This sweet woman has a heart of gold. She would be a great help by your side during delivery. 🧡

✨DOULA SPOTLIGHT✨ Me? Can you spotlight yourself? Here goes! Most of you following my page are dear friends and family. You have given me so much love, celebration, and encouragement as I’ve started out on this new venture. You embody the kind of considerate support I want to offer to my clients. Thank you thank you.

I live in Columbia and my family loves so much about our town: Columbia College (go Cougars!), the trail systems, church community, farmer’s market — if you haven’t been to the winter market you totally should.

I’ve had two positive birth experiences myself, one in a hospital and one in my home. The settings were totally different, but both times I had care providers who listened to me and trusted my body. I had a solid support team to lean on. Education and resources empowered me to navigate the changes throughout pregnancy and labor.

The power of good support and education can change the trajectory of your pregnancy, labor, and journey through parenthood. I am so passionate about helping mothers find that confidence & peace. And to reassure them of their own inner strength, even when things don’t go according to our plans (aka always). I’m so excited to be a part of this work and so honored to be invited into such a special time in a family’s life.

To those I haven't met yet, I can't wait to on Jan. 20th. There’s still time to sign up here: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/doula-speed-dating-registration-752356026127?utm-campaign=social&utm-content=attendeeshare&utm-medium=discovery&utm-term=listing&utm-source=cp&aff=ebdsshcopyurl

I'm so thankful to be part of this team. This breast milk chiller is DINO-MITE!! If you are or know a breastfeeding mom, this is the perfect any time gift. If you are or know a w**e drinking mom (Hello! That's me!) this is the perfect gift because it chills a bottle of w**e perfectly in only 20 minutes!

There's a new doula in town! I am asked from time to time who I recommend for birthing support and I HIGHLY recommend Abby. She is a tender heart with a spirit of service. Every family would benefit from having a doula at their birth. You can expect less pain and medical intervention (scientifically proven), and a better mental health experience. Dads, you will be glad if you have the support of a doula to help you support your partner. https://www.facebook.com/profile.php?id=61550886494648

Hello all you wonderful, powerful women! I wanted to give an update. I recently took a job with Ceres Chill, they created the most amazing breast milk storage device you'll ever see! Check it out and let me know if you have any questions. Please note, THEY HAVE THEM AT WHALEY'S MOMMY & ME if you're local!

Don't let me fail to mention that you can chill an entire bottle of w**e in the main chamber in 20 minutes if you're finished with your breast milk storage days! This makes it a great gift for grandma too. If you know me, you know I love this perk.

I'm still seeing patients at Covenant so don't hesitate to call there to schedule an appointment if you need breastfeeding support.

Pump directly into Ceres Chill, which safely stores and chills your breastmilk for 20+ hours as you commute, work, hit the gym, or head out on a date after a long workday. No power cords or chargers! No disposable plastic!

This is a fantastic podcast about tongue tie. It's far more than a breastfeeding issue.
