My goal is to serve "with woman" as a birth support in all the places over our beautiful world where I will feel love pull my heart. This is not a business venture, my services will always be just that, a service.
I do ask that if you feel able that you make a donation of $100-$400
I can photograph your birth and also act as your doula or I can leave my camera at home home and take only the role of doula, this is completely your choice.
I currently attend births at Littleton Hospital, in Littleton Colorado
and Swedish Hospital in Englewood Colorado

Who Am I :
I am ever learning, ever improving. I am a deep lover of nature... sunshine on my face and wind in my hair. I love to read, write, think, and create art. I love to ask questions, and search for answers. I love to listen to stories and of course spin my own. I have birthed five beautiful children, two with epidurals and three without. I believe people are good. I believe life is a long bumpy road which leads is exactly where we need to be.
