Postpartum is a time of transition

You’re not who you were, and not yet who you’re going to be

DONA International trained postpartum doula in Richmond, VA.

As a postpartum doula, I specialize in this tender in-between time, providing nurturing support and evidence based information as you navigate the physical, emotional and logistical changes that occur in the days and weeks after birth.

Did You Know…

The postpartum hormone drop is the largest, most rapid hormone change for any human at any point in their life

The U.S. is one of the only countries that puts more focus on pregnancy than on postpartum

100% of parents can benefit from postpartum care in the first month after birth

I provide nonjudgmental, evidence based support and resources so you don’t have to rely on social media or compulsive googling for reassurance of your instincts and decisions.

This enables you to focus on rest, recovery, and bonding as you grow confident in your capabilities during this time of awe and vulnerability.

You are the expert on your baby, your body and your experience.
