ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Jess!

The role of doula called to me out of my love for empowering the strength of women🧡 Women have this innate ability to achieve the incredible [growing humans!] so why not harness that by cultivating intuition - combined with a little bit of education, confidence and trust - and birth the way you want to?! I currently provide support in DC and Northern Virginia areas.

I am a professional certification candidate via DONA International’s birth doula program. DONA is the leader in evidence-based doula training, certification, and continuing education, so you’re in great hands! I am also a Pure Barre instructor of nearly a decade, a military spouse and I have a Bachelor’s degree in Public Health. In addition to being well-versed in physical/emotional comfort measures and labor-progressive positioning, I am certified in use of the peanut ball for labor and proficient in HypnoBirthing, The Mongan Method. Assistance in preliminary lactation and Bengkung belly binding for postpartum recovery are also part of my offering. I would be honored to assist you in your birth journey✨
