Since becoming a mother I have learned that I love supporting women and families through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. I have become a doula to follow this passion.
I believe that natural birth is what is natural for you.
I have confidence in you - your body, your baby, and your birth partner. You will know what is best for you. I will assist you and your partner to make informed decisions. I also provide comfort, care, and support for both of you when and how I am needed. I believe in the benefits of breastfeeding, however I know it is a learned skill that requires mom and baby to work as a team. As both a Birth Doula and Postpartum Doula, I provide support for nursing mothers and babies. As your doula, I will help you and your family to remember your pregnancy, birth, and baby's first weeks as a joyful and positive experience. Your memories will last a lifetime!

At 59, I am eagerly looking toward retirement from one profession and the commencement of another--as a doula! As a grandmother of eight, I really feel that I have so much to offer--maturity, strong convictions, and passion! I have had the privilege of being present at the births of several friends and family members, including some of my grandchildren! Please contact me to find out how I can help you to have an empowered birth!
“I believe that every child is a miracle, that comes into the world as an equal, with the opportunity to make a difference, with the capacity to love, to give, and to share. I believe that each birth experience is unique and a new beginning, an event that every mother remembers and the empowerment that they achieve helps make them stronger and better mothers. My wish is to offer my skills and compassion, to contribute to the experience and to make those memories strong and positive.” Ruth
