Facing FearsYou are stronger than you know.

In the days and hours leading up to birth many women experience an emotional roller coaster regarding what will happen during labor and birth. Having a child, especially the first one can mean facing a lot of unknowns. It can bring up fears that you didn’t know you had. It can dig up fears that you had long since forgotten.

When heading to a recent birth I had an epiphany: the fears that a woman has controlling her can control the progress and journey that her birth takes her on. It can build her up and make her stronger, or it can challenge her, hold her back and make her feel weaker than she is.



expansionAt Kooshlie Care Doula Service I am excited to be expanding my services. I have more availability to serve your family during labor and birth support, and postpartum care.

I am a certified birth doula through DONA international, and I am a trained postpartum doula awaiting certification. I have been working as a part-time doula, pursuing my passion over the last three years. This year I am stepping out and going into this as a full-time doula. My passion is supporting families as they grow.

As your birth doula, I confidently bring laughter, comfort and knowledge into your labor and birth journey. Depending on where you are in your journey I will meet with you and your support team in person 1-3 times prior to your labor beginning.



Changing timesI am proud to share that starting today I am fully opening my doors. I am stepping out on faith and diving in full-time into supporting families welcoming new members.

I firmly believe that God has given me a passion for this work.

Thank-you for supporting me! I love you all!



bringing baby homeMost parents don’t think about the daunting task of bringing their new baby home. Here are a few thoughts on the must haves prior your little ones arrival.

1. Carseat, with the base safely installed in the car. Be careful about the purchase of the car seat, not all are created equal. You don’t have to spend an arm and a leg, however you should read reviews before purchasing the lowest price.

2. Is there food at home? Even if you have a food train set up you may or may not have all three meals each day, and you may want to eat something other than casserole for your afternoon snack. Consider both you and your partner and make sure you have a few of your favorites tucked away.
