HOLDING THE VILLAGE
pregnancy  |  birth  |  postpartum

It is our goal to bring our combined knowledge, experience, and wisdom to resource you with the exact supports and presence that you need.  The foundation of our shared support experience is empowerment and empathy.

As mothers ourselves, we deeply understand the benefits of:

​

  • Continuous care through pregnancy, labour, and the postpartum period.

  • Easing the transition into parenthood.

  • Resourcing our clients with relevant and adequate information.

  • Making empowered choices for your family.

  • Being held in genuine relationships from your community.

  • Providing guidance, comfort, and a sense of confidence as you prepare to birth and enter your postpartum time.

 

We would love to chat, and learn about what you envision for support as you embark on this journey.

Our Vision

We offer the unique advantage of having two doulas to support you through pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Our collaborative approach means that you have access to double the support, knowledge, and expertise. We work together seamlessly to provide you with a personalized level of care that meets your specific needs and preferences. Working as a team means we are able to offer more time and presence to make sure you are getting the exact support you need.

Our Story

We met in community and connected in a doula mentorship program. It was during this opportunity that we found ourselves in alignment on our philosophy of birth and postpartum support. Along side each other, we grew our skill set, wisdom, and friendship.

Our shared inspiration and passion has been brought together to offer the best of both of ourselves to the families we support. Community brought us together and coffee has kept us close!

​

Our Community

We are proud to be a part of the birth and postpartum community here in Calgary, and we strive to build strong relationships with our clients, their families, and other perinatal professionals. We believe that by working together, we can create a more supportive and compassionate journey for families.

Let us help you gather your village.

WHY HIRE US AS A DOULA TEAM?

Serving families throughout their pregnancy journey is our heart work. We deeply value connection and strive to build safe, secure, and trusting relationships with the families we work with.  We know that navigating this journey takes time, empathy and delicate guidance. Our partnership allows us to be your village throughout your entire journey. Collectively, we offer:

​

Two unique backgrounds, knowledge and skillsets

In addition to pregnancy, birth and postpartum support, we are able to offer expertise on full spectrum doula services, lactation support, pre and post natal nutrition support, and transition for new siblings. Collectively, we have gathered hundreds of helpful tips and tricks to help families learn their babies and settle into their new routine.

​

Additional Opportunities to Learn and Grow

We meet with families twice during pregnancy and twice again in early postpartum. In our personal,  in-depth visits, it is our goal to prepare you and your family for everything you need to feel confident and empowered in pregnancy, birth, postpartum and caring for your baby/ies.

​

Certainty

Families can ensure that one of us will be by your side at your birth: a doula who you trust, have a relationship with and knows your specific wishes for your birth and postpartum experience.

​

Quality

Working in a partnership gives us the opportunity to dedicate time to our own personal well being. Having a doula who is mentally and emotionally present, well-slept and balanced when supporting your family is important. You deserve the very best version of us!
