“Birth is an opportunity to transcend. To rise above what we are accustomed to, reach deeper inside ourselves than we are familiar with, and to see not only what we are truly made of, but the strength we can access in and through birth.” -Marcie Macari
ABOUT JEN
As a seasoned and trained birth Doula, with 12 years of experience, I have supported numerous families in bringing new life into the world. I am deeply passionate about guiding families through the transformative journey of birth and postpartum recovery. As someone who has had six natural home births of my own, I have a deep understanding of the physical and emotional needs of the birthing process and becoming a new mother and parent. As a Doula, I bring my knowledge of Hypnobirthing methods, essential oils, and massage. My expertise in Postpartum supports includes Abhyanga (warm oil) massage, herbal bath blends, belly binding, herbal foot bath, newborn soothing techniques, essential oils, and creating effective systems that support new families in adjusting to their new lives.
As a professional mother, I am passionate about empowering families, and I am currently focused on supporting families as a Postpartum Doula, but also continue practicing as a birth Doula. I bring a nurturing presence and holistic approach, and am dedicated to helping new mothers achieve a peaceful birth and fulfilling postpartum experience.
I envision guiding women through the Postpartum period with nourishing foods, emotional support, education, and calming presence. I want to bring my years of experiences and training to help empower women to learn how to tap into their inner strength and wisdom, so they can feel more confident and resilient as they adjust to their new roles. I believe that every woman has the power to navigate this period with grace and ease, and I am dedicated to helping you do just that.
