Who this is for:

  • You live in Chatham or surrounding areas (the Windsor, Sarnia, London triangle)

  • Expectant first time moms

  • Moms who want a different experience from previous births

  • Moms who want a hospital or home birth 

  • Moms who want an unmedicated, medicated, or surgical birth

  • Families who are welcoming their baby via surrogacy 

  • Women who are going through fertility

  • Moms who have experienced previous loss

who this isn’t for:

  • Expectant moms living outside of the Southwestern Ontario area

  • Moms whose labour partner is 110% confident and doesn’t need support

  • Moms who feel 110% confident in their labour partner’s ability to support them throughout the pregnancy, birth, and postpartum period

  • Moms whose only goal is to have a healthy baby and are not focused on their birth experience

  • Those nearing their due date as it will not give us enough time to develop a relationship

Doula birth services include:

When you partner with me to support your birth, you receive:

Emotional Support - I provide continuous emotional support, helping you feel calm, confident, and empowered during the entire birth process.

Physical Support - I assist with comfort measures, including relaxation techniques, breathing exercises, and labor positions to help manage pain and facilitate labor progress.

Informational Support - I provide evidence-based information to help you make informed decisions about your birth plan, interventions, and postpartum care.

Advocacy - I support your choices, helping you communicate your preferences with healthcare providers to ensure your birth experience aligns with your wishes.

Postpartum Care - I assist in the early days after birth, providing guidance with newborn care, feeding support, and helping you adjust emotionally and physically.

Non-judgmental Presence - I’m here to support you without bias, respecting your decisions and the unique nature of your journey.

You don’t just get a doula when you hire me.

As a mental health professional, I care about your wellbeing and am experienced in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders.

I also worked in a hospital setting for 10 years and understand the healthcare system inside and out.

Specifically, my “Let’s Doula This” Package includes:

  • Free consultation visit

  • Phone/text/email support throughout your pregnancy

  • 1 prenatal visit to review your birth preferences

  • On-call 24/7 from 37 weeks gestation until birth

  • Continuous labour support

  • Use of my various tools during labour (CUB stool, TENS machine, Theragun, diffuser, etc) 

  • Access to my lending library, hypnobirthing course, audio meditations and tracks

  • 2 hours of immediate postpartum support

  • 1-2 postpartum visits to assist with feeding support, meal prep, laundry, baby care

  • Phone/text/email support for 6 weeks postpartum

  • “Before our first was born my partner would say ‘I don’t understand why we need a doula’ & after our son was Earthside he looked at me and said ‘I would have paid her double’. Tracy is one of a kind & I know for a fact that she was a driving force in why both our births were as incredible as they were.”

  • “Tracy provided us with a positive birth experience that I can both look back on and talk about, something that I hadn't had the opportunity to do so before. A doula is an absolute gift. My husband and I will forever be grateful for Tracy.”

  • “It's hard to put into words the impact that Tracy had on the birth of my daughter. I don't think I would have been able to have a successful home birth without her. I wish that every family could have the support that we had from Tracy in all of their birth journeys!”
