Emily | Birth + Postpartum Doula
Emily is a dedicated birth and postpartum doula, passionate about supporting families through the transformative journey of childbirth. A recent graduate of the Lake Country Doulas Birth Doula Course, Emily has cultivated a wealth of knowledge and skills to provide compassionate care tailored to each family's unique needs.
Emily's journey into the world of midwifery and home birth advocacy began with the birth of her two daughters. Her eldest, Elloise, a spirited 7-year-old, was born in a hospital setting after transferring from a birth center, an experience that laid the groundwork for Emily's interest in birthing practices. However, it was the home birth of her 3-year-old daughter, Ellowyn, that truly ignited her passion for home birth and midwifery. The empowering experience of bringing Elowyn into the world in the comfort of her own home deeply resonated with Emily, fueling her desire to support other families seeking a similar path.
Emily believes strongly in a mother's right to choose the birthing experience that best suits her needs and preferences. Whether at a hospital, birthing center, or home, Emily is dedicated to providing unwavering support and respect for each family's decisions. She is committed to empowering mothers to make informed choices and to feel confident in their birthing plans.
In addition to her doula training, Emily also attended culinary school, equipping her with the skills to provide invaluable meal preparation services for postpartum families. She understands the importance of proper nutrition and the challenges new parents face in finding time to cook, and she delights in creating nourishing, delicious meals that support recovery and well-being.
With a profound love for birth and a commitment to her clients' well-being, Emily aims to provide nurturing and informed support throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Her end goal is to become a midwife, continuing to champion the benefits of home birth and personalized care.
Emily's personal and professional experiences uniquely position her to empathize with and advocate for families navigating their own birthing journeys. She is devoted to helping families create positive, empowering birth experiences, just as she has cherished with her own children.
