My Values as a Doula

Accessibility and Advocacy

Every family deserves meaningful support. My sliding scale begins at a sustainable rate that reflects the care and advocacy I provide. Families who contribute at the higher end help fund access for those who might not otherwise receive doula support, creating a shared model of care rooted in community. I also offer payment plans and provide bilingual support. Se habla español. My role is to advocate for you, your baby, and your choices every step of the way.

Transparency, Intuition, and Compassion

I believe in honest conversations, deep listening, and care that feels safe and judgment free. I bring both intuition and clear communication into my work, holding space with compassion while honoring your autonomy and inner wisdom.

Education and Justice

Knowledge is power. I am passionate about evidence based education and reproductive justice, ensuring families have access to information, options, and respectful care. My work is rooted in empowering you to make informed decisions that align with your values and lived experience.

  • "I was recovering from a cesarean, struggling with breast-feeding, running on very little sleep and her presence, knowledge, and support played such a critical role in my recovery postpartum."

    I could not recommend Angela enough. I felt very physically and mentally defeated from my birthing experience and Angela was so supportive and comforting during those first few weeks. I was recovering from a cesarean, struggling with breast-feeding, running on very little sleep and her presence, knowledge, and support played such a critical role in my recovery postpartum. She was absolutely wonderful at taking care of my son. She provided me with resources and advice on everything from finding a lactation consultant to the nourishing foods I should be eating and even the environment to help my baby sleep and thrive. She was there with me in the hours of the night and I know I would not have gotten through that without her.
