Hi I've recently moved to the Sydney Metro area from a smaller city in Southern Ontario. I am a mother of 5 and have had a variety of birthing experiences from home birth to emergency pre-term belly birth. I enjoy helping birthing persons achieving their birthing goals. I am also a postpartum belly binder and knowledgeable in babywearing.

Ashley (she/her) is a wife, mama to 5 children, a trained full-spectrum doula who has lived in Cape Breton most of her life. She loves coffee, cooking, creating, learning, good company & laughter.
Her own birthing experiences fueled her passion for birthwork, after which, she felt a pull toward a movement that helped ensure birthing folk felt educated and empowered to make informed decisions about their birth as well as felt supported throughout the postpartum period. She also volunteers through the province's VDP program.
She has over a decade of experience with parenting, formula feeding, breastfeeding, and baby wearing. She finds fulfillment in using the skills she has learned throughout her life and training to support the families in her community.

My name is Joannie and I am a birth keeper and rebozo practitionner. I am what we call a doula; also know as a companion at birth.
I am here to accompany you through your parenting journey, with all my comforting support, my warm presence and my unshakeable confidence. I am convinced that people who give birth are by nature perfect for doing it, for giving it.
I am here to offer you a real support through your life passages – from pregnancy to birth, postpartum to parenting challenges, from perinatal mourning to abortion. I also aid in the birth of major life projects or their failures (biological or not, parenting can be seen in many different levels !) Therefore, it is with all my gentleness, my constant trust and my warm kindness that I accompany you by collaborating with you towards what fascinates me the most : loving life ! No matter where you find yourself, I welcome you, without judgment and with great esteem. It is an honor for me to walk with you in this path intended for you.

I'm Sarah, and my role is to support your parenting journey before, during, and after this new ‘beautiful life’ changes yours. In between the uninformed birth of my daughter in 2014 and the empowering birth of my son in 2017, I knew there had to be a better way to give birth. For me, educative support through evidence-based prenatal classes was the missing key. I took my experience as a teacher in a new direction, first as a childbirth educator, then a birth doula, and finally an infant massage instructor. I help my families to feel confident in their choices and prepared to write their own unique birth stories.
