My Story
When I was 23, my first son, Simeon, was stillborn. Eight years later I gave birth to my rainbow baby, and although I loved him so much, I was anxious, afraid and didn't feel in control of my journey. So I hired a doula. She helped me take the reins of my pregnancy and make it what I wanted, while understanding that things won't always go as planned. I felt safe, and I had far less stress. That experience is why I became a doula. I'm also a public school teacher (M.Ed) and community organizer, and I believe that when adults heal and feel supported, our children feel it too. As your doula, I'm here to walk alongside you through pregnancy, childbirth and parenthood in a positive and healthy way.

Stephanie was Heaven sent to us in 2020. We lost our son and she has provided services to myself and family for most of 2020.
She is kind, compassionate, knowledgeable, and such a loving energy. I highly recommend her to anyone having a baby, needing grief support or just to be part of an amazing community.
