Meet The Doula

Hello and congratulations on your growing family!
I’m Beanie—a mom, sister, friend, and longtime caregiver. I was born and raised in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, where my journey in caring for little ones began over 20 years ago. From helping in my mom’s in-home daycare and looking after my younger sisters, to babysitting through my school years and working as a full-time nanny, supporting families has always been at the heart of what I do.

​

Like many doulas, my path became clear after the birth of my son in Oak Park, IL—an empowering experience made possible by the support of a compassionate doula and midwife team. But my transition into motherhood wasn’t without its struggles. I faced hyperemesis gravidarum, insomnia, anxiety, and postpartum depression. These experiences deepened my empathy and helped shape my passion for maternal mental health and whole-family support.

​

As a labor and postpartum doula, I bring calm, steady, and affirming care to each birth space I enter. Whether you’re welcoming your first baby or your fifth, preparing for a planned cesarean or a VBAC, my role is to support you—your choices, your strength, your journey.

​

When I'm not supporting families, I’m usually elbow-deep in a creative project. I love to crochet, knit, wood burn, needle felt, paint, whittle—you name it. I’m a proud hobby collector, a lover of Japanese food, and an herbalist-in-training through the Herbal Academy. Since joining the American Herbalists Guild in 2020, my home has become a haven for dried herbs, cozy crafts, and calming remedies. I also read a lot of fantasy books and always have recommendations (even if you didn’t ask!).

​

My family and I love camping, road trips, taco Tuesdays, Lord of the Rings marathons, and board game nights. We’ve built a life around connection, care, and creativity—values I carry into every birth space I enter.

I can’t wait to get to know you and walk alongside you during this incredible chapter of your life.

With warmth,
Beanie
