Flower of Life Doula Services
Grounded Support for Birth.
Blending evidence-based information, emotional presence, and deep respect for each family’s unique birth journey.
Congratulations!
This is such an exciting time! Whether this is your first baby or your third, every experience is unique, and it's natural to have questions along the way. Having a doula by your side to support you, provide you with the research to make informed choices, and advocate for your preferences, can make all the difference in your birth experience. With continuity of care, you have a trusted support person throughout pregnancy and birth, offering stability and reassurance; especially when unexpected changes arise during labor. This consistent presence empowers you to navigate each transition with confidence and calm.
You've got this, and I'm here to help every step of the way!
“Published data indicate that one of the most effective tools to improve labor and delivery outcomes is the continuous presence of support personnel, such as a doula. Given that there are no associated measurable harms, this resource is probably underutilized.”

Client Testimonials
“Christine was amazing. We are so grateful that we had her with us during our birth journey. I originally was not going to get a doula. But in the end I decided it was best to have someone there to support my husband and me. She helped us prepare for birth mentally in ways I never could have done by myself. When in labor, she was there to offer sound advise and help us understand where we were in labor (both at home and at the hospital). At the hospital she provided so much mental support to my husband after things didn't quite go as planned.
She very knowledgeable. Has a calm demeanor and is a just lovely person to work with. We are very grateful to her and highly recommend her!”

“I was looking for a doula as soon as I found out I was pregnant as I haven’t had the best advocating for myself in the past, I knew that once I was pregnant it was no longer about me but my baby and the shared experiences me and my family would have together on this journey. I was considered high risk somewhat early on and Christine empowered not only myself but my husband with knowledge we didn’t even know we would need. She helped me heal in ways I didn’t know I needed and gave us tools that in the end gave us the most beautiful birth any first time mom could ever ask for. She helped me when I started to panic and reminded me that not everything is as scary as it sounds. In the end she gave us ultimately the most beautiful birth experience and I’m so forever grateful and thankful.”

“I chose Christine to be my doula near the start of my third trimester and it was the best decision I made. It was my first birth and I really wasn't sure what to do or expect. I wanted someone with me at the hospital who had experience and would be able to guide me and advocate for me. Christine was all of that and more. She was extremely knowledgeable and helpful from start to finish and helped me to feel more confident and prepared when it came time for the baby to arrive. I had an amazing first birthing experience and I owe a lot of that to Christine. I highly recommend Christine and plan to work with her again for future pregnancies.”

“Christine is an amazing doula, I moved across the US at 30 weeks pregnant and didn’t think I would be able to have a doula at this birth. I quickly found Christine and she was so reassuring that it wasn’t too late and that I could have the birth I wanted again with her help. She was so fast to respond to any questions I had at any time and was so knowledgeable. I always felt safe and comfortable in her care and she never made me feel ashamed or uneasy. She is just a fantastic person and even more fantastic to have at your labor and delivery. I’m so grateful for her!”
— Madison
“Christine was absolutely amazing before, during, & after my birth with my daughter! I came to her at 37 weeks pregnant a bit panicked because of how late in the game I was. She assured me I could still plan for my birth & that it wasn’t too late. She was very sweet & provided exceptional knowledge & care every step of the way! Christine is an absolute gem to have on your birth team, I always felt like my voice was being heard when I spoke to her. I highly recommend using her doula services!”
