Meredith (she/her)

Birth + postpartum doula

Meredith is a certified birth doula, certified women’s hormone specialist, cycle + fertility coach, menstruation educator, wife and mother to three amazing kids, ages 7, 5 and 3. She loves everything about the menstrual cycle – hormones, menstruation, fertility, birth, postpartum, and menopause. She loves teaching women (and families) how to use their cycle to balance their lives (and their hormones) and accomplish their goals for growing their family, or not. 

But birth has a special place in Meredith’s heart. She came to birth work on a Thursday afternoon driving home from her Human Resources job. She was complaining about her job to her sister and her response was, “you should go be a doula.” What’s a doula? After she explained what a doula is, a voice inside Meredith said, “I was born to do that.” She was in doula training the next week and now (8 years and 65+ births later) she has never looked back. She loves being in the birth space and witnessing the growth and transformation of families as they move through the birth process.

Meredith excels at supporting families through natural/unmedicated birth both in and out of the hospital, and a lot of her clients have great results from her support in delaying medication so that it supports their labor rather than hinders it. The most important thing is that her clients feel empowered every step of the way, that's her goal as a doula. She is passionate about families knowing their options, preparing well, and tapping into the spiritual nature of the birth process to create an empowering experience.
