Birth & Postpartum Doula Services
Personalized support for your unique journey.
Hi, I’m Nicole! (she/her) I live in New Westminster with my rambunctious toddler, and my husband. We love exploring the outdoors and attending toddler playgroups together. I also love listening to podcasts and dancing in Zumba classes.
I have completed both Holistic Birth Doula & Postpartum Doula training through MotherWit Doula Care, as well as the Step 2 Education Breastfeeding Essentials course. I’m so excited to also be a Prenatal Educator with Dancing Star Birth and teach expecting families at Pomegranate Midwives in East Vancouver. I am certified in CPR-C (trained in CPR for babies, children and adults) for your peace of mind. I have completed a mentorship from Morag Hastings of Apple Blossom Families and Dancing Star Birth.
I strive to inform my clients, so you feel confident making educated, evidence-based choices to determine your value system for your birthing experience. I will honour and support those values, encouraging you to root into your instincts and trust your body throughout this physiologic process. I create space to acknowledge the transformation into parenthood and support your family so you feel grounded throughout this time of transition.
At your birth, I tune into you and your support people to anticipate your needs, and take care of small details in maintaining the environment, to promote a more nurturing space for you all. I also offer postpartum support to help your family adjust during the postpartum period.
“Nicole was an amazing support during labour and birth; she did everything from acupressure on my feet during contractions, keeping us hydrated, to helping us leave the house with everything we needed when I started pushing at home and wanted to get to the hospital.”
Serving New Westminster, Burnaby, Vancouver, Surrey, Richmond, Port Moody, Coquitlam & North Delta

Support Every Step of the Way
I'm on call for you from the time of hire, whether it's a phone call at 2am or some questions over text after a midwife appointment!
I provide continuous support throughout your birth from the time you need me, until up 2 hours postpartum.
2 additional postpartum visits are included in my birth doula package, to ensure you have continued support throughout this transitional period into parenthood.
