About Chrissi

My Journey with Birth Experiences and Doula Support for Expecting Mothers

I got into doula work because with each of my personal birth experiences, I gained invaluable insights into the many possible paths that childbirth can take. Every birth is unique, and through my journey, I’ve come to understand the balance between being well-prepared and the ability to surrender to the different possibilities in birth and postpartum.

My desire to support families during this transformative experience has progressed with each family I’ve supported since becoming a doula. I learn from every family and mother I support and grow not only as a doula but also as an individual, a mother, a wife, a daughter, a sister, a friend and community member.

My passion is to empower expecting mothers and their families by providing them with the knowledge and education they need to confidently approach their birthing process. Whether you are preparing for a natural birth, a hospital delivery, or a cesarean birth, my goal is to equip you with the tools to make informed decisions, feel in control, and build productive relationships within your support team and providers.

As I continue to grow in this work, I plan to expand into full-spectrum doula services, offering compassionate support for all of life’s sacred moments, from pregnancy and childbirth to postpartum and beyond.

How I Can Support Your Unique Birth Journey

As your dedicated birth doula, I’m here to help you prioritize your personal birth plan and offer nonjudgmental, compassionate support throughout your individualized birthing experience. I believe that every mother deserves to feel empowered, supported, and respected during this transformative time. My role is to provide continuous physical, emotional, and informational support, helping you feel confident and in control during labor, delivery, and postpartum recovery and experience

Whether you are a first-time mother or preparing for your next child, I am here to guide and support you in making your birth experience as positive and fulfilling as possible.
