hi, i’m katie.

I am Bay Area, CA based birth & postpartum doula, birth educator, and mother dedicated to holding space for laboring people and their support systems that centers the inherent power and wisdom of the body and each birthing person. I believe in evidence-based & trauma-informed care, choice and informed consent, and I care deeply about supporting clients in the ways that make physical, emotional and spiritual sense for them. 

I offer labor, birth & postpartum support through a series of prenatal and postpartum visits, on-call availability and labor & postpartum support, and I work with you to find the birthing & postpartum paths that feels best for you.

I came to this work after years in nonprofit arts, environmental and social change spaces. I believe that the way we enter this world and carry life into this world directly informs our capacity for change and progress later in life, and I am committed to supporting the transformative power of reproductive experiences. 

I view birth work as restorative and revolutionary work, and I am humbled by and so grateful for the work I do to support families during this transitional time in their lives.

“The best part of working with Katie is that she never told us what we needed to do or took over. Instead she empowered me as the birthing person to feel confident in my ability to make decisions for myself and our baby.”

-Kate Campbell, Former Client
