My Story
After years of caring for families in the hospital, I became a Certified Community-Based Doula to continue supporting parents beyond my bedside role.
My goal is to be a calm, caring presence who listens, encourages, and walks alongside families during pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum journey.
Many people tell me I have a calming spirit and a mother’s heart. I consider it a blessing to care for families during one of the most meaningful moments of their lives.
Every family deserves to feel supported, respected, and loved.

Caring for mothers and babies has been my life's work.
-
A doula gives emotional, physical and educational support before, during and after birth. Community based doulas focus on care that reflects the needs and culture of the families they serve.
-
No. Doula support is not medical care. I work alongside your care team and help you feel informed and confident.
-
Yes. I support partners and family members too, so everyone feels prepared.

Representation Matters
As a Black community-based doula, I understand how important it is for families to feel seen, heard, and respected. I am passionate about helping all families navigate pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with confidence, while providing culturally sensitive, compassionate care that honors each family's unique story.
I am proud to be part of a growing community of Black birth workers dedicated to improving birth experiences and outcomes.
As a Christian, serving others is at the heart of who I am. My faith has taught me to love people well, meet them where they are, and care for them with kindness and compassion.
