I specialize working with pregnant people who want to feel empowered during birth. I provide the education, support, and the knowledge they need to advocate for the birth they desire.
I have supported many families through all different types of birth in most of our local hospitals; medicated, unmedicated, inductions, cesareans as well as home births.
My mission:
To empower families to navigate the unknown in labor and birth and to support them through this life changing event.

Hi! I’m Caroline
I immediately thought, "That’s me!" when I first learned what the word "doula" meant. I am honored to witness bringing the incredible gift of life into this world. I am truly humbled and enjoy working with families that trust me to support them in this journey.
I have supported all types of families in all birthing spaces with many different individual birth goals. I provide a calm environment so you can focus on the incredible act of labor. I offer evidence-based information so you can make the right decision that’s right for you. I fully support families, regardless of their outcome of their birth. If your family experiences perinatal loss, know that I will be by your side through it all.

"Caroline was terrific leading up to birth, during birth, and after. Her home visits and informational sessions prepared us well for the actual day. During labor, the encouragement, information, and comfort measures she provided were invaluable. As my wife was laboring, I distinctly remember thinking to myself how glad I was to have Caroline there with us...
If we have any more babies in the future, we know one thing for sure: we will hire Caroline again."

"Caroline was my doula for my 2nd baby. She was amazing throughout my pregnancy and delivery day. She was always just a phone call or text away. She helped make my birth experience amazing and helped me achieve the perfect VBAC. My family and I are so grateful for all her help."
