A Little Bit About Me

I’m a DONA-certified Birth Doula and CAPPA-certified Postpartum Doula, Body Ready Method certified® pro, but my most important titles are mother of nine and grandmother to eleven. Having given birth nine times—seven in hospitals and two beautiful water births at home—I know firsthand how invaluable it is to have a knowledgeable, supportive person by your side. As your Doula, I help you see that birth is a natural, achievable process, guiding you and your partner through this life-changing and empowering experience.

After raising and homeschooling my rambunctious kids for 34½ years, I decided to follow my passion for birth and postpartum work. I’ve found it incredibly fulfilling to accompany families to safe, desirable birth experiences and ensure they get the best possible start as a family. I love providing tools and guidance so parents feel confident, supported, and prepared for their baby’s needs. Every time I witness a new life come into this world, I feel honored, and every family I work with teaches me something new. My business, Wise Woman Birth Services, reflects the wisdom I love sharing with families.

I’m trained in Spinning Babies techniques, Gena Kirby’s Rebozo for Doulas, Advanced Comfort Measures, and Belly Binding. Most recently I have become a Body Ready Method Pro, excited to share these invaluable techniques with my clients.  I attended college and nursing school at the University of Colorado.

When I’m not supporting families, I love working out—weightlifting, Zumba, Barre, and swimming—and spending time with my growing family.
