Your Birth, Your Way

Birth Doula Services in Bulverde

As your pregnancy progresses and your impending birth draws near, you may be wondering if you have the support needed along this journey. My mission - my passion - is to provide support for families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and beyond. I’ve curated my packages to reflect the continuity of support and care that I believe is essential to growing families.

I live in and serve the Bulverde and surrounding area. My luxury packages offer a variety of five components: birth support, postpartum support, birth photography, childbirth education, and placenta services.

“I wanted a low intervention hospital birth and achieved exactly that and it wouldn’t have been possible without her. She provided invaluable advice/knowledge throughout our appointments, reminded me how to breathe, encouraged me, taught me how to push properly and helped advocate and make sure the hospital honored all of my birth wishes…Would I hire her again if we’re blessed with another child? Without a doubt in my mind.”

As a birth doula, I provide continuous physical, emotional, and informational support during labor. I provide virtual support, reminders, and recommendations during early labor. When I join you in active labor, I aim to meet the need in the moment: offering support with comfort, positioning, advocacy, and information.
Every birth is unique and typically includes a combination of partner support, comfort measures, verbal encouragement, facilitating discussions with medical providers, and more.

The goal is helping to facilitate family bonding, aiding in your physical recovery, and providing support so you can feel confident caring for your new baby! Postpartum sessions, typically last about an hour each, allowing for time to unpack the birth experience, talk through newborn care questions, and really get into any burning questions and concerns. I also offer educational Bengkung Belly Binding sessions, which include your own belly bind and warming paste.

With a Masters in Education, I’ve always had a passion for teaching. The goal is informed decision making. The goal is to feel in the drivers seat as you make decisions for your birth, your baby, and your body.
My in-home childbirth education class is designed to arm you with the information needed to make informed decisions and to take on birth with confidence and knowledge. A childbirth class is an essential part of birth preparation. My class is for you if:
•You want to learn practical ways to plan and manage your birth and postpartum period
•You want to dispel your fear of childbirth while building body and birth confidence
•You want to feel in control and in charge of your labor and birth at every stage.

What do you pack in your hospital bag? Are you prepared to advocate for yourself and make informed choices? How can your partner support you best during labor? What are the best ways to cope through the intensity of contractions?
In addition to being a resource to reach out to during your pregnancy, all of my doula packages include prenatal appointment(s) to establish a relationship and discuss your birth preferences. Appointments are 1-1.5 hours, and my goal is to learn how I can best support and assist you during your birth. Yes, we work to create a birth plan, but this time is also to learn more about the hopes and fears you and your partner have about birth, to practice comfort measures, and to strategize ways to prepare for birth and the postpartum period. My mission is to help you achieve the most safe, memorable, and empowering birth experience possible!
