An Expert Doula Who’s Got Your Back

Holding Your Hands, Hips and Heart Through Every Step of the Way

Transform Your Birth Experience with a Doula

Childbirth is a profound journey, full of both joy and uncertainty, and every parent deserves to feel seen, supported, and empowered along the way. As a birth doula, my mission is to ensure that you are fully informed and present at every stage of the process—so that no question goes unanswered and no need goes unnoticed. Research shows that continuous doula support can reduce interventions, shorten labor, and increase satisfaction with your birth experience—and most importantly, it gives you the steady, trusted presence you deserve.

In the swirl of rotating staff, shift changes, and unexpected moments in the birth room, I am the constant you can rely on—someone who knows your preferences, understands your vision, and advocates for your voice. My role is to offer continuous, hands-on support, helping you feel grounded, informed, and cared for as labor unfolds.

Building a deep, trusting relationship with the families I support is at the heart of my work. We begin with a no-obligation call, so you can feel out our connection and decide if we’re the right fit. When it feels like a wholehearted yes, we’ll move intentionally through your fears, hopes, and goals for birth. Through prenatal visits, open communication, and guided preparation, you’ll feel supported, informed, and empowered—long before labor begins and all the way through your birth.

Your birth is your story, and having someone by your side who honors that story can transform the experience from overwhelming to deeply meaningful. If you’re ready to feel held, informed, and supported every step of the way

What Families Are Saying


Highly highly recommend! The level of physical and mental support Kat provided my partner and myself, I don’t know where to begin.. As a first time parent, she provided a lot of guidance throughout my pregnancy and helped my partner and I prepare for what to expect pregnancy and postpartum. Kat is amazing at what she does. She’s attentive, empathetic, and a joy to be around!”

-Parisa L.

Choosing Kat to be our birth doula was the easiest and best decision we made for the birth of our son! Kat is the most genuine, intuitive and educated doula I know. As a birth doula myself, hiring Kat as our doula was a very deliberate choice. Her ability to hold space during such a precious time helped make the experience so beautiful for us, even when I had to make decisions I otherwise would've been fearful of. The flow of birth comes so naturally to her. I look forward to giving birth again and having Kat as our doula in the future!

-Babs N.

“I was able to have such a beautiful birth experience thanks to Kat! She has such a warm and kind personality. She brought a calming energy to my birth which was just what I needed! I loved that she made sure to check in on me periodically during both my pregnancy and the postpartum period, in addition to being there for my labor.”

-Arizona B.

*I am listed on the Minnesota Department of Health Doula Registry, allowing reimbursement for doula support through state insurance. I’ve also successfully worked with private insurance providers like Carrot for doula reimbursement. I encourage you to check with your insurance provider to explore your coverage options for doula care!

— Have an HSA or FSA card? Check with your provider to see if doula care is covered.

— Baby shower crowdfunding! Give the gift of invaluable support by collecting funds from loved ones to apply toward your doula services.

— Reach out to me! I’m happy to make arrangements for special circumstances or connect you with the support you need at little or no cost.
