Meet Marie!
Certified Birth Doula
Certified Body Ready Method Pro, Body Ready Birth Teacher, VBAC Certified, Trained in Spinning Babies®
I have had a lifelong passion for pregnancy, childbirth, and the newborn phase. I spent much of my life caring for and working with children, but becoming a doula sparked a flame inside of me. I realized that my natural ability to bring a calming presence, ease anxiety, and help others feel grounded could become part of something incredibly meaningful. It is a privilege and an honor to support women through one of life’s most transformative journeys.
For the past 10 years, I have supported families as a doula while continuing to deepen my knowledge of pregnancy, birth, and the human body. My training includes ProDoula and DONA, along with certifications as a Body Ready Method Pro and Body Ready Birth Teacher, training in Spinning Babies®, and VBAC certification. I am also a certified massage therapist through the New England Institute of Whole Health.
My education and experience have shaped an approach to doula care that considers the whole person—physically, mentally, and spiritually. I lean into my Body Ready Method training and massage therapy education to help clients prepare their bodies for birth, ease pregnancy discomforts, and create space for their baby’s journey through labor. Just as importantly, I help clients prepare their minds by creating a sense of calm, encouraging relaxation, easing anxiety, and helping them feel grounded and connected to themselves throughout the process.
These trainings, combined with my natural gifts and years of experience, are what I lean into when supporting each client through pregnancy and birth. My goal is to meet you where you are, help you feel at ease in your body and mind, and provide a steady, reassuring presence as you move through your own unique birth journey.
