"Birthing is a Sacred Ceremony! Its an act of Worship and Communion with The Divine! Birthing is an Intimate Dance between the Spiritual and Physical Realms that requires endurance and concentration while yet unfolding and surrendering to the Divine Process." Dr. TaMara
As a Birth Doula is to provide Sacred physical, emotional, mental, Spiritual, energetical and informational and non-judgmental support to women, and their support team, throughout their entire pregnancy, from prenatal to postpartum. I also assist with encouraging and facilitating communication with the staff at the birthplace to ensure that you have the information needed to make informed decisions regarding your beautiful baby’s birth.
I Embody the Ancient Ancestral Healing Wisdom and ways of our ancestors to empower women to reclaim their right to a safe, healthy, memorable, and Sacred Journey to birth. Using a beautiful combination of ancestral teachings, Spiritual and natural Healing modalities, I teach women and their birth team about the beauty of the female body and the Sacred journey through pregnancy and beyond. I also work to improve the birth experiences for women by dismantling the societal narratives, culture mores, stigmas, fears, etc. around birthing!
I offer a holistic mind, body, spirit and soul approach for the woman on her journey towards pregnancy. Whether the pregnancy will be natural or assisted, I offer individualized fertility support. The types of support may include but is not limited too:

AS A DOULA, I DO NOT:
Work for your care provider or hospital.
Cannot - and do not - guarantee a specific outcome for your birth
Diagnose or treat problems that may arise in pregnancy or labor.
Perform clinical tasks, such as taking blood pressure, fetal heart check or vaginal exams.
Make decisions for you or tell you what to do. I will help you get the information you need to make an informed decision according your Sacred Spirit Birth Plan.
Speak to the staff on your behalf. I will discuss concerns with you and suggest options, as well as encourage you to voice your opinions.
Deliver the baby. If the baby is born on my watch at home, in the car or it is coming quickly, I or your partner will immediately call the ambulance to further assist you. I will not act as a midwife or doctor but in the meantime, I will help keep you calm and guide you until they come.
**Please remember I am NOT a trained medical professional, therefore I will NOT act or service you in that capacity.**
