Owner of With Her KC LLC. I have been serving families since 2023 and am a Certified Birth Doula through Global Education of The Midwife. I’m mom to my beautiful daughter, Penny, who was born peacefully at home, and wife to my wildly supportive husband, Pierce. I am a follower of Jesus and believe life begins at conception. I’m passionate about sharing my knowledge of birth and bringing peace to new mothers and fathers in this tender season. I am always left in awe of women’s phenomenal strength to birth their babies when they are surrounded by love and feel safe to fully surrender. What a joy that I get to walk new parents through the experience of welcoming a new son or daughter. I've supported many families in both hospital and home birth settings. I work to be a compassionate, peaceful, and strong advocate for natural, physiological labor and birth. I LOVE when Dad wants to be hands-on and I get to coach new fathers on how to love on their wives in meaningful ways through labor. I am NRP certified and am currently going through StillBirthday's Bereavement doula course. I am deeply committed to helping families feel informed, calm, and confident as they welcome their babies into their arms.
