Who am I?
I love birth! When conversation turns to this topic and I get the opportunity to share all that I have studied and experienced, I get really excited. For me, it all started with my own births.
Questions I asked my self:
- How could everyone go through the same stages of labour but have such a different experience?
- What could I do to make sure I had a better birth?
- What was water birth, and was that something I wanted to do?
- Should I go with a doctor, or a midwife?
- Who should attend the birth?
The great thing about being a doula and an educator is that I get to teach people how to have better births. I strive to bring a hands-on element to my classes, which include practical decision-making strategies, mental and physical techniques for coping with pain, and relaxation exercises.
- I am a certified doula from the “Wise Woman Way of Birth” in Vancouver, BC.
- I am a certified childbirth educator from Birth Arts International.
- I am a certified breastfeeding educator and infant sleep educator from Bebo Mia.
Not only do I bring knowledge from my certifications and training, but also experience from my own births and the many births I have attended as a doula.
