Why I became a Massage Therapist and Doula

I decided that I wanted to become a Massage Therapist because I wanted to help people. I am a very caring and sensitive person. I wanted to help improve people's lives. Being a Massage Therapist I have to take continued education courses. This is what lead me to becoming a Doula. I was able to get through having my own children through massage and relaxation. Because of my personality someone suggested that I would be good at being a Doula as well. I have enjoyed my experiences so far and look forward to many more to come. It is such an amazing and rewarding experience to be there for mom, dad, and baby to help them through these first steps of their new family.

My goal as a Doula is to help the mom feel prepared mentally for what to expect out of labor and delivery, give mom's coach the support that they need, provide information, provide love and support during the labor and delivery, and help mom feel like she has accomplished all that she wanted in her labor and delivery experience!
