Heidi

Postpartum Doula and Certified Lactation Education Counselor

I have served families in and around the Twin Cities since 2018. My directive is to provide inclusive, evidence-based support for newly postpartum mothers and their families, tailoring my care to your needs.

The advantages of having me as your doula include expertise with postpartum anxiety and postpartum depression, proficiency with chestfeeding\breastfeeding care, and skills in understanding and supporting mothers who have experienced challenges during pregnancy and birth. I am skilled in working with twins, triplets, multi-age siblings, and extended and blended families.

My care is mother-centric, enveloping mothers and their newborns, partners, siblings, and fur-babies in a cocoon of protection during their postpartum year. I believe this holds space for parents to quiet outside noise, find their unique footing as a family, discovering their voice as parents while getting to know their newborn.

A little about me; along with my passion for supporting new mamas during their postpartum year, I also love travel, photography, history, and wildlife. I am the mother of two exceptional young adults who are the apple of my eye. I consider myself to be a lifelong learner, appreciate good food, new experiences, kindness, and generosity.

It is an honor to serve and I look forward to meeting you.
