About Jeannie

I am a DONA-certified doula with an endless love for growing families. I have been married to my husband, Wade, for 36 years and have two adult children living in Toronto. I have attended hundreds of births and love empowering women as mothers! I believe in the process of birth and encourage women to trust their inner strength. I work with couples to help them discover what their ideal birth looks like, and then to put the plan in place to help them achieve that ideal when possible.

Most important to me is that women feel that they are a part of the decision-making process surrounding their pregnancies and birth and that they know that they have options and choices available to them. I believe that there is no “right” way to birth and that each woman has their own individual needs. I feel privileged to be invited in to witness one of life’s most miraculous moments.

Besides being an agency owner, I am a DONA-Approved Birth Doula Trainer, Certified BRM® Pro, and Childbirth Educator.

When not attending a birth or teaching new doulas, you will find me making yummy sourdough treats, researching latest health trends and traveling the globe!
