A Bit About Me

My husband and I have raised our own five children and we've also enjoyed the addition of three daughter's in law to our family over the past few years. Our first grandchild arrived in 2020 with four more since then! I have personally experienced a wide range of birth and postpartum circumstances circumstances and supported dozens of families on this journey as well. These include breastfeeding a baby with a cleft palate as well as pumping and reestablishing milk supply after my own hospitalizations and surgical recoveries. I enjoy walking and yoga for health, exercise and destressing.  My family and I are huge fans of travel and learning from other cultures and countries. Along with my husband Charlie, I share my home with a scruffy dog named Lola, a calico cat and a handful of chickens in the backyard. I enjoy making bone broth with herbs from my garden, and bringing it, along with a homemade "LaborAide" electrolyte drink to nourish my clients in labor.  We are involved in a local Tulsa church. Faith and prayer are an essential part of my daily life, but I am eager to serve families of all (or no) faiths and backgrounds. These days you may find me volunteering with refugee families in our community through teaching Childbirth Education classes. I've completed workshops in Birth and Postpartum Doula Care through DONA International, and have received Birth Certification through Lifespan Doulas and Postpartum Certification through DONA. Additional certifications include Body Ready Method Professional and Childbirth Educator through International Childbirth Education Association. I am also trained in Rebozo techniques, Peanut Ball use and in basic life support (CPR) for adults, children and infants. In 2023 and 2025 I had the honor of being nominated as one of the Top 5 Doulas in the Tulsa area by the readers of Tulsa Kid’s Magazine. I look forward to assisting families as they navigate pregnancy, childbirth and the postpartum through evidence-based childbirth education classes and hands-on doula support.
