How my
doula journey began…

Like many, I tried out my fair share of assorted jobs before finding something that really aligned with me (Hello! I’ve worked as a butcher, a baker, a candlestick salesperson, just to name a few).

I’ve been passionate about social and reproductive justice, and community care for many years. I always felt drawn to working in spaces where these worlds intersected, but I didn’t know how for a long time.

Then I discovered the birthwork world!

Years ago, close friends hired a birth doula. At the time, I had no idea what a doula was. After hearing about the incredible care they received, I realized that this was exactly what I’d been looking for.

I’ve been a doula since 2018, and I absolutely LOVE it. Being invited into people’s lives and offering continuous support during vulnerable and big life moments is really special.

I firmly believe that everyone has the right to receive timely, meaningful care during their unique reproductive journeys.

Filling in the gaps of support is my jam!

Not everyone has a village that provides the right kind of support. Your in-laws might offer to come by in the early postpartum period, but will they focus on you and give you the support you really need? Or are they just coming to see the baby and then leave you feeling more drained?

We’ll work together to build your understanding and confidence, give space for rest and recovery, and provide the support that you actually want and deserve. I’m here for you, and with you.

I centre your needs first and am here as your helper - not another visitor you have to host in the early, vulnerable days of postpartum.

When I’m not doulaing (totally a word), I love hiking, reading, concerts, visiting cozy coffee shops, and eating a ridiculous amount of guacamole.

Together, we can help you thrive - not just survive. Let’s connect!

  • "We hired Keri for postpartum support when our second was born. She was exactly the help we needed. Her kind disposition and knowledge of babies and all things postpartum made me feel at ease during an exhausting and stressful time. I would highly recommend her to anyone looking for birth or postpartum support."

  • “If you’re looking for an excellent doula for prenatal, birth, and postpartum support, I highly recommend Keri. Her presence during my labour made my birth experience everything I had hoped for. Keri truly has a gift for making you feel safe, supported, and empowered throughout the entire experience. I can’t recommend her enough!!”

    — D, Birth Client

  • "Keri is an amazing doula. She knows where to jump in during birth, doing and saying exactly what I needed. In postpartum, she was so helpful talking through any issues I had, and I had no hesitation leaving my baby with her while I got some much needed rest. Thank you Keri for all of the love!"

  • "Keri's energy is so welcoming and soothing for the whole family. We hired her primarily for overnights, and some daytime hours too. Sleep is so hard to come by in early postpartum, and she put me at ease knowing our little one was in good hands while I got some shut eye. Waking up to fresh muffins and prepared meals was also a nice bonus! I would definitely recommend her."

  • "If you're looking for an excellent doula to support you through your postpartum journey, look no further! She's truly been our village and our biggest support, especially since our family lives abroad. She created a safe, judgment-free space for me to vent and talk. I always had warm tea in my cup and she made the most delicious energy balls. It’s the little details that mean the world when you're navigating new parenthood. You're the best, Keri! Thank you!"

    — K, Postpartum Client

  • "Keri was excellent during my labour experience. My partner, midwives and I only have good things to say about her. She helped immensely during my contractions and pushing by using different pain management techniques. I believe she played a crucial role in having the successful home birth that we wanted. Thank you Keri!"

    — S, Birth Client

  • "We have nothing but positive things to say about Keri and her support! I was a first time mom, I was nervous about birth, and I deal with a lot of anxiety. She connected us with resources, answered questions and made me and my husband feel very comfortable with birth as the weeks approached. During labour, she helped me work through the hardest moments with so much warmth. My husband and I have often said "I don't know what we would have done without Keri!" since then. I would absolutely recommend Keri to be part of your birth team!"
