"I am forever grateful that Tara was a part of our birth experience. She guided me through the pain and the entire birth experience with so much confidence and grace. My husband and I have talked about the experience countless times, and both of us agree that Tara played a major role in the beautiful birth experience I had. I will forever be grateful to have had her by my side during our daughter’s birth. She will always hold a special place in one of our family's greatest life events. I can’t recommend her enough."

About Me ~ Why I Do This Work
From personalized doula care to birth education, and hands-on labour support, I help you protect your birth plan, stay centred, and advocate for what you need.
I became a doula because I know what it’s like to feel afraid and disconnected during birth. My own experience was highly medicalized, and fear pulled me away from my intuition, my body, my baby, and my husband.
Now, my purpose is clear—to bring safety, calm, and connection back into birth for women who are stressed, scared, or healing from past trauma.
