Invest in yourself!
I'm so glad you're here!
Truly—thank you for inviting me to be part of your journey. I don’t claim to know everything about birth, but after attending more than 125 births, I’m reminded every time how much there still is to learn. That’s what keeps this work exciting for me: the constant opportunity to grow and evolve as a human, a mother, a partner, a friend, a photographer, a doula, and a business owner. Life moves in seasons, and maybe this is your season of learning—perhaps something in my approach or personality resonates with your own vision. If so, I’m deeply honored. I believe we all have something meaningful to offer one another, and I’m just as excited to learn from you as you are to grow through this mentorship.
I host monthly coffee meetups for doulas and birth photographers as a way to nurture true community over competition. These gatherings give us a chance to connect, share stories, and build meaningful relationships with people who understand the unique joys and challenges of this work. Being in this field can sometimes feel isolating, which is why I created this space—to bring together like-minded individuals, foster support, and help each of us find “our people.”
If you’re feeling ready to deepen your skills, strengthen your confidence, and grow a doula business that reflects who you truly are, I’d be honored to walk alongside you. Mentorship is a beautiful next step—a chance to receive personalized guidance, ask real questions, and build a practice that feels aligned, sustainable, and supported. If something here has sparked a feeling of “yes,” I invite you to take that next step and join me. Let’s grow, learn, and create the kind of work—and life—you’re dreaming of.

"Choosing Kelly as my doula mentor was the perfect compliment to my Doula training. From the first contact with Kelly, I felt a warmth and excitement from her to invite me into the birth world. When I began my doula training I was able to meet fellow doulas at one of her monthly coffee meet ups for birth workers. This opportunity helped foster connection and guidance as I began my journey as a doula, which otherwise can feel scary and overwhelming. Although I was fortunate to find an incredible doula training centered around social justice, cultural humility and accessibility, I felt as though I needed a mentor and the opportunity to shadow a birth. I am so grateful I chose Kelly to be this person. I was drawn to her extensive experience and expertise with doula work, but more importantly her inclusive language, kindness, silliness and enthusiasm to share her knowledge. My birth shadow experience with Kelly was life changing. It is extremely difficult to find shadowing opportunities and she welcomed me with open arms. I was admittedly nervous for this experience, but Kelly made me feel comfortable throughout the entire process and provided humor along the way. We had meetings to discuss expectations and a follow up to debrief the birth. I always felt in the loop and like I truly was part of the process. During the birth she offered commentary (when appropriate) and made me feel cared for even in the midst of her commitment to the client. I feel like I am stepping away with more confidence and insight into the inner workings of doula life. Her mentorship offering has allowed me to gain invaluable first hand experience. I would recommend Kelly as a mentor to anyone looking for guidance and insight into birth work!"
