Hey there, I'm Pooka, a birth doula and placenta encapsulator. Located in Lafayette, I’m deeply committed to supporting families in Boulder County and beyond. My approach to birth work is rooted in empathy, respect, and care. Every birthing person deserves to be heard, seen, and supported throughout their pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey.

I was inspired to become a birth doula after supporting my sister during the birth of my nephew. Witnessing her strength and the transformative power of birth left me with a deep sense of awe and appreciation for the birthing process. As a certified doula through Rocky Mountain Doula, I hold experience in supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum with a compassionate and authentic approach.

As a birth doula, my role is to provide unwavering support to families, offering evidence-based information, emotional care, and physical comfort measures. I believe that every birthing person has the right to make informed choices about their birth experience, and I am here to support them in making those choices. In addition to my birth doula services, I also offer placenta encapsulation and postpartum care.

Outside of my work as a doula, I find joy in gardening, live music, paddle-boarding, kayaking, and spending time with my partner and our fur babies. As someone who deeply cares about supporting families during this transformative time, I offer sliding scale options for those who may need financial assistance.

If you're looking for someone who will provide compassionate care and support during your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey, I would be honored to support you.
