The 603 Doula

03/22/2024

It's bittersweet and very ironic that I'm officially making this announcement on . I celebrate, honor, and respect all of my fellow today and every day.

I've made the decision to temporarily step back from doula work and shift roles to being a full-time SAHM until my rapidly growing (😭) littlest goes to kindergarten. It's not a decision that was made lightly, but one I feel called to and very happy about in this current season of life.

To each and every family I have met, supported, and gotten to know these past few years, I thank you from the bottom of my heart and soul for your trust, faith, and friendship. To be invited into your lives, homes, and birth spaces during some of the most exciting, fragile, and vulnerable times in your lives is an honor and privilege that I cherish and am truly grateful for.

I have every intention of returning to birth and postpartum work when the time is right, and I am hoping to keep my toes in the community as much as time allows.

Please stay in touch and reach out as much you like.

Wishing you all the best in this crazy, beautiful life.

Love,
Doula Mel

🤍 Whether in the hospital, birth center, or your home.
🤍 Medicated or unmedicated.
🤍 Your first baby or your third.
🤍 I will be calm, caring, resourceful, encouraging, and one of your biggest cheerleaders.

In love with my Mother's Day gift from my forever supportive and amazing husband.✨️😍
🪻I've been wanting one of these custom-made from for well over a year. .lotus, your work is beautiful, and the photo doesn't do it justice!
🪻From 1-10cm. I can't say it enough. Bodies are incredible!
🪻Looking forward to bringing this w/me for clients to show the visual representation of how the cervix opens to birth your baby.
🪻While cervical change is an important part of labor & childbirth, it's NOT the only indicator and you do always have the choice to decline a cervical exam prior to and during labor.
