Certified Labor Doula

International Doula Institute 2017

"Jill whole heartedly dedicates herself to providing an amazing experience through your pregnancy, childbirth, and beyond. My goal was to go epidural free. While everyone else laughed and said I couldn’t do it, she constantly encouraged me and I was able to achieve it because of how prepared I was thanks to her! It’s about understanding the process of labor and the techniques to progress though it and she will teach you!" Bonnie A.

About me

My Training

My Story

I first knew that I wanted to become a Birth Doula shortly after the birth of my first daughter. While I was still pregnant with her, I hired an amazing Doula who helped me reach all the goals that I set forth for myself during the labor and birth of Callie Ann. I felt empowered after I delivered her. I felt that there wasn't anything that I couldn't achieve in life; I am forever changed by the experience of giving birth to Callie in such a positive way. I heard stories of other mother's experiences and how they felt defeated and displeased with the entire experience. I want to help women have a safe and positive experience like I had, because whatever experience you do have in childbirth will impact you for the rest of your life.

My Mission

My mission as a Birth Doula is simple. I set out to be a help to pregnant and laboring women in anyway that they wish. We meet before labor begins to discuss the wishes and goals of the mother in order to establish understanding on how I can better assist you when labor begins. I want to help them achieve any goals that they set for themselves.

Birth Doulas are educated in pain relief techniques and comfort measures, but Birth Doulas specialize in assisting laboring mothers in all areas of childbirth, natural, cesarean, medication free, and when mothers choose to receive medication.

Whether you choose to have a medicine free labor or not, I will support your decision and help you achieve what you set out to do. My goal for you isn't to go without medication, but for you to have a positive and safe labor that will impact your life for the better.
