Welcome

Stepping into parenthood for the first time can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to figure it out alone.

 

As your doula, I offer steady, inclusive, evidence-based support so you feel informed, grounded, and confident every step of the way.

 

Together, we’ll create a birth experience rooted in trust, strength, and your own inner wisdom.

Inclusive doula support for new parents

If you’re looking for birth or postpartum support from someone who will guide you, advocate for you, and help you trust yourself, you’re exactly where you need to be. I’m here to help you feel confident and supported from pregnancy through postpartum.

Whether you’re excited, overwhelmed, or somewhere in between, you’ll feel informed, empowered, and fully held every step of the way.

Hey, I'm Meaghan

Birth is a profound transition, and you deserve support that honors your choices, your identity, and your inner wisdom. I’m here to create a calm, informed, inclusive space where you feel deeply seen and fully supported,  especially if this is your first time navigating pregnancy and birth.

I became a doula after witnessing how life-changing it can be when someone feels truly supported through this journey. It’s now my passion and purpose.

 

When I’m not with clients, I’m with my wife and kiddos, enjoying the joy of simple moments like a hot cup of coffee or a good book.

What is a doula? 

A doula provides a steady, nurturing presence throughout pregnancy, birth, and the early days of parenthood. We’re here to hold space for your emotions, your questions, and your hopes — offering calm reassurance, practical support, and gentle guidance every step of the way.

Unlike medical providers, doulas offer continuous care — someone who stays with you throughout the entire experience, from those first early signs of labor to settling in with your baby. Having one familiar, trusted person at your side brings a sense of safety and connection that can make the whole journey feel more grounded and supported.

Doulas provide non-medical, evidence-based support, and the benefits are well-documented. Families who work with a doula often experience shorter labors, fewer interventions, less need for pain medication, a lower likelihood of cesarean birth, and a more positive birth experience overall.

My role is simple: to walk alongside you with compassion, honor your choices, and help you trust your own strength as you welcome your baby.

My Mission

My mission is to be the steady, trusted presence every new parent deserves — someone who listens, advocates, and helps you navigate this transition with confidence and calm.

 

I believe your birth story matters, your choices matter, and you deserve support that reflects your identity, your values, and your vision for your baby’s arrival.

"Working with Meaghan as my doula was one of the best decisions I made for my first pregnancy and birth. If you’re on the fence about hiring a doula, especially Meaghan — do it. She made one of the most intense experiences of my life not only manageable, but meaningful and empowering."

Frequently Asked Questions

01

Do you travel?

Yes! The distance I can accommodate depends on your location and whether I have other clients with nearby due dates. Reach out and I’ll let you know right away if your birth window is available.

03

What about my partner? 

I’m here to support both of you. My role isn’t to replace your partner — it’s to help them feel confident, prepared, and supported so we can work as a team. I offer guidance, practical tools, and reassurance so your partner can be as involved as they want to be throughout the entire journey.

02

What types of birth do you support?

I support all types of births. Every birth is unique, and I’m honored to support families choosing hospital, home, medicated, unmedicated, cesarean, VBAC, and water births. My role is to help you feel informed, supported, and confident in whatever path you choose.

04

When should I hire a doula?

When it comes to hiring a doula, the sooner the better. Most families secure their doula by the start of the third trimester, which gives us plenty of time to meet, build a relationship, explore your options, and prepare for birth together.
