Birth is an important gateway for families into parenting or expanding their family. My focus is in supporting your relationship with your partner and assisting both of you through the birth of your baby. I truly believe your partner is in labor as much as you are, (mentally, emotionally, and spiritually), and as a unit need nurturing and support. My hope is that you come away from birth more bonded and connected.

My focus is on supporting the birthing person, and their partner, before birth and through the birth itself. I teach Hypnosis for Birth in private sessions to prepare for birth, and during birth providing emotional, physical, and informational support.

I am so happy that I found Nancy for my birth services. My birth center highly recommended her as one of the area’s best. I originally signed up just for Nancy’s Hypnosis for Birth classes and discovered she was also a birth doula. After her consultation call, I knew I had to sign up for both services!
Her hypnosis classes were by far the best birth classes I had ever taken. I took a birthing class with my firstborn, but I didn’t feel like it gave me tools I could use for labor. However, I became so prepared with Nancy’s and learned SO much! These classes are a MUST for anyone who is expecting.
As my doula, I trusted her and felt safe in her knowledge when it was time to get to the birthing center. She knew it was time to go as soon as I called her, which was helpful because I wasn’t sure if it was yet that close to giving birth. She ensured I was comfortable during my labor and that both my husband and mother felt a part of the experience.
If you can work with Nancy, I highly recommend it! If you can take her class and hire her as a doula, it is the BEST combo! I recommend Nancy to any expecting mother who wants to feel confident and have actual tools to help support her during labor.

March 2, 2023 at 3:41 pm | Client reviewAt the beginning of my journey through pregnancy, I had never heard of a “doula”. Along the way, through my research into what my doting husband referred to as my “woo-woo” home birth; I was referred to Nancy by a friend. By “woo-woo”, I mean that I had intended to have a crystal laden, natural, water birth at my home. Nancy’s expertise in hypnotherapy seemed a PERFECT cherry on top of my Woo-Woo Sundae. The concept felt perfectly complementary to what I had already been planning, but also a great skill to learn for traversing daily life, both before and after baby! Nancy has such a wonderful “bedside manner”, if you will. I felt comfortable and safe with her immediately. The training sessions were great. If your partner is also more of a “woo-woo” type, it might be a little easier than I had it with my well-intentioned non-woo-woo-er. However, they’re not the one giving birth in the manner of their choosing (baby-willing); so stand up for yourself and how you want to prepare! My sweet babe, after nearly joining us at 32wks, decided that she was frank breech and not interested in negotiating. I made it through an (unsuccessful) external cephalic version without pain meds by using my skills from Nancy. After that, we surrendered to the fact that our babe would join us via c-section and Nancy was very supportive. She was at the hospital, bright and early and stayed with me throughout the joyful process. It wasn’t what we had planned, but having her there put me at ease.
