My story

 

Hey there, I’m Emma!

I’m a DONA-trained Birth and Postpartum Doula and a registered Hypno-Doula with Hypnobabies. My love for all things pregnancy, childbirth, lactation and the journey into motherhood has been with me for as long as I can remember. I truly believe that bringing a new life into the world and stepping into parenthood is one of the most profound transitions we can experience—it deserves to be honored, nurtured, and celebrated. My own journey into motherhood sparked a deep passion for supporting others on this path. I’m here to ensure that every family I work with feels a genuine blend of knowledge, support, and personal connection.

I’m a wife and mom of two, based in West Deptford, NJ, and my heart is in helping mothers and families navigate the perinatal period. I know from personal experience just how transformative this time can be. Unfortunately, many families don’t have the support or information they need to make empowered decisions, and I’m committed to being that change in my community. For me, becoming a mother is a uniquely special experience. My goal as a doula is to help women and families have a positive, empowered birth and postpartum experience—one that is fully their own. I want every family to feel whole and confident, no matter their specific birth choices.

I would consider myself a holistic minded doula, but I also know and support individuals unique medical choices and needs. I am familiar with induction births and can confidently be your guide through the process. I support and attend all births, whether they are in the hospital, birth center or home births! 

I also have a deep passion for lactation support, having faced my own challenges and overcoming them with the right guidance and encouragement. I know how much nursing (when chosen) can impact overall postpartum wellness, and I am dedicated to helping others reach their breastfeeding goals. My personal experience gives me a unique perspective and confidence in this area, and I’m here to support each family in their journey.

When choosing me as your Birth and/or your Postpartum Doula, you are a choosing a calm, confident, and dedicated companion for your unique experience. I am a strong believer in providing you with the education you need to make informed and empowered choices to reach your birth and /or postpartum desires.

I am honored to be welcomed into each and every intimate birth and postpartum space; it is truly the most special privilege to witness the strength, love, and transformation that unfolds as new life is brought into the world and families are born. Always remember, you have the innate power and wisdom within you to bring your baby from womb to world. Trust in your body, your instincts, and the incredible journey of birth—because you are capable, and you are strong. 

In my free time, you’ll find me spending time with my family, baking sourdough, cooking nutritious meals, sipping on a good cup of coffee, followed by coconut water, outside in the sun, or reading birth books!
