Philosophy

The childbearing year is a normal part of a woman’s life.  It is also a profound & powerful rite of passage–of body, mind and spirit. As your doula, I strive to assist you in giving birth in the way which facilitates your empowerment, healing and transformation. Your body is designed to birth your baby. By tuning into it’s wisdom and the messages you receive from your baby growing within, you are laying a foundation of trust from which to identify your deepest values, visualizing the birth you wish to have and nurturing the new parent you are becoming.

I feel Kristina has a deep understanding of the needs of pregnant women and assists in a very intuitive manner, with a calm and healing presence. Ultimately, she gave me confidence in my body’s own ability to give birth naturally, which, to me, is the greatest gift a doula could offer! -Jeanne
