From Basketball Coach to Birth Coach


Being invited into your birth space is an honor I never take lightly. Birth is an incredible process and you are strong enough to meet the challenge. I'm here to help you tap into your inner strength, build your confidence with practice and knowledge, and cheer you on as you birth your baby in the way that feels right for you. However your story unfolds, I want you to be so proud of yourself and look back on your baby’s birth day with a profound sense of "I DID THAT!”

You and your baby deserve to meet in a calm, supported space.

Kind words from my clients

“Carolyn's care allowed us to really bond with our baby as we felt more well rested and could focus on him…we are so thankful for her services! Would highly recommend her as a doula!”

— Nina Santos

“Carolyn was exactly what I needed all throughout my almost 40 hour labor! She knew so many calming techniques and made sure my partner stayed involved as well. If I have another baby she’ll be the first person I reach out to!”

— Paula Glaser

“Carolyn was a godsend! Out of the 3 doulas I interviewed, Carolyn and I just ‘clicked!’ It’s such an giant unknown with your first birth, and I’m so glad Carolyn was at my side! I highly recommend her!”

— Laura Blest
