My name is Patricia,
and I am a Birth Doula.
Doula is a new term
for many people -
it means, "Woman's Servant".
I serve women and their families throughout their pregnancy, birth and beyond.
"I Mother the Mothers"
The services I offer are a gift from my Father, given with compassion, love, and understanding.
You co-labor with the Creator to bring life to earth.
I co-labor with you.
It would be an honor
to provide you with
Resources, Childbirth Classes,
Labor, Birth & Postpartum Services.
