About Me

I am a Trained Bradley Educator living and working in the New York birth community, and mothering in Inwood. (“Upstate Manhattan” as it were.)

Currently a DONA trained Birth and Postpartum Doula, I see birth education and support as the gateways to the best possible beginning for your child and family. At just a year of attending births, I have a wide range of experiences to draw from and am learning more everyday from the amazing mothers and families I meet. I’m also trained as HypnoBirthing Labor Support and in Neonatal Resuscitation, as I believe all support people attending births should have a wide range of tools to offer.

Further, I’m a Certified Lactation Counselor with a love of lactation, on my path to one day be an IBCLC. Did I mention I’m into all things birthy?

My goal is to support labor education, not merely preparation. I believe at the heart of every mother is someone who wants to do the absolute best for their child. Education helps us make the decisions that facilitate that.

I have a B.A. from the University of Texas in Arlington in Interior Design from the School of Architecture. In addition to teaching childbirth classes, attending births as a doula, and helping encourage women to breastfeed, I raise my son . . . and have an expected new addition on the way, due late June!!
