I am a trained postpartum doula, and an experienced mother, housekeeper and cook.  I provide care that is compassionate, free of judgment, and supportive of your parenting choices.

My training is through DONA International.  I have completed the reading, breastfeeding course and workshop portions of the DONA training but I am still working towards my certification.  Until I am certified, my rates will reflect my relative lack of experience.

However, as the mother of a 3 1/2 year old daughter, I have plenty of real-life experience to draw on.  I am also a former restaurant cook, and no slouch in the laundry, cleaning, and household chores department.  I actually like small children, even when they’re stressed and behaving like they have been raised by baboons.  (Sometimes, they’re more fun that way.)
