I am a birth doula and I have two beautiful children of my own.

To me, pregnancy and childbirth is a gift to women, and I take great joy in nurturing women through this special time in their lives. I wish to see mothers-to-be well informed of their choices, emotionally and physically prepared for labour, and well supported in their transition into motherhood.

I come from India, and am fluent in Hindi. I also speak basic Spanish from my travels to Latin and South America. I am comfortable with people from all backgrounds, and open to all approaches to birthing. I bring my experience of natural medicine to my clients, and encourage them to honour the innate principles that govern their bodies and minds. Our society is ripe for a return to natural (even traditional) ways of living and healing, and I am proud to be part of that change.

Recently, a mama-to-be was reflecting on her ideas on birthing and she said to me 'Chickens lay eggs. Cows birth calves. Goats birth kids. Women birth babies'. I laughed out loud at the truth of that statement. To her, it was that simple! And I think it really can be.

My philosophy

I want to help you have an empowered birth.

I believe that when you combine the innate knowledge and strength of your body, with a well-informed mind, and a loving and trusting heart, you cannot help but have a beautifully empowered birthing experience.
