Birth and Postpartum Doula

About Me

IHi, I’m Ann! I'm a certified birth and postpartum doula, childbirth educator, and mother of three with 8 years of experience supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum transition.

Over the past 8 years, I have had the honor of walking alongside families through a variety of birth experiences, including hospital births, birth center births, and home births. My passion is helping parents feel informed, confident, and empowered as they prepare for one of life’s most transformative moments.

Born and raised in Florida, my family and I made Georgia home in 2022. As a wife of ten years and a mother of three children (ages 8, 4, and 1), I understand firsthand the emotions, questions, and changes that come with growing a family. My own journey through motherhood has deepened my desire to provide compassionate, knowledgeable support to other families during these sacred seasons.

I completed my postpartum doula training in 2018 and my birth doula training in January 2019 through DONA International. I became DONA International certified in July 2020 and continue to uphold the highest standards of professional and evidence-based support.

I am also a certified childbirth educator through Birthworker.com, and I am CPR, AED, and First Aid certified through the American Red Cross. I have also completed Lactation Management Training through Lactation Education Resources. This additional education allows me to provide families with breastfeeding knowledge and connect them with trusted local lactation consultants when more specialized support is needed.

I serve families within a one-hour radius of Lawrenceville, Georgia, throughout the greater Atlanta area. Whether you are planning a hospital birth, birth center experience, or home birth, my goal is to help you feel prepared, supported, and confident in your choices.

My approach is rooted in education, encouragement, and honoring each family’s unique values and birth preferences. It is my privilege to create a calm, supportive environment where families feel empowered as they welcome their babies and step into parenthood.

I would be honored to walk alongside you during this transformative season and look forward to supporting you as you prepare to welcome your baby and begin this incredible journey into parenthood.

    “As a new doula I’ve been feeling pretty overwhelmed and insecure about a lot of things pertaining to doula work. After spending some time chatting with Ann, I have a whole new confidence. She answered all my questions, gave me great advice, and then just encouraged me in my calling. She reminded me of my worth and was just an all together friendly person. Having Ann mentor me was such a wise decision I made in investing in my new business and adventure as a birth doula. I look forward to setting up more time with her in the future.”

  • Amanda, Postpartum Client. 

    "I was a first time mom, far away from family and close friends having recently moved to the Sarasota area and completely overwhelmed in the "Fourth Trimester." Ann's kind and personable demeanor put me at ease right away. I finally felt like I could take a second and breathe knowing she was there to help us. 

    Ann always left our home looking better than when she came, whether helping with Rowyn's laundry or tidying 

    the kitchen, she was always helping in ways we didn't expect, but greatly appreciated. Ann was the first person, other than my mom, I felt comfortable leaving my daughter with while I slept. Knowing she was also a mom and "got it" was very helpful for me to feel confident that she would care for my baby as I would.

    Ann is very intuitive and great at anticipating your family's needs. I would recommend her to any family needing postpartum support." 

  • Chris, Birth Client

    "My wife and I used Ann’s services for our first child, born 6 weeks ago on December 8th. When my wife first approached with the idea of using a doula, I was a little skeptical to be honest but wanted to do whatever made my wife as comfortable as possible.

    To say I was pleasantly surprised would be a massive understatement. She made our day that much more special and having that extra support system was instrumental in my wife having such a smooth delivery. Ann showed up at the hospital at 3:00 AM when my wife started labor and stayed with us until 9:00 PM that night when our baby girl arrived. She made our day that much more special and having that extra support system was instrumental in my wife having such a smooth delivery.

    The amount of support, help and tips during labor and delivery were invaluable and made our experience that much better. Anybody considering a doula, I highly recommend using Ann and her services. She made our day that much more special and having that extra support system was instrumental in my wife having such a smooth delivery. And to all those soon to be dads out there, listen to your partners and use a doula!!!“
