Nurse expertise meets dedicated doula care
Welcome to Labor & Love Doula Co in Bellefonte, Pennsylvania. I combine thirteen years of labor, delivery, and postpartum nursing insight with compassionate doula support to nurture, inform, and empower your growing family.
From bedside nurse to personal advocate
For 13 years, I worked as a registered nurse specializing in labor and delivery and mom-baby care, including a decade as a travel nurse in hospitals across the country. While clinical care was essential, I realized my true passion was building deeper, lasting relationships with families. As your doula, I dedicate my full attention to you—ensuring you feel heard, supported, and confident at every step of your journey.
Clinical insight with a calming presence
My medical background gives me deep understanding of the birth process, hospital protocols, and postpartum recovery. I use this expertise not to direct your birth, but to educate and empower you. I offer a steady, calming presence in the birth room so you can navigate decisions with clarity, comfort, and peace of mind.
An honor to be part of your story
Every family and every birth is unique. Whether preparing for labor or settling into the early postpartum weeks at home, my goal is to protect your space and honor your choices. It would truly be an honor to walk alongside you during one of the most transformative chapters of your life.
"Having a doula who is also an experienced labor and delivery nurse gave us unmatched peace of mind. Her calm guidance and advocacy transformed our birth experience into something truly empowering."
A grateful Bellefonte family
