Birth Doula & Film Photographer | Northern Coloradobirth work is soul work, we were never meant to do it alone
the most transformative event in your life—ushered in with care and reverence
seen, held, empowered
I believe in the power of Her (you).
there is woven into every woman a deep knowing, an intrinsic power—you have everything you need, already inside you, to birth your baby. this belief is the core of my doula care. everything I do to support you as your doula will be to nourish your own body’s remembrance that it already knows exactly what to do.
seen, held, empowered is what you can expect to feel from our journey together. you deserve it. from the moment we learn that life grows inside us, to that final breath that births our babies earth-side, women have historically & intuitively sought out sisterhood to walk that journey alongside them.
support looks like...
two in-depth prenatal visits. this is where we birth plan, walk through labor coping skills, support your growing baby & body by spinning babies led education, & overall, get to know one another and develop a connection based in trust, safety, and trauma-informed care.
as a certified reiki practitioner, you'll have access to one-on-one sessions, typically between 2-5. reiki is the energetic practice of bringing into balance the mind/body connection. often done in the weeks leading up to birth, reiki is a tool to relax and calm the mind, center the body, and release any energetic blocks in preparation for baby.
unlimited access to my support via email, call, or text throughout the duration of pregnancy
24/7 on-call support beginning at 37 weeks gestation
physical, emotional support, advocacy, & education during labor & delivery. continual support during the immediate postpartum period until you and baby are settled.
complete labor, birth, & immediate postpartum film photography coverage.

a little bit about meto hold a space created from love—whether it's the birth room or a messy living room, is the greatest honor. one I don't take lightly.
LOVE NOTESit's beyond difficult to articulate everything kierstyn did for us. having a dear friend show up to lovingly rub oil on my feet, speak calm words of encouragement, and ensure my husband was taking care of himself so he could show up for me in the most intense experience of my life still brings tears to my eyes.
this woman literally caught my vomit, spoon fed me, and was an emotional rock for us throughout the whole process. i didn't know just how important it was going be to have the support and advocacy of another woman in my birth space until we were in it. and if you live close by, you're in luck that the best of the best in my humble opinion is right here.
