Hello, friend. I’m so glad you’re here. Whether you’re dreaming of becoming a parent, preparing for birth, or navigating postpartum, I hope we get the chance to connect. I’m Kaitlyn, a DONA Certified Birth Doula and Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator. I take a holistic, natural-minded approach to care, one that emphasizes the sacredness of birth and parenthood, rooted in compassion, trust, and evidence-based education.
I’ve been immersed in the birth world since 2018 and have had the joy of walking with many families through pregnancy, birth, and the early postpartum days. I specialize in supporting those planning an unmedicated hospital birth, pursuing home birth, navigating birth anxiety, or simply wanting thoughtful advocacy and care along the way.
I hold a Bachelor’s degree in Education, and before becoming a doula and childbirth educator, I spent a decade teaching in the classroom. I’ve always been drawn to roles that nurture growth and offer direction, and teaching taught me the power of presence, patience, and steady guidance while caring for children and their families.
Both of my children were born unmedicated at home, and I have a deep love and respect for home birth. I personally value the midwifery model of care, and my own experiences taught me how essential it is to be surrounded by people you trust and feel safe with. I truly believe the right place to give birth is wherever you feel safest, whether that’s at home, in a hospital, or at a birth center.
My hope is that you feel truly seen, supported, and empowered in every step of this journey. I offer wholehearted care rooted in trust and love, and it’s my honor to serve families as they grow into their next season of life.
Welcome! My name is Noura, I am a DONA Certified Birth Doula, RI Certified Perinatal Doula, Postpartum Doula and lucky mama to 2 beautiful children. I stepped into my role as a birth doula because I seek to walk alongside women as they bring their babies into this world feeling empowered and respected. I trust the physiological process of birth and the intuition of women, and I work to support them by providing immense care and love as they navigate the transition to motherhood.
Before being called to doula work, I received a Bachelor’s degree in Health Services Administration. I went on to spend 7 years working as a chiropractic assistant in a prenatal/pediatric chiropractic office. As a part of my job, I documented hundreds of birth stories and helped women heal their bodies during their postpartum period. I helped answer questions they had regarding postpartum care for themselves and in doing that, I held space for women to share their birth stories and stories of motherhood. I quickly found myself being pulled into the birth world but it wasn’t until after becoming a mother that I truly understood the support that mothers needed most. Having had both a medicated hospital birth and unmedicated home birth, I come to doula work with a very down-to-earth approach to the individual expectations and feelings of each person. My lived experiences allow for me to empathize with my clients in a deeper, more intentional way. I strive for moms to have safe, memorable, beautiful, and empowering births and postpartum experiences. Being cared for and nurtured extends beyond just pregnancy, and supporting a mother and her family through postpartum is one of the most important jobs of the village I provide. This time period in your life as a parent is meant to be filled with bonding, healing, and resting. My approach as your postpartum doula is to help you use your innate wisdom to care for your baby while I care for you. In both areas of doula work, birth and postpartum, I prioritize tuning into the unique needs and desires of each family I serve, bringing a skillful combination of knowledge, and unwavering care and compassion to your birth and postpartum team.
