You are being called into something sacred.
You are at the threshold of something profound.
Your birth will transform you.
You are being invited to trust your body, to listen deeply, and to move through birth with intention and devotion. Sacred experiences are not meant to be held alone. They are meant to be witnessed, protected, and honored. I would love to walk along side you.
Being a birth doula is a devotional practice. I am devoted to you. My work is intentionally intimate. I take on a limited number of families so I can offer spacious, responsive, and fully attuned support—care that is tailored entirely to you, your values and priorities, and your vision for birth.
I currently serve clients within Chicago and northern suburbs, offering in-person, hands-on support designed to meet you exactly where you are, reflecting your power and agency back to you.
Approaching birth with Intention
Do you want to feel calm, confident, and fully prepared, even within the unpredictability of birth?
Do you feel that birth can be a sacred, transformative experience—not just a medical event?
Do you desire a low-intervention or unmedicated birth?
Are you seeking a deeper level of support, an advocate—someone who truly knows you, your values, and your vision for birth?
Are you ready to invest in an experience that prioritizes not just your baby’s arrival, but how you arrive as a mother or parent?
If you feel aligned with this approach, I invite you to book a complimentary discovery call.
Because this level of care is not about checking boxes. It is about devotion. Presence. Transformation.
Julie brought a wealth of knowledge and experience to the birth of our daughter. The prenatal visits were invaluable in helping us articulate our birth values and preferences, as well as helping us develop key self-advocacy skills for interacting with hospital staff. At the birth itself, Julie provided a calm and encouraging presence. Throughout the process, we appreciated that she listened closely to our preferences and values, tailoring her approach to our needs. I'm lucky to look back on my birth as an empowering and spiritually rich experience, thanks in no small part to Julie!

When hiring a doula, my wife and I looked for someone who would bring wisdom and calm to our labor and delivery experience. We were immediately at ease with Julie and felt that she would be the perfect support person for us as I gave birth and my wife and I became parents. In the lead up to my due date, Julie was a wonderful resource. She brought evidence-based information and delivered it with kindness and care. And during my marathon of three days of labor, Julie was rock solid, helping with comfort measures and being a constant supportive presence. We will forever be grateful that Julie was part of our experience becoming a family of three.

Who does a doula hire to be her doula? I've been a doula for six years, andI know lots of doulas. When I got pregnant my husband and I knew we wanted a doula, but I was picky and knew exactly the kind of person I wanted to support me in my birth. It was Julie. Julie has a wise woman energy. She stays curious and if she senses turmoil she encourages you to drive deeper into yourself to explore what you're feeling. Julie has all the knowledge and experience, and on top of that she's incredibly thoughtful. She's gentle and humble, and stands her ground when needed. She's the quiet presence who will be exactly what you need of her. She's a doula's doula.
