Megan began her journey into doula work after the birth of her first son. Inspired and excited by the idea of supporting families during their pregnancies and births she began her work in 2011. Trading the late night world of restaurant management for waking up in the middle of the night for clients was a thrill! After 5 years as an independent doula Megan began to build a team of doulas to help support more clients. Her focus is now on leading her team and helping women and families prepare and navigate the world of birth, babies and parenting.

Her trainings include:

• Motherwit Birth doula
• Pro Doula trained doula
• Nourri Source Marraine
• Homeopathy for Birth with MICH
• Nutrition for Pregnancy with LMU
• Babywearing Level 1 with CBS
• Rebozo for Birth with Gena Kirby
• CPR with Jessica West

Megan is on a mission to make sure that mothers are well supported, that families have the resources and tools they need to succeed as parents, and to help make the journey easier with less judgment and more love.

When she isn’t answering client emails and teaching prenatal classes, she’s writing, raising her two boys with a feminist twist, and sipping on microbrews.

Valerie is passionate about birth and brings that energy and enthusiasm to every family she works with. After the birth of her second son she was thrust into the magical world of birth work, leaving behind her previous career as a chef.

Valerie’s trainings include:

• Motherwit trained doula
• Breastfeeding Essentials
• Rebozo with Gena Kirby

When Valerie isn’t heading off to births, she can be found buying more books for her personal library, running after her two boys, or at the ballet studio working on her plies.

Kimberly brings her experience as a preemie mom, with two very different birth experiences (one VBAC and one C-Section) to help parents prepare for whatever might unfold. She believes information and education are key and works with clients to prepare them for breastfeeding and the early days of having a newborn. 

Kimberly’s trainings include:

• MBC trained birth and postpartum doula
• Nourri-Source Marraine

Kimberly has an interest in photography and is a trained musician. When she isn’t working with clients she is raising her two children and freelancing in graphic design.  

Nancy began her journey into doula work in 2018, after giving birth to her twins. Now a mom of three, with very different birth experiences behind her, she believes that evidence based information and emotional support are essential for transitioning to new parenthood. With a degree in anthropology, women’s studies and film, and her experience as a professional photographer, Nancy brings her grounded and positive energy to every family she works with. 

Her trainings include:

• Certified  Birth and Postpartum Doula and Lactation Educator 
• Certified in Holistic Childbirth, Birth Trauma Prevention
• CPR Level C

In her spare time (as a mom of twins, we’re not sure what that looks like!) Nancy spends her time enjoying tennis, camping, and good conversation. A prairie girl originally, she loves beaches and forests and lakes- she’s happiest outdoors.

From a very young age, Catalina discovered a passion for working with women and children. Through her 10+ years of work in social service she gained much experience working with marginalized communities, being an ally, and advocate for youth, women, and children.

Magali has been trained and working as a doula since 2019. She discovered doula work while in British Columbia, and after completing her degree in social studies began to follow her passion working with new families.
