doula work
"Sammy provided postpartum doula services to our family 2.5 weeks after birth. Some of the areas she helped with were making dinner, tidying the kitchen, watching our toddler, changing diapers, assisting with feedings, even founding laundry. Sammy also gave my husband and I an afternoon off and watched both our two year old and newborn. This was a great break allowing us some time away without the kids. However, I have to say, the most valuable part of her services was having a sounding board and someone to talk to other than the baby. This can be very helpful in the weeks after birth when you need adult interaction. I would recommend Sammy to anyone needing postpartum care!"

What is a doula?
A doula is a support person and a listener through your reproductive journey. My job is to help you feel safe, supported, respected, and heard. My job is to ensure that you understand all of your options throughout your experience so that you can make choices that feel best for you. A doula advocates without judgement.
I personally bring yoga + mindfulness practices into my doula services. A lot of emotions occur during any sort of reproductive journey. You deserve to find space to connect to yourself through decision making through meditation, breath work and mindful movement.
