My Background
For the past fourteen years I have been teaching and practicing yoga in NY. After the birth of my children in 2018, I decided to expand my work and become a birth and postpartum doula. Sharing space with humans gives me so much joy. I look forward to caring for you in your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey.
My triplet pregnancy journey
While pregnant with my sons, I had the pleasure of working with a doula. She helped to light the path forward for my pregnancy and made me feel safe, honored and educated. At times it was challenging, but having someone there to work with was crucial. The safety container that we co-created was what I could keep returning to when things felt overwhelming and intense. For this reason alone I knew I wanted to enter into birth work. I hope to continue this journey and support other birthing people during their pre and postnatal experiences.
