Are you considering

doula support?…

Perhaps you’re a new mom, expectant couple,

or a busy professional

seeking support, knowledge, and care for your expanding family?

This may be your first child…or third… and you want a professional to monitor your newborn while you rest.

You have new priorities, including infant care, and want help getting started.

The books you’ve read about IVF are full of information, but you are still confused about what's the best option for you.

House-work is so time-consuming that it’s all you have time to do, and eating well has become inconsistent.

You think grocery shopping is boring or inconvenient, you would rather have someone do it.

So, you can focus on cooking and eating.

You’re preparing for the arrival of a new baby and need education and a plan for best practices, labor prep, postpartum recovery, and home care.

Life is changing, and you need solutions to improve and support your health and wellness goals.

Perinatal health is important, and you want to stay on track with your nutrition and mental health to reduce stress during labor.

Perhaps you have dietary concerns/ allergies/ or a specific health condition that requires trauma-informed care.

Baby is on the way, and you want care or nutrition support for the weeks following the C-section, when you are not able to plan or prepare food because you’re resting.

You know that increasing hip and pelvic flexibility is a priority and necessary for pain management and labor recovery.

Until now, no perinatal doula has shown you how to use holistic life skills to develop a consistently healthy lifestyle.

ASK YOURSELF THIS…

Is reliable help becoming harder to find?

Is standard care ineffective, leaving you feeling invisible?

Do you still have questions after your OB/ GYN appointment?

If you knew what you were doing, would you feel confident?

Let me help you and your family develop a perinatal wellness plan, reduce stress, and save time.

Together, we will create a prioritized perinatal wellness plan

designed for success.

Hi, I am Trina, a certified holistic doula and perinatal wellness birth worker.

I provide nutritional consulting, perinatal care, and postpartum mommy and infant care.

My career started when I became obsessed with my health and wellness while working in the hospitality industry.

I was overworked, undernourished, and unhappy about my lifestyle.

I wanted to be healthier, so I began by working on my Livity- rather than diet. Later, develop a set of lifestyle skills to support spiritual empowerment, healthy personal care, and consistent positive habits.

My mission is to provide high-quality, culturally informed care to indigenous women and their children.
