personalized care and support for your birthing experience
As your doula, I am here to provide you information, support, and comfort during pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. During our prenatal(s) we discuss your preferences, desires, fears, and hopes. From there I provide you with evidence-based information as we delve into the process of labor, birth, and the 4th trimester. Most importantly, we find what works for you (and doesn’t!) in terms of emotional and physical support. By the time labor begins, you will feel empowered and confident to bring your baby into the world (with your doula by your side every step of the way).

I believe everyone should have access to a doula. If the above options and packages don’t work for you, please reach out – I am happy to work with folks to get them the support they need. Most HSA/FSA accounts cover the services of a doula.

McKinzey was a wonderful and calming presence during the birth of our son. This was my first pregnancy/delivery and having her as a coach and partner for both myself and my husband provided a huge amount of reassurance for us both. She was a calming and grounding force before, during, and after our delivery. Having the opportunity to meet several times prior to delivery as well as after made our experience with McKinzey so organic and natural. I would recommend her as a birth and postpartum doula. She is wonderful, encouraging, and such an asset to anyone looking for a little extra help with birth or after.
