Hi, my name is Katelyn, and I’m a certified Full-Spectrum doula. I have experience supporting families through VBAC, high-risk pregnancies, and IVF journeys. I believe that every birth story is unique, and my role is to provide steady, compassionate support—emotionally, physically, and informationally—through each step of the process. My background includes working closely with clients navigating complex or medically supported births, and I’m deeply committed to creating a calm, empowering space where families feel safe, heard, and in control of their choices. Whether you’re preparing for a vaginal birth after cesarean, managing a high-risk pregnancy, welcoming a baby after fertility treatment, or have a generally "normal" pregnancy, I’m here to walk beside you with care and confidence. It’s an honor to support families during such a transformative time, and I’m grateful to be part of this work.

Welcome! I provide compassionate, personalized doula support for families navigating pregnancy, birth, and the early postpartum period. I have experience supporting VBAC, high-risk pregnancies, and IVF journeys, offering emotional, physical, and informational guidance every step of the way. Whether you're planning a hospital birth, home birth, or anything in between, I’m here to help you feel confident, supported, and empowered throughout your experience. Let’s create a birth journey that’s centered on you.
We are so grateful for our amazing doula! From the very beginning, she was incredibly responsive and always made herself available to meet with us in person, which made a huge difference compared to virtual support. She answered all of our questions with patience and expertise, and guided us through choosing the right baby products, which was so helpful as first-time parents. When I was unexpectedly hospitalized for five weeks due to a pregnancy complication—placenta previa that later transformed into vasa previa—she went above and beyond to support us. She went to our home and packed my hospital bag, making sure I had everything I needed. She also helped us with buying a stroller after discovering that our original choice wasn’t compatible with our car seat, and even installed the car seat for us. Throughout my hospital stay, she visited me regularly, offering comfort and reassurance during a very difficult time. The birth ultimately resulted in a 1.5-hour C-section due to the vasa previa condition. She was there when I woke up, feeling extremely sick and overwhelmed, and I truly don’t know what I would have done without her emotional and mental support for both me and my husband. Her presence and guidance made us feel supported and empowered throughout the entire process. In the postpartum period, she continued to be an incredible resource. She came to our home, offered advice on caring for our baby, and helped us install and learn how to use several products we had bought or received but had no idea how to use. Her hands-on support and practical guidance made a world of difference as we adjusted to life with our newborn. We truly couldn’t have asked for a better doula. She was our guardian angel, and we are so grateful she came into our lives. We highly recommend her to anyone looking for exceptional care and support during pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

I don’t even know where to begin, because words hardly feel like enough to capture what Katelyn meant to us during my labor and delivery. From the very beginning, she was an unwavering pillar of support — calm, knowledgeable, and always just a text away. Whether I had a random question or needed reassurance during those anxious final weeks, she was there, guiding us with warmth and compassion. Then came the big day — and oh, what a movie-style labor it was. (Only 10% of pregnancies unfold this way, and no book, doctor, or classes could’ve prepared us.) When my mucus plug came out, Katelyn stepped in without hesitation. Even when the hospital initially sent us home, she calmly helped us understand what was happening and what to expect next. Only 2 hours later, my water broke with a dramatic gush — just like in the movies — she was already on her way to support us. What followed was a true marathon: 26 hours of labor, no sleep, emotional highs and lows, and waves of intensity. Through it all, Katelyn stood by us like a rock. She helped us stay grounded when everything felt overwhelming and never wavered, even as the hospital dealt with a shortage of nursing staff. She guided me with position changes, and ensured I felt safe and supported — especially as I had opted for an epidural birth. But beyond the physical support, Katelyn was a strong advocate for my birth plan. She made sure my voice was heard and my wishes were respected throughout the process. If you’re considering hiring a doula, do it — and if you’re lucky enough to have one like Katelyn, you’ll be in the best hands. Her strength, knowledge, and genuine care made all the difference. If I ever do this again, I’d choose her in a heartbeat.
