Perinatal Experience
WHAT I DO
Bringing a new life into the world is a profound journey—one that deserves unwavering support. At The Top Knot Doula, I provide personalized, evidence-based care to help you feel informed, empowered, and nurtured every step of the way.
As new parents, we simply cannot know what exactly is waiting for us on the other side of the parenting initiation that is birth. But we can at least be in community throughout the journey, and witness each other through it all. Each layer of the The Top Knot Doula services is designed to do exactly that, allowing you to ease into this new chapter of life with support that adapts to your family’s needs.
