My Method
As a birth worker, I guide you by using methods of self-exploration and the integration of natural, mental, physical, and spiritual support in order to enhance your experience through the different phases of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. As your personal doula, I bring my many years of experience, intuition, and communing with nature to successfully assist you in creating a loving, safe, and gentle space that is catered to your own specific needs and unique situation. It is my life’s calling to do this work, and it is with great inspiration and love that I provide the best care possible, utilizing the most effective techniques known today.
About Me
I bring my love for nature, my passion for learning, and my intuition to the job I do.
Who is JoDoula? That is me – Joanne, a birth doula, inspired by children, women’s health, holistic healing, and nature!
Through working with a wide range of individuals I have found a connection between society’s way of living, our emotions, and how this leads to the outcome of our health. My background goes from working with special needs kids in the school system and group homes, to being a health interpreter, and working with pregnant women in an outpatient county clinic.
I love, love, love to learn from nature! I engage in different activities like beekeeping, organic and native gardening, hiking, and contemplating the beauty of nature. Between the demands of the everyday world, I also add self-discovery/exploration through meditation, reading, and practicing energy healing. The community I have built is surrounded by nature, my daughter, and my love partner.
JoDoula is continuing the tradition of cultures around the world in supporting women and their families in becoming parents.
At JoDoula I bring my experience of growing up with my grandmother and seeing first-hand how prenatal and postnatal support strengthens the relationship between mother and her new born. My intention is always to allow you to feel comfortable so you can find in yourself the strength and wisdom to motherhood.
