BIRTHKEEPING PARTNERS

BirthkeeperS I COULD WORK WITH

I am open to have a conversation and work with another doula / birthkeeper if you feel the call of being supported by someone else and me.


Jimena and Naomi are extremely knowledgable on all areas surrounding birth and are very passionate about helping women achieve the birth they desire. During my birth they were very supportive, understanding and knowledgable and I know I could not have done it without them! Thank you,
— Jade
