About Me

I am a Christian certified doula and have attended 81 labors as of 1/2026. I am very active in the birth community of Eastern NC, and have hosted community baby showers and free childbirth classes since 2022 (my non-profit is Baby Showers of Blessing Inc). I have had opportunites to represent doula work at large events such as the annual March of Dimes conference. I am well known for forming The Duplin Doulas & Eastern NC Doulas and broadening Medicaid coverage and accessibility to doulas for all women. I have six children of my own, including 3 natural births *two at home* but support mamas no matter what their birth goal is, while providing evidence based & heart based knowledge. I am an experienced advocate, educated guide, and caring "big sister" to all of my clients. I know when things are going as they should & I speak up with something is wrong! I look out for you. I know when you need that extra nudge of encouragement or words of reassurance. I hope that by being your doula, you have a better birth experience and move into motherhood with a heart full of joy and love for yourself & your growing family. Im very blessed to be called into this work!

My classroom space I had in Beulaville.

Growing up as the big sister to 2 little sisters definitely helped prepare me for doula work. I will look out for you too!
