I am a trained doula and midwifery apprentice dedicated to supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. I have supported hundreds of births in homes, birth centers, and hospitals, offering steady, informed, and compassionate care throughout each stage of the journey.

My work is rooted in holistic wellness and shaped by hands-on experience, including assisting a midwife in the volcanic mountains of Guatemala. That time deepened my understanding of physiological birth, traditional practices, and the importance of honoring birth as both a clinical and sacred transition. It continues to inform the way I support families with respect, presence, and trust in the body’s wisdom.

I provide emotional support, physical comfort measures, and evidence-based information so families can make empowered decisions with confidence. I also help create a grounded and calm environment where women feel safe, heard, and deeply supported.

As a mother of two, I bring lived experience and expanded empathy to my work. My role is to walk alongside families with steadiness and care as they welcome new life honoring their choices, their culture, and their unique birth story.

Testimonials

“Thank you Stephanie! We were thrilled with A., again. She really eased my mind leading up to the birth and helped me feel a sense of agency in my decision-making. She was a champ during the very fast birth and has already been by to check on us. I would recommend her to anyone!”
