Your Birth & Postpartum Doula

Thoughtful, responsive care — shaped around you.

I’m so glad you’re here.

My work centres on birth and the changes that come with it; new roles, big feelings, and recovery. I create a steady, honest space where you can make choices with confidence and feel supported every step of the way.

My Path to This Work

I was drawn to birth work because it was the closest thing to magic I could find. Watching women move through such a raw, feral transformation, seeing them come apart and then rebuild stronger, made me want to be part of that process in a meaningful way.

Over time, I’ve learned that support during birth and postpartum can’t be rigid or one-size-fits-all.

Birth is unpredictable. Postpartum is unpredictable.

My role is to stay adaptable, meet you where you are, and make sure you never have to go through it feeling alone. I like to call myself the ‘grey area doula’ because no part of my support is rigid, I adjust how I show up so it meshes with what you need most.

I work intuitively, paying attention to the details you might not even realize matter. If something needs to be done, I take care of it without you having to ask. My goal is to create a stable, grounding presence so you can focus fully on yourself and your baby.

What I Believe.

Birth changes everything; your body, your rhythms, your sense of self. You deserve support that feels safe, adaptable, and truly present through it all. Plans can shift, feelings can change, and that’s okay. Support should meet you where you are, not the other way around. You don’t have to have every detail figured out to be ready for what’s ahead; you just need to know you’ll be surrounded by care, guidance, and the reassurance that you’re not alone.

Who I Work Best With.

I work best with clients who want grounded, steady support through birth and the weeks that follow. My approach works best when there’s mutual respect, open communication, and a willingness to lean into the support we create together. This is an intimate, often vulnerable season, and the most meaningful work happens when we approach it as a team; with truth, honesty, and a shared commitment to making the space as supportive as possible. You should feel comfortable with your doula; that sense of ease is important. Most people know within the first few minutes of chatting whether it feels like the right fit.

What Grounds Me.

When I’m not working with clients, I’m usually outside trail running or biking. I train for a marathon or ultramarathon every year, and this year I’m working toward my first 100km trail race in Newfoundland! I like having a goal to work toward and spend a lot of time on the trails around Bragg Creek and Kananaskis in the summer and fall.

I’m married to an amazing, very supportive husband. We’ve been together for almost 7 years and met working as lifeguards. We also have two cats, Alvina (the angel who has never done anything wrong in her life) and Phoebe (the one who keeps me up all night while she begs for food).

I read a lot, so if you’re into books, we’ll get along just fine. I mostly reach for literary fiction, historical fiction, thrillers, and fantasy, and if I find a book I love, I’ll usually finish it in a day or two. I’m always up for swapping recommendations!

I’m also a very creative person. I’ve had an acrylic painting business for the past five years, focusing on semi-realistic landscapes inspired by the Pacific Northwest and the Canadian Rockies. More recently, I’ve gotten into pottery, and my kitchen cabinets are overflowing with mugs I’ve made, all with woodland and mountain themes. It’s the perfect winter hobby, and I’ve definitely been known to stay at the studio until 2 or 3am when I’m working on something I just can’t pull myself away from.
