About 

 

I am a Nashville native. My interest in birth began as a means of finding work with a more personal interaction and deeper connection than my corporate sales job would allow.  In 2013, I trained as a birth doula and began my journey into birth work.

 

I believe in the inherent strength of women’s bodies and each woman’s ability to bring her child into this world.  As you are preparing for your birth, I encourage you to trust your body and your instincts, as you know your body best. 

 

As a birth doula, my role is to offer non-biased support and encouragement and to hold space with you as you work to birth your baby.  My strengths lie in my ability to set a comfortable and calm environment and to be a quiet, grounding influence.   I can help to answer any questions you may have along the way, offer suggestions in birthing positions and relaxation techniques.

 

In 2015, after the birth of my daughter and a slow postpartum recovery, I was lead to placenta encapsulation as I researched options to help combat fatigue, healing, and milk production for future babies and postpartum periods.  I began the certification process as a placenta encapsulation specialist to offer this benefit to mamas around the Middle Tennessee area.

​

In 2018, I began to prepare postpartum meals and nourishing food preparations, using organically sourced ingredients. Some meals use animal protein ingredients while others are vegetarian and vegan. Many are suitable for individuals on raw diets. The meals are nourishing and delicious. It is thought they help boost milk supply and also help in the recovery post partum and or post surgery. 

​

Today I work as a Post-Partum Doula, while focusing on my nourishing meal preparation service.
