Mary Jo is a professionally trained birth doula through the organization DONA International. Doulas provide physical, emotional, and informational support to expecting families during pregnancy, labor and birth, and the immediate postpartum period.  Birth doula support can lower cesarean rates, shorten labor, and reduce the need for medical intervention as well as help facilitate bonding with your new family.

As your doula, her goal is to help you and your family welcome its newest member in a warm, gentle environment.  She does not have her own birth preferences but rather recognizes and embraces the different beliefs and birthing practices of every family she supports. 

If you are interested in using a birth doula, she provides complimentary consultations.
