About Ashley

I am a mother to three children aged 13, 11 and 4. I have experienced hospital and homebirth myself, as well as supported clients in both of these environments. Early in my first pregnancy, I read HypnoBirthing, by Marie Mongan, and with that, quickly became fascinated by all things pregnancy and childbirth.

As a mom, I am deeply invested in parenting my children with love and empathy, and hope to be a part of raising a next generation that cares deeply for each other and our earth. I value the ability to be able to weave my job as a mother and my job as a birth worker together. My own experience as a birthing person and parent allows me to connect with my clients deeply and support them through their own beautiful journey with understanding.

Aside from birth, I love the beach, music, crafting, good food, and spending time with my kids and my husband of 15 years, Mark.

"Oh my goodness I can’t recommend Ashley enough. I’m an emotional new mom of a one month old and could blubber on for days about what an incredible doula and what special of a person Ashley is. For a little background, I planned to (and did) give birth in a hospital, had a smooth pregnancy, and still feel that having a doula in that scenario is an immeasurable asset. I, hands down, would not have had the birth experience that I did without her. I mean, sure I would have done it :), but her guidance, encouragement, advocacy , physical support, emotional support, confidence and love had me, my husband, and our little baby held and cared for in the most amazing way and gave me the strength and support I needed. The quality of the care she provides is truly indescribable. Not to mention, she’s the total package- She’s earthy, she’s knowledgeable, she’s nurturing, she’s a fierce friend you want in your corner, she’s funny and down to earth, and she’ll tell it like it is. She quickly feels like an old friend. I had the most positive experience with her and wish everyone had her by their side on such a monumental day."
