Why Birth With Peace?

It started off as a little inside-joke, a play on my last name. But, when I began thinking about my role as a doula, and about the goal I have for every family I support, it made sense:

Who wouldn’t want a sense of peace as they brought a child into the world?

The NICU Stay that Changed Everything

When my first child, Lainey, was born, I realized something that many new mothers do when they first become parents:

You don’t know what you don’t know.

I knew the basics of birth and had done my research on parenting. I had the right diapers, knew the sleep safety standards, and the age-appropriate milestones for my child as she grew. My goal was to have an unmedicated labor and delivery, which went beautifully. 

But shortly after, when my little girl was rushed to the NICU, there was a cascade of information and decisions I was unprepared for. 

I needed a voice. I needed a supportive community to speak on my behalf when I didn’t have the mental or emotional strength to do it myself.

I knew, even then, that women needed support and education in every aspect of new motherhood. The unrealistic expectations for mothers in the 21st century to do everything from birth to breastfeeding without a tribe surrounding them is damaging.

So, when my sister-in-law and girlfriends I love dearly started having children themselves, I knew I wanted to coach them in ways I hadn’t been.

I began working with friends and family members, supporting them on their journeys to new parenthood. Through my passion for supporting mothers and my educational background, I discovered a fresh calling on my life that I enjoy leaning into every day.

Now, as a wife and mother of three, there’s nothing more rewarding than helping other mothers start and transition into the ever-evolving world of parenting with a strong foothold.

It’s truly a joy to see my passion for teaching and the love I have for growing families come together through Birth With Peace.
