I've attended births for the past 12 years.  It is always a great honor to be present at a birth.  I have provided labor support at home and in the hospital.  It is my goal to help women understand their strength and ability during the unknown experiences of labor, and to help guide the woman and her family though the process.  In the home birth setting I act as both doula to the laboring woman,  and assistant to the midwife's needs. I am also a breastfeeding coach and in training to become a certified EMT.
