Hey, I’m Jenna!
Your birth and postpartum doula, advocate and supporter. Think of me as your dedicated teammate, here to make sure you feel safe, supported and heard throughout your entire journey.
I’m a huge believer in the power you have within you. My job is to help you tap into that confidence and strength, offering guidance and steady support with lots of compassion and respect.
My goal is simple: to create a peaceful, supportive bubble around you, a nurturing space where you can feel empowered and surrender to the process, knowing you’ve got someone firmly in your corner.
With a heart full of compassion and personal experience as a mom of 4 and a surrogate, I’m here to be your guide and your cheerleader! xo
My Philosophy & Approach
My philosophy is rooted in deep trust in your body’s innate wisdom and in your intuition. I believe your birth experience profoundly matters and there is no single “right” way to give birth.
My role is to provide unbiased, non-judgmental support and evidence-based information so you can make truly informed choices that feel right for you and your family. My ultimate goal is to help you feel safe, supported and empowered, whether your path leads to an unmedicated birth, an epidural, or a cesarean.
You are the expert on your body and your baby. I am here to honor your strength, protect your space and walk alongside you with unwavering respect.

FAQ

The sooner, the better!
I recommend reaching out in your first or second trimester. This ensures my availability for your due date and gives us plenty of time to build a strong relationship, create your birth preferences and for you to get the full value of my prenatal support.
That said, I welcome clients at any stage, it’s never too late to get support! -
Ideally, by your third trimester.
Booking early secures your spot on my calendar and allows us to create a personalized postpartum plan before your baby arrives. Many families find this pre-planning reduces postpartum stress.
Of course, I also accept last-minute bookings if my schedule allows, support is always welcome when you need it! -
Yes, absolutely! I believe every family deserves access to doula support. I offer customized payment plans to split fees into manageable installments. Additionally, a sliding scale is available on a case-by-case basis to ensure services are accessible. All financial arrangements are handled with discretion and respect. Let's discuss what works for your family!

I see my role as supporting your entire family unit. For partners, I act as a calm guide, a resource and a teammate. During birth, I offer reassurance, suggest ways they can comfort you, explain what's happening and ensure they get breaks. In postpartum, I help partners feel confident in their caregiving skills, share the mental load of newborn logistics and ensure they are also nourished and supported. My goal is to help your partner be as involved as they want to be, feeling empowered rather than overwhelmed.
-
Yes! Our roles are complementary. Your midwife manages your clinical care, while I, as your doula, provide continuous physical and emotional support, along with advocacy and informed decision-making guidance for you and your partner. Together, we form a complete team focused on your well-being.
