I believe that every woman has the right to make informed decisions regarding the management of her birth. My goal as a doula is to aid women to attain this goal while helping them labor and give birth with dignity and strength.As a recent graduate from a duel master’s program in Women’s and Gender Studies and Sociology I understand how women’s birth experiences have the potential to be sources of great empowerment that translate to other avenues of their lives. I was born and raised abroad in Jakarta, Indonesia which has colored my worldview in a positive way. I am open minded, grounded and dedicated to women’s health and the birth experience. I am also a certified Hypnobirthing instructor as well as a homebirth midwife working in the boston area. Please see my website at www.homebirthmatters.com.

As a doula, I believe that birth is a natural, normal and sacred process.  I live and work in Boston with my husband and two cats.  I truly believe in this work and trust the natural birth process. I believe in the power of women helping laboring women.  I believe in the power of a soft touch, of an encouraging word.  I believe in the power of information and knowledge, of reassurance and empathy.  And most importantly I believe in the power of a woman giving birth.  Being present at the birth of your child is an honor and privilege.
