dare alla luce doula

Details

I’m Katharine and I’m the mother of two teenaged boys. I delivered both naturally, thanks to the help of amazing caregivers. I chose to become a birth doula based on my love of babies and women and the miracle of the birthing process. I believe that women are their own best experts and have instinctual knowledge of their babies and their bodies. Birth is the most intimate, personal experience a woman can go through, and I hope that through information and support, I can help it be a positive and empowering experience as well. Although I have birth preferences for myself, I will never push an agenda with you. I will support you and your choice of birth, at the hospital, birthing center, or your home. I would be honored to be a part of your sacred experience. I am a member of DASC (Doulas of Southern California) and awaiting certification with DONA (Doulas of North America).
