Mom on a Mission
I am a birth doula in Vermont
and New Hampshire and look
forward to assisting you through
your labor and delivery.
Whether it be a c-section,
medicated or natural birth, I
will support you in whatever
decisions you make.

Doctors, midwives and nurses can not be with you at all times during your labor.
I will be with you the entire time and can offer you and your partner emotional,
physical, or informational support as needed. I hope you will allow me to help
make your birth experience a memorable one.

* length of labor by 25%
* oxytocin use by 40%
* Pain medication by 30%
* the need for forceps by 40%
* requests for epidurals by 60%."
