FAQs

  • No, while we have similar philosophies and views about the human body and the birth process, we have different roles. A midwife has a medical degree and keeps mom and baby safe. A doula is a non-medical professional who focuses on physical, emotional, and informational support.

  • I am trained through Birth Arts International, and I have experiences with unmedicated births, medicated births, inductions, belly births, high risk, VBAC, and rainbow babies (births after loss). I have completed trainings in: Birth after Loss & Traditional Postpartum Healing. 

  • I love staying in the loop as far as current research, read a lot, and get most of my information from Evidence Based Birth.

  • Gentle and nurturing–holding space and letting you do your thing, but also a warm presence available to offer guidance and suggestions.
