Denver Metro area
including Castle Rock and Parker.
I have often been asked, ‘Why did
you become a doula?’. My response
is simple. I have been a doula my entire adult life. I have had a
life-long interest in pregnancy and birth and a passion for
supporting women and their partners through the birth process
into parenthood. In fact, I didn’t really become a doula, it’s in
my blood. I am by nature a doula: I nurture, I support, I listen,
I understand. I supported family members as well as numerous
friends through their pregnancies and births long before I had
ever heard of a doula or began my official study to become a
Certified Birth Doula in 2003. I have supported women and
families through many different kinds of birth experiences
including natural unmedicated births, cesarean sections,
medicated births, vaginal birth of twins, inductions and VBACs.
I am passionate about the value and importance of the birth
experience which forever changes a woman-creating a mother,
a family and memories that last a lifetime. I feel privileged to be
allowed to serve women and their families during this most
important time.
