Pronouns: she/her

I am a Certified Postpartum Doula (CAPPA), a Certified Lactation Educator and Counselor (UCSD), certified in pediatric CPR (AHA) and a mother to a teenager. In an effort to stay constantly informed and up-to-date on new research and follow my passion for learning, I am consistently attending workshops and trainings and keeping up-to-date on my certifications. Based in the Eagle Rock/Highland Park, I serve the greater Los Angeles area, including Pasadena and Glendale.

Since moving to Los Angeles in 2015 and receiving formal training as a Postpartum Doula, I have worked with more than 100+ families.  For ten years I have supported first time parents, as well as expanding families, and parents of multiples.

As a postpartum doula, I provide comfort measures for the whole family, and guidance to help ease the transition into parenting. I encourage families to make informed, evidence based choices based on their individual philosophies.

Focusing on empowering families and instilling confidence is a cornerstone of my practice, and it is an honor to get to work with parents in the early, intense weeks following a birth of a new baby. As every family transitions into parenthood,  I strive to fill in any gaps and uplift the family to maximize their experience so they have a gentle and memorable beginning.
