About
My name is Katie and I'm a mom of 4. I moved to Richmond in 2017 with my husband. I'm originally from Virginia Beach. I became interested in birth after having 4 of my own - each very different - labor and deliveries. With each one, I learned so much more than before. I constantly thought to myself, "Why isn't all of this information provided to pregnant people at any point through pregnancy?" - an area that was seriously lacking. I am passionate about everyone receiving complete and comprehensive care throughout pregnancy.
.I love to support families and am delighted to get to know you

FAQ
What is a Doula?
A doula is a professional birth support person. Think of a doula as a nurturing guide for parents, who can provide emotional and physical support during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum. They’re there to answer questions, offer coping techniques, and ensure that parents empowered and cared for every step of way.
