informed support

THROUGH PREGNANCY + CHILDBIRTH

I am a certified doula, childbirth educator, and birth photographer. What you really need to know is how much I love creating an empowering birth environment. I believe you are capable of making informed choices for you, your baby and your unique situation. I’ll support you though the entire process, inform you and cheer you on when you need it most. I want to arm you with the tools and knowledge you need to confidently birth in the way that is best for you and your baby.

What kind of support do you need?

Information? I can fill your cup with all the evidence-based information it can hold.
Physical? I’ll teach you all the best comfort measures and when the time comes, I’ll give you counter pressure and hold your hand.
Emotional? You are powerful, Mama! Believe it!

I’m so glad you’re here.

I provide labor doula support, childbirth education classes, and birth photography to families in Hickory, NC and surrounding areas.  This is more than a job to me. It’s an honor.  The birth space is sacred and there is nothing more powerful than a woman bringing her baby into her arms. I will always be grateful for the opportunity to support you and to document these moments.

I wish I could give more than 5 stars. I interviewed two other doulas before choosing Liza; I am so glad I waited for the right person because she has been INVALUABLE to my whole birth experience. Best decision I could have made and the best money I’ve ever spent!!! I literally can’t imagine what my pregnancy, labor, birth and even postpartum would have been like without her.
