Meet Janet, a devoted birth doula and childbirth educator with a passion for supporting families through fertility, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and abortion care. A proud mother of two daughters, Janet loves spending time with friends, hosting themed events, watching reality TV, and exploring the outdoors with her family.
Inspired by her own birth experiences, Janet recognized the lack of postpartum support in her community and committed herself to making a difference. She brings a modern, heart-centered approach to birthing, blending evidence-based practices with natural remedies and holistic care to create a safe, nurturing environment for families.
Janet supports families through pregnancy, birth, lactation, and postnatal care, providing advocacy, strength, and guidance every step of the way. She works closely with healthcare teams to ensure personalized support, believing that every family deserves care that meets their unique needs.

Whether planning a birth, processing a loss, or learning more about your body, she holds space, shares knowledge, and empowers families to feel confident and supported.
Passionate about her work, Janet is dedicated to bringing joy, guidance, and empowerment to every family she accompanies, standing for choice, access to care, and a personalized, compassionate approach to parenthood.
Dayle - Indigenous Full Spectrum Doula

Hi, I'm Dayle!
I'm a proud mother of two daughters, and my own journey into motherhood inspired me to reconnect with the teachings, traditions, and ways of knowing that have supported Indigenous families for generations. That experience ignited a passion for supporting others in a way that honours culture, community, and the sacredness of every stage of life's journey.
I believe every family deserves to feel seen, heard, respected, and deeply supported. My hope is to create a safe and welcoming space where families can explore their options, reconnect with traditional knowledge if they choose, and feel empowered to walk their own unique path through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and beyond.
As an Anishinaabe woman, I am passionate about supporting Indigenous families and advocating for culturally safe, inclusive care for all Indigenous peoples, including the 2Spirit community. I believe in the power of community, the strength of our teachings, and the importance of walking alongside families with compassion, humility, and respect.
It is an honour to support families as they welcome new life, strengthen connections to culture and community, and create meaningful memories that will be carried forward for generations.

Hi, I'm Kerri!
I'm a mom of two with a gentle heart and a passion for creating calm, supportive spaces where families can slow down, take a deep breath, and truly soak in these precious moments with their babies.
The postpartum journey is beautiful, but it can also be exhausting. I know how easy it is to put yourself last while caring for everyone else. My hope is to remind parents that they deserve care too. Whether you're welcoming your baby through birth or adoption, you don't have to do it all on your own.
I have a special love for overnight postpartum support, giving parents the opportunity to rest, recover, and wake up feeling just a little more like themselves. I believe that asking for support is a sign of strength, not weakness, and that every family deserves to be cared for as they find their own rhythm.
One thing motherhood has taught me is that the challenges don't always get easier, but we grow stronger through them. This is your story, and I would be honoured to walk alongside you, helping you find moments of rest, confidence, and peace along the way.
After all... there really ain't no hood like motherhood.
Tracy - Doula & Perinatal Therapist

Hi, I'm Tracy!
My own experiences with pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, including my VBAC journey, are what first inspired me to become a doula. I know firsthand how deeply these experiences can shape us, and I believe every family deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported as they navigate one of life's biggest transitions.
I am passionate about creating a space where you feel safe to ask questions, explore your options, and make informed decisions that align with your values. Whether you're preparing for birth, navigating the early days of postpartum, or carrying experiences from a previous birth, my hope is that you always feel seen, validated, and never alone.
With a background in supporting individuals through mental health and trauma, I bring a calm, compassionate, and steady presence to every family I have the privilege of supporting. I believe that every birth story matters and that compassionate support can help families move through this journey with confidence, connection, and trust.
When I'm not supporting families, you'll usually find me cheering on my kids at their sporting events, listening to a true crime podcast with a coffee in hand, or singing along to my favourite '90s and early 2000s hip-hop and R&B playlists.

Hi, I'm Emily!
I believe birth is one of life's most transformative experiences, and every family deserves to feel supported, informed, and deeply cared for throughout their journey. My goal is to create a calm, welcoming space where you can ask questions, trust your instincts, and make the decisions that feel right for you and your family.
Having supported more than 150 births in home and hospital settings, I've had the privilege of witnessing the incredible strength, resilience, and beauty that exists in every birth story. No two journeys are the same, and I believe your experience should always be honoured with compassion, respect, and personalized support.
I am passionate about supporting families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and infant feeding, blending evidence-informed care with intuition and a holistic approach. I believe in nurturing not only the physical aspects of birth and parenting, but also the emotional and personal experiences that make this chapter so meaningful.
It is an honour to walk alongside families during such an important time in their lives, helping them feel confident, connected, and supported as they welcome their little one and grow into their new roles.

Hi, I'm Katryna!
As a mom of two boys, I know that every family's journey is beautifully unique. Pregnancy, birth, and the transition into parenthood can bring excitement, uncertainty, and so many questions. My goal is to help you feel informed, supported, and confident as you make the choices that are right for you and your family.
I believe in the incredible strength and wisdom that every person already carries within them. My role is to provide compassionate support, share evidence-informed information, and create a space where you feel heard, respected, and empowered throughout your journey.
When I'm not supporting families, you'll often find me outside camping, hiking, or kayaking, or relaxing by the water with a good book. Spending time in nature reminds me of the importance of slowing down, finding balance, and appreciating the simple moments, something I hope to bring into every family I have the privilege of supporting.
