“I have been so fortunate to connect with Megan as a labor and postpartum doula. She is knowledgeable, open, and kind. She struck a balance of honoring the physical and emotional significance of childbirth, while also holding space, empowering, and calming me. Her support to navigate unforeseen circumstances in my child’s birth was so helpful.“
“Her check-ins are kind, and low pressure. She has a special awareness of offering information gently, and offering written or linked information so one can access when ready. I could go on; suffice it to say I am so grateful for her lending her supportive and insightful presence to my birth experience.“
-Kristin C.
My goal and reward is always for you to arrive at the beautiful moment where that gorgeous baby is placed on your chest and you get to breath them in for the first time.
We get you to that moment in a number of ways. It often begins with looking over your birth options and birth goals together. It’s totally okay to go into this process without strong feelings of your goals. We will discuss your comfort level, desires, and beliefs. Your ideas for birth can be as detailed or as vague as you like. Some birthing people are thankful taking the lead of their OB or Midwife. Other people may prefer to birth without any intervention from traditional healthcare providers. Both of these birth goals are perfect in their own way. Both of these goals can coexist. Creating your own goals for birth is an integral part of the process. By presenting you with options and providing you with evidence-based research, you can feel empowered to make the right decisions for you and your body.
I have worked in hospitals, clinics, and doctors’ offices, and I understand some of the reasons why things are done a certain way. I have also been on the receiving end of medical treatment that saved my life and ensured the health of my baby. There are reasons they do things the way they do at the hospital, but this doesn’t mean you don’t have any choices. This is your birth story. Togerher, we will get you to that beautiful moment you meet your baby.
