Hi. I’m not your typical doula.
I know a lot about birth. I also know that my opinions about how you should give birth don't matter nearly as much as yours.
I've spent over 16 years in birth rooms with people who like to have a plan, prefer to know what's happening, and tend to think three steps ahead.
If uncertainty makes you uncomfortable, we're probably going to get along very well. I'm good at anticipating what you need, asking the right questions, and slowing things down when everything starts moving a little too fast.
You don't have to suddenly become someone who loves the unknown just because you're having a baby.
I’m Annie.
