Hi, Cate!

I am a midwife in training, and most of my experience lies in being a more active participant at births. I am, however, beginning to attend hospital and birth center births births as a doula.

I have recently opened Natural Family Doulas with a friend of mine, and I suppose that because of my lack of doula experience per se., I would be considered a doula in training. Because of this, my fee is somewhat lower than that of other doulas in the area, and it is negotiable at this point.

I would love to speak with you furher!
