Background, Experience & Training:
I became a massage therapist in 2001, with a major focus on pre-natal massage, labor & delivery massage, and infant massage education. I am currently pursuing an Associates degree in Early Childhood Education and a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. I am also a teacher at Destiny Christian Preschool in Rocklin, specializing in infants and toddlers. I realized I had a passion for infants while researching the effects of infant massage on premature, drug exposed, or otherwise less healthy infants. This spurred on my desire to become an infant massage educator, as well as to learn every way possible to help the mother and infant thrive. In 2007, I learned about DONA international (an international doula accreditation board) and about the job of a doula. I became instantly driven to learn everything I could about becoming a doula and helping women in need.
I have been practicing as a doula since 2008, receiving my formal training in 2009, and am currently in the DONA certification process. I love to care for and help women and their families during this important and special time in their lives, and look forward to sharing your pregnancy and childbirth with you!
Special Note:
Congratulations on your pregnancy!
“Children are a gift from the Lord; they are a reward from him.” Psalm 127:3
I look forward to meeting with you and helping you to have the pregnancy and childbirth experience you desire.
