Emily's Story
Becoming a Doula
I knew I would end up serving in a field of work that was close to childbirth and women. Since I was young I have been enthralled by the process of pregnancy and birth. The beautiful roar of a mother bringing life into this world is quite empowering and beautiful. At a young age I was able to witness my siblings home births. It was an experience that I will never forget and that I blame for putting this fire in my heart. I became a doula because I know that in today's world, pregnancy and childbirth can be extremely overwhelming. I want to help mothers understand that they have so many choices to make and I want to help them make an informed one. I am honored to work alongside a community of women to serve women.
