My expectations: When clients reserve my services as their Doula— I am committed to your due date and will honor your due date. If one does not contact me during labor and delivery, you have restricted my services for the care I could have provided to another mother who truly needed my care and comfort!


My goal is to provide genuine heartfelt care and knowledge based assistance to those who are welcoming new life into the world.

I am now accepting clients through Maryland Medicaid. GOOD NEWS— When I attend your birth Maryland Medicaid pays for your birth Doula!

I am the first doula provider for the state of Maryland!

Giving birth is a life changing experience…

As a doula, my wish for you is to have the most positive experience possible through unconditional emotional, physical and informational support. The loving support I offer is both, memorable and everlasting in your birthing experience.


About Me

I have been a doula for over 19 years and have attended over 515 births. I attended my daughter Julie’s birth of our first grandson in 2003 and never looked back. I am passionate about my work and take a great deal of pride in the strong bonds I develop with my expectant mothers and fathers. Currently serving families in Baltimore County, Howard county, Harford county, Baltimore City, Silver Spring, Bethesda, Rockville, Annapolis, surrounding counties. I look forward to meeting you!
