My favorite thing about being a doula is:

The look of relief on the face of a parent after a good nights’ sleep.

Candace, Salt Lake City postpartum doula + Lactation Consultant (IBCLC)

Hi there, I'm Candace! I'm a Certified Postpartum Doula and an IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) and I've worked with birthing families for 19+ years. I've been fascinated by all things pregnancy and birth since I was a teenager when I discovered Ina May Gaskin’s book Spiritual Midwifery. Ever since then, I knew I would work with birthing families.

After having my own 4 children and experiencing traumatic birth experiences and difficult postpartum periods, my work has since evolved into helping others to have the support they need in their journeys as parents. I am always working on learning more so that I can better support the families I serve.

In addition to my doula work, I am a staff lactation consultant at Lone Peak Hospital. I also provide home lactation visits, helping new parents get their breastfeeding journey started with ease and support.

When I’m not busy with birth work, you can find me with my kids enjoying the beautiful mountains of Utah, camping, hiking, snowboarding, paddle boarding and rock climbing.
