What do you do?
I am a birth doula, birth photographer and founder of C & The Moon. As a birth doula I support parents through pregnancy and birth, both at home and in the hospital. Unfortunately, in the time of COVID-19, doulas are not able to be in the hospitals which has led me to working virtually with my hospital birth clients.
What do you like most about your work?
Getting to witness the strength, love and transformation that takes place as people embark on the journey of parenthood.
What advice would you give expecting mothers?
"Learn as much as you can about your options and be prepared to advocate for yourself. If possible hire a doula to help you prepare and support you through the process...even if it has to be virtually."
What’s up next for you?
I am working on a Virtual Prenatal Women's Circle launching soon!
Lifegoals?
Good Health.
