Meet Lauren

Hey there, I'm Lauren, and I'm really glad you found your way here. I'm a birth doula, wife to an amazing husband, and mom to a busy little girl. My path to birth work started early; I've always loved caring for babies and helping new moms feel supported. What really sparked this passion was my own journey into motherhood. I was surrounded by incredible support, and it made all the difference. Now, I feel so drawn to offer the same steady, caring presence to other families during such a powerful season of life. With every birth I attend, my passion for this work only grows. It's an honor every time to be invited into such an intimate space and walk alongside families as they meet their babies. 

My Approach

My style as a doula is very down-to-earth. I'm calm, observant, and really tuned in to what each moment calls for. I have a strong ability to read the room, whether that means offering hands-on support like hip squeezes and counter pressure, or stepping back and giving space so you and your partner can be fully present together. I'm there for both of you, not just the birthing person, and I believe support should feel steady, respectful, and centered on your experience, not mine. My goal is to help you feel safe, seen, and fully supported in whatever way that looks like for you.

Training and Certifications

    When it comes to birth, I believe physical support can make a big difference. I'm always learning new ways to bring comfort and ease to the families I work with, and I love adding fresh tools to my doula toolkit.
