what is your doula style?
Childbirth is supernaturally natural. It is euphoric, yet so real and raw. It is a self-transformative life changing experience from the inside out. There is life in its very essence and origin. Therefore, it must be kept sacred for both mother, child, and loved ones. Postpartum is a time of transformation as well as transition. It should also be kept sacred for the mother, baby, and family. Nurturing and caring for the new mother is essential to the transformative healing and becoming process. Extra love, support, and care through education, emotional guidance, instilling hope, serving hot meals and caring for the newborn, are means to establishing this goal.
why did you become a doula?
I became a doula because I wanted to be apart of the miracle that birth is while supporting women through one of the most transformative events of their lives. I become a postpartum doula because I saw such a need for this kind of support while I was preparing for my own birth and postpartum journey. So much care, love, and support is needed during birth and postpartum. I love supporting families through this beautiful time.
favorite types of births to support?
Home birth and vbac clients are my absolute favorite.

I loved my experience. It was a calm atmosphere which Cherilynn helped foster. She was very respectful of my space while also knowing when to step in and offer water, encouragement or suggestions. She was super confident and professional
