My goal is to make sure that your pregnancy, birth and postpartum time are filled with amazing memories. To allow your transition to parenthood be educated and supported. I want to use my experience as a mother and as a doula to empower you. Nonjudgmental, and understanding support.
After assisting with my sister’s pregnancy in 2009, I knew that the role of a Doula was for me. I am a single mother of two beautiful grown daughters and an auntie to one amazing nephew born and raised in Toronto. I have worked as a Cardiac Technologist, Phlebotomist, and HR Recruiter and in Health and Safety for the Provincial Government as a Product Launch Specialist.
I live in Etobicoke with my partner Robert and our Border Collie rescue Molly.
I will support you through your birth and postpartum experience with ease and comfort, whatever that may look like. I will provide you with resources and evidence based information to guide you and support you.
