    How I got started

    I became passionate about birth before children were on the radar for my life. I was married for two years before trying to conceive. It was a whole year before, when I was actively using fertility awareness to prevent pregnancy and I was amazed at how my body operated. It was a cascade of rabbit holes I found myself digging into while learning the beauty of trusting my body. I began to read books and watch birth videos when I had spare
    time. I was not only in awe of how miraculous conception was but
    how miraculous birth is too! I thought to myself, I don’t have a
    medical degree but I know I’m supposed to be supporting women. This is my passion. This is what I love to talk, learn, and nerd out about. Birth is incredible and so is Fertility Awareness, it opens the door for women to step into their bodies and trust the process.

    Values

    We see pregnancy, birth, and the growth of a family as one of the most beautiful things given by
    God. As a Doula, I am privileged to help women and their partners make these experiences as positive and healthy as possible. I am grateful to
    have sat under DONA doula International classes, so that I may offer support to women and families in Middle Tennessee. I have also
    been certified as a Biblical Birth Educator. I believe women's bodies are powerful and wonderfully designed.
