how it works

- Ina May Gaskin

"Whenever and however you give birth, your experience will impact your emotions, your mind, your body, and your spirit for the rest of your life."

I am a  mama of three spitfire little ladies. I had three good but very different pregnancies  and birth experiences. I learned with my second that with education and support I could have the birth I envisioned not what I am told that I wanted. After that I knew that everyone deserved to have choices and have the birth they want.

about me

I'm Teri, doula and birth enthusiast. I'm so happy you're here and want to tell you a bit about why i do what i do!. 

Hi there!

why hire a doula

the evidence is clear

A doula provides evidence based support, guidance, education to a pregnant woman and her partner before, during, and after labor. As well as in the 4th trimester. Benefits of having a doula can include reduced induction rates, fewer requests for pain meds, increased chance of a natural birth, improved postpartum mental health,  family bonding with partner and siblings. increased movement during labor, comfort and reassurance, lactation support, and greater satisfaction. (There are so many more but I do not have enough space to list them all.)

"Teri came to my home birth very last minute because my midwife and doula were not going to make it in time for my first twin because my labor had progressed so quickly. Teri dropped everything with no notice and raced down the road to my house. She helped coach me in the transition stage with my daughter, helped my husband with anything that needed done and talked with my midwife on the phone to keep her updated on my progress. She was absolutely amazing, when I needed her she was there.  I would recommend her to anyone if you’re looking for someone who is just so genuine and makes sure that experience is amazing."

- Katie

"Teri came onto my birth team for my home birth only a few weeks before I went into labor, and she was a fantastic addition! She listened to all of my wants and guided me both emotionally and physically through labor. When I was vocal about pain, she quickly offered coping mechanisms and showed my husband how to best support me. After my daughter was born, Teri did laundry and dishes, made us food, and checked in with me days after. We are so thankful for Teri "

- Austin

"Teri was immensely helpful during my wife's first birth. Teri was there emotionally for my wife and helped with pain management throughout using holistic approaches. You can tell Teri truly cares for her clients and is passionate for being a mother's advocate."
