Postpartum Doula and Certified Lactation Consultant
Hello! I am a birth doula, postpartum doula, and lactation consultant (CLC) in Northern Virginia. I have been working in the birth and postpartum space since 2020. I am overjoyed to have found a career that allows me to serve women and their families during one of their most intimate and powerful experiences. I am working towards certification as an IBCLC and plan on working to support maternal and infant health for many years to come.
Over the past several years, I have supported dozens of families throughout the DMV. Presently, I am focusing on providing postpartum support and infant feeding support to families, but I occasionally serve as a backup birth doula when needed! I am particularly passionate about providing holistic postpartum support to the mother-baby dyad. My favorite aspect of postpartum care is ensuring mother and baby are nurtured and well-fed- I love cooking for clients!
I am currently pursuing an Master's in social work at Virginia Commonwealth University. When I am not working or studying, I love cooking new recipes, reading, and taking weekend trips throughout the East Coast.
