About

Katie is a birth and postpartum doula. She has been working as an on call nanny for 10 years in the DC area, and took time to travel between work. Since 2012, she has backpacked over 30 countries, and enjoys connecting and learning from traditions around the world. During a course in Thai yoga massage, she was introduced to the world of birth, and the role of a doula, and knew that this was something she wanted to pursue. Katie feels that her work as a doula really weaves together her experience working with families as a nanny, and her healing, spiritual work. Katie has a passion for cooking healthy, plant based food, and enjoys time by the beach the most, especially if that beach is in Greece or Thailand. Katie brings her meditative, compassionate presence to her postpartum doula work, and feels honored to assist you and your family during this special rite of passage.
