Birth & Postpartum Doula
"My life is centered on a longing to help others. I believe being trusted with the care of a family, a mother, and a baby is a gift."
Ashley strongly believes in creating a positive space to plan for, and experience, birth. Her goal is to create a space of peace and confidence when it's time to meet your baby, and utilizing all of her life's knowledge and training to support your inherent wisdom to give birth.
She is known to be very empathetic. She LOVES naps and dark chocolate. She is a self-proclaimed introvert, despite what people think :).
As a wife and mother of 4: ages 20, 16, and 6, Ashley absolutely adores her kids. She was called to become a Doula after experiencing 3 traumatic births, postpartum depression, and the death of one of her twin babies, all with little to no support. Through therapy, she realized she wanted to help other families so they do not have to experience these types of difficult things alone.
Ashley has an active mind and is always learning - a "forever student". She has trouble sitting still and loves utilizing her many trainings and certifications to support her clients. She has a steady, calming demeanor, which allows her clients to relax in her presence and to feel held.
When not supporting families in birth and postpartum, you can find Ashley listening to her favorite audiobooks and podcasts, gardening, making art, and laughing at dad jokes!
