About me

DSC_3407.jpg
My philosophy

I want to positively impact birthing people's lives. Giving birth & the journey leading up to it may be the most memorable, monumental and vulnerable time for many people & their families. My goal is to help make the journey of childbirth the best it can be, by supporting mom & partner in every way I am able. I want you to have a positive birth experience, with whatever direction, with twists and turns that it may go in. I believe birthing people can and deserve to have an empowering and fulfilling birth experience. Being present during this time in people's lives is a gift and a privilege. It is truly my passion.

My story

I am a proud mother of a wonderfully sweet little boy. I know firsthand how important the birthing and postpartum experience are and how they can be nurtured while empowering with the right support. When I became pregnant with my son, and my sister had my niece shortly after, I was drawn to maternal wellness. My passion is to assist other women & their families during the remarkable and wonderful time of late pregnancy, labour and postpartum. 

By nature, I am caring, empathetic, supportive, positive, nurturing and warm. My personality harmonizes with the definition of a doula. I truly love my job & passion.

"Emily was a perfect addition to our birthing team. She is thoughtful, caring, and brings a positive energy to her role at all times. It was a relief and calming for me to know that Emily was in our corner. I can't say enough. I would highly recommend her services to anyone looking to hire a birth and postpartum doula."
