Who’s that girl?
It’s Collin!
For a decade and a half, I’ve been passionately dedicated to empowering my clients' experiences through continued education, real-world experience and hands-on relationships.
I’ve spent more than 15 years gaining and becoming proficient in a wide range of versatile methods and modalities for uplifting, easing, and elevating each stage of the parenting journey, from fertility to pregnancy, childbirth and all the way to infant feeding.
I hold the highest level of certification as a Certified Elite Labor Doula through the training organization, ProDoula. In addition to my Labor and Birth Doula Certification, I am proud to hold certifications as an Reproductive Health Specialist, Fertility Doula, Childbirth Educator, Postpartum and Infant Care Doula, Newborn Care Specialist, and Infant Feeding Specialist.
I fiercely believe in compassionately offering: unbiased, evidence based, and judgment-free support. I actively choose to support all families throughout any type of birth and to do so intentionally, every single time.
I also strongly believe in giving back to our community and watering where we are planted. Those are just two reasons I started the Doula Differently Mentorship Program and why 10% of each client fee goes directly back into community programs.
When I’m not elbow-deep in doula work, I love spending time with my two rescue pups, doing artwork, practicing mindfulness + meditation, hanging with my fam’, eating Indian food, snuggling my godchildren, and DIYing ALL THE THINGS!
