Meet your Doula, Shannon

Transformative Birth Experience with Shannon

I’m Shannon, an inclusive Birth Doula located in Tempe, Arizona

MY WHY

I found my passion for birth work while completing my Master's degree in Women's and Gender Studies. Doulas inspire me because they play a crucial role in our healthcare system, creating positive impacts on key maternal & infant health outcomes and the experiences of birthing people.

A LITTLE BIT ABOUT ME

I hold space for all identities, families, and beliefs, honoring your personal birth choices and preferences during a powerful and transformative time. I feel privileged to walk alongside you, helping you navigate and cherish a profound life experience.

I am trained in trauma-informed care, prenatal yoga, nurturing parenting education, and postpartum doula support. In 2023, I took a leap of faith and began my journey as a student midwife. I am currently training as a Lactation Counselor.

My family, my friends and my pets are my world.

I was trying for a VBAC after feeling very out of control in my first birth. My VBAC was ultimately successful! Shannon helped me to feel super empowered, strong, and supported throughout the entire pregnancy, labor, and birth process.

TAYLOR
She made the whole birthing process a breeze. She even helped us afterwards and made sure that we were taken care of. We loved working with her.

SAYAKA
Shannon opened our eyes to so much regarding birth. We had such a great conversation and we even changed our birth plan. We left that first meet up knowing we’d be crazy to not have her as our doula! She’s truly amazing.

KYLIE
Even if you think you can skip a doula, and your partner is an awesome support, a doula is so helpful to everyone at the birth! Trust me, it's so worth it! And the memories she captured are priceless.

MIRANDA
After my water broke, she stayed by my side until our little girl was in my arms.

KYLIE
I ended up having a C-section and Shannon was amazing helping us postpartum during my recovery and setting us up for success at home. I love that she is knowledgeable, confident, and will be on your side for what you decide for your birth.
