The topic of babywearing may be new to you but it has been practiced for centuries by all parents throughout the world! From wrapping up your fresh newborn to strapping that busy toddler on your back, babywearing is meant to give you 1 on 1 bonding time and the ability to be hands-free! I truly believe being knowledgeable and creating a baby-wearing routine for you postpartum gives you time to take care of yourself and handle the never-ending tasks we're faced with as parents!
Benefits of Baby Wearing for Babe & Parents

* Encourages bonding with both parents

SERVICES
you deserve the birth of your dreams
Twinkle lights, autonomy over your body, precious moments captured, support navigating the medical birth world - your birth is unique just like your baby! Let's create this journey together!
I’m here for YOU! For the 2am searches, the 5am water breaking wake up call & the newborn poop fiascos. My goal is to make this transition in parenthood easier and then some could even say, enjoyable? I think preparation is everything when it comes to empowerment, we connect throughout your whole 10 month baby growing journey, but you’ll always get access to me and my support! Being a mom is hard, it brings up unexpected things and I think birth is the starter point of that! There is no redo. No take backsies. Your birth is 1 ( usually more haha ) days where you deserve welcoming, focused & comforting support!
I'm Here For You
"If you're on the fence about hiring a doula, hire Grace"
I am so grateful to have Grace as part of my pregnancy/birth/postpartum team. She has been an absolute joy to work with and I will be recommending her to all newly pregnant mamas I know. Prenatally she checked in with me often, provided education for birth prep for both myself and husband, and was a positive voice all throughout. I initially didn't think I needed a doula but I truly believe that having Grace with us for my home birth prevented an unplanned and unwanted hospital transfer. My labor progressed very quickly and, long story short, we weren't sure if our midwives would make it in time for delivery. Grace remained calm but also realistic about what was happening and held us together until our midwives arrived. Even through all of that chaos she managed to capture photos and video of labor and delivery that we will cherish forever.
Grace's support for both my husband and I during a very stressful situation made a huge difference in my birth experience and I am so so happy she was there. On top of that, she has been immensely helpful during this postpartum period dealing with jaundice, weight concerns, lack of sleep, etc as new parents. She is gentle and aware of how vulnerable this time is and I always feel better after talking to her.
If I could only choose 3 words to describe Grace I'd say calm, reassuring, and supportive. If you're on the fence about hiring a doula, hire Grace.
Hot tip: Put her service on your baby registry and recommend it as a group gift option

"I don't think I would have had the birth experience I did without her."
Grace was an awesome addition to my whole pregnancy, she was there every step of the way whenever I needed her. She continues to be very supportive afterwards as well always answering any questions I have. She was in the OR during my planned C-section and she made that experience wonderful by taking lots of pics, videos and even cutting my sons cord. She was there with him while they were assessing him making sure he was never alone which eased so much worry and anxiety. She was there for me during surgery as well calming me and letting me know everything that was going on. I would recommend her to everyone and anyone because she is definitely a must have for any birth experience. Not only is she wonderful at what she does she is just simply wonderful human being! I don’t think I would have had the birth experience I did without her involved.
-Haley (planned c-section)
"All I can say is wow!"
All I can say is wow, Grace truly is a trooper. I can't believe how she fell into my lap/birth plan but I honestly couldn't have had the unmedicated vaginal birth I've always imagined without her. Forever grateful she is phenomenal and passionate at what she does and it shows! If you ever want a doula who is affordable and all the things I mentioned above, hire Grace! 10/10

"I couldn't have accomplished my wish for a natural birth without her."
Hiring Grace as our doula was the smartest decision we made throughout my entire pregnancy. She helped me gain so much knowledge and confidence to have the HBAC I've dreamed after dealing with an unnecessary c section with my first. Having her there during labour and birth was perfect. I FaceTimed her saying I needed help and within a few minutes she was with me. She gave me some wonderful pressure point massages that helped me so much with pain management and her words of encouragement, focus, and perspective helped me get through some of the roughest patches of my labour and the ring of fire. I honestly feel like I couldn’t have accomplished my wish for a natural birth without her. Over all my labour turned out to be a really incredible & beautiful experience. Grace was there every step of the way to support my HBAC, not only me but my hubby was so grateful for her support. I can't thank her enough for the postpartum help, food drop off, and check ins.

"As soon as she entered my birth space I instantly felt more calm, comfortable, and in control."
I cannot say enough good things about Grace. She has the most calming, empathetic presence about her. As soon as she entered my birth space I instantly felt more calm, comfortable, and in control. She has also been the most amazing support in this postpartum period, answering any questions I have, helping me talk through my birth and process it all. She also took pictures during my labour which I didn’t have with my previous births so for that I am incredibly grateful. I’m so thankful I had her on my support team and she’ll definitely be the first person I call for any future pregnancies!
-Erica (hospital birth)
"Grace was a crucial part of our successful birth experience."
Grace is phenomenal at what she does. She made our birth experience that much better with her calm & reassuring presence, her encouragment and wealth of knowledge. She helped to guide and support not only me, but my partner during labor and birth making us feel comfortable and taken care of. Grace truly was a crucial part of our successful birth experience, & we could not have done it without her.
She gives her all to her clients, and her passion for her birth work is unmeasured.
If you are looking for someone to support you through the anxieties and unknowns of pregnancy, labor and postpartum then look no further. She is a godsend!
