Calming Tides Doula

10/02/2026

✨ Having a baby in 2027? You deserve to feel supported long before the first contraction.

Someone to ask the questions you forgot at your appointment. Someone to talk through your hopes, worries, and “what ifs.” Someone who knows you and your preferences, helps you understand your options, and supports you when plans change.

Whether you’re planning an epidural, hoping for an unmedicated birth, preparing for a cesarean, or still figuring out what feels right—you deserve care, encouragement, and a steady presence beside you.

I’m booking families with 2027 due dates! If you’ve been thinking about doula support, let’s connect and see whether we're a good fit.

🎉🎉🎉 Binder building dance party 🎉🎉🎉

Putting these together while rocking out to my favorite bands newest release 🎵🎶

✨️It can all be done through the power of caffeine ✨️

PS. 12 feels like too many to do at once... but future me will thank me for it!

That time again... time to build more binders. This here is the paper for 12 binders. Left side is what goes straight into the binders and the right side is what we go over in our visits. The printing process can take weeks, getting done in between everything else I have to do. I started printing these on April 3rd- it felt like a slower way to jump back into work after an extended vacation.

Now... who wants to help me actually put all of these pages in the binders??? 😬😫🤣

Goal setting while waiting on a baby! Maybe being busy with this will encourage this baby to want to interupt my plans, and stop the whole back and forth game she's been playing with her mom. Maybe 😉

I have a lot of ideas on how to make 2026 even better than 2025 was... so I better get to work!

Can you believe it's almost the new year?!?! Wow. My calendar is filling up quick so if you are pregnant and are looking for a doula let's chat now!

🌟New Year's Resolution🌟
To stop over extending myself and that means doula-ing as well. Once the calendar is filled I won't be adding just one more" family. (Pretty sure that news makes my back up doula very happy 🤣🤣🤣)

What's your resolution this year???

Long birth recovery:
Two long births this week with families who creeped well past their "due" dates. I try to remember to take care of me while I take care of them, but I'd be lying if I said I did a good job with hydration. I mean, who wants to leave the room to p*e every hr? Not me 🤷‍♀️🤣.
So I make up for it in the days after. Not all the choices I make are for peak rehydration- clearly... but I'm definitely having the coffee, and that soda is absolutely a lovely treat for my taste buds. I will feel better by tomorrow and ready to go at it all again when needed.
