About Homemade Birth
Bio
As a birth doula and perinatal occupational therapist, I love to help people find success and fulfilment in everyday activities, like birth! I bring a unique and compassionate skill set to provide empathetic, non-judgmental support to clients who may be facing additional challenges during their pregnancy and postpartum journey. While I work with clients in all birth settings, I bring an experienced perspective to those planning a home birth.
Q&A
Q: Are there any specialities in who you serve? (e.g. home birth, VBAC, etc.)
A: As a holistic birth doula I attract clients seeking a demedicalized birth experience and those who want to build trust and confidence in their body's natural birthing abilities.
Q: What are your certifications and trainings?
A: Masters in Occupational Therapy- 2019 Community Aware Birthworker Doula Training - 2024
Q: What's your top piece of advice for an expectant mom?
A: Plan for the birth you want, not the birth you're afraid of.
Q: How do you answer the question: "I want your support but my partner feels like they'll be replaced"?
A: Most partners want to help in birth, either they just don't know how to help, or they feel overwhelmed by the birth process. A doula's role is to educate and support both the client and their partner during the birth process, so both party's can relax and enjoy the birth process as much as possible!

Description
Homemade Birth upholds the body's natural birth design while empowering families to craft unique and meaningful birth experiences. Just as homemade evokes the warmth and comfort of home, I aim to provide the same sense of security and familiarity during childbirth in any setting. As one of life’s most beautiful moments, your birth deserves the same personal care and attention as anything homemade.
