Hi, friend! I'm currently in the process of certifying to be a birth and postpartum doula through DONA International. I'm asking for your help in raising the funds needed to pay for workshops, books, application fees, and membership fees.

I have spent my post-college life working burnout job after burnout job, unable to find work that was sustainable and fulfilling. Now I have discovered my love of childcare, and more specifically, doula-ing! A doula is a caregiver who provides whole-family support before, during, and/or after birth. They provide practical, informational, and emotional support for birthing parents, birth partners, siblings, and all other family members and friends who are included in the family's adjustment to having a new baby. When I learned what a doula is and what they do, it felt like a perfect fit for me. I specifically want to work with queer and neurodivergent families. Every family deserves a doula who they don't have to explain themselves to. There aren't anywhere near enough queer and spicy doulas to serve everyone in the community who is seeking support. I've finally discovered my calling and I'm so ready to embark on a life-long mission that has direction and purpose!

For my 31st birthday on May 19th, 2025, please consider donating to this fund to help me help others <3
