A guide, wherever you are.
Not every mother needs a doula in the birth room. Some want a steady, knowledgeable voice through pregnancy and the first weeks home. Wherever you live, I can be that voice: by video, by phone and by text.
Everything but the birth room.
Face to face, by video
We meet through your pregnancy and work through The Matrescence Journey together: your birth plan, comfort techniques for you and your partner, the questions to bring your provider, and preparing for the forty days.
Call or text between visits
Questions don't wait for appointments. You can call or text me when something comes up, big or small, so you're never left wondering on your own.
All of my materials
The Matrescence Journey, its partner guide, and every handout and resource I share with the families I attend in person.
After your birth
A video check-in to hear your birth story and talk through feeding, healing and rest, with referrals to people near you when you need hands-on help.
Two ways to have me beside you.

Who it's made for.
Virtual guidance is education and support. It isn't medical care, and I won't be physically present at your birth.
