Support in Pregnancy, Birth and Postpartum
About Me
Niagara & Hamilton Based Birth & Postpartum Doula
A Little About Katie
As a birth and postpartum doula, I’m passionate about honouring the birth experience and advocating for families to make informed choices that feel right for them.
I provide a calm, grounding presence and offer compassionate, inclusive care that is centered on your values and needs. My goal is to help you feel confident, supported, and empowered throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period.
When I’m not working with families, you’ll usually find me at home in Grimsby, Ontario with my partner, our three kids, and two dogs - embracing the beautiful chaos of family life. I love practicing yoga, kitchen dance parties and you can usually spot me in the stands as that overly enthusiastic mom cheering way too loudly at my kids’ sports games.
Supporting Your Journey
Every pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey is unique. I focus on creating a space where you feel seen, heard, and respected, offering steady guidance, practical help, and gentle advocacy tailored to your needs.
Research shows that doula care is associated with more positive birth outcomes, including shorter labors, fewer interventions, and greater satisfaction with the birth experience. My approach combines this evidence with compassionate, individualized support, so you can feel informed, confident, and empowered in every decision you make.
Postpartum support is an equally important part of the journey. I provide hands-on newborn care, guidance on feeding and soothing, and practical help that allows you to rest and recover. From overnight support to navigating the challenges of the early weeks, my goal is to help you feel supported, less overwhelmed, and more connected to your baby and your own well-being.
