birth doula & birth photographer
weaving together the birth you deserve
serving Lexington, KY
Louisville, KY
and the surrounding areas
welcome!
Hi, I'm Elaine, a doula and birth photographer!
This is my third year supporting women and I am so grateful to have served over fifty families in that time! I support clients in Lexington, Louisville, Frankfort, Georgetown, Versailles, Richmond... and every other little town or city in Central Kentucky and Southern Indiana.
Some of my passions include:
- walking beside women in their first pregnancies as they journey from maidens to mothers
- redemptive second births
- helping clients achieve their victorious VBACS
- supporting peaceful and family-centered homebirths
- low-intervention hospital births
- not-your-typical inductions
My goal is to weave myself into your "village" so that you and your family feel completely comfortable with me and encouraged by me. When I had my first baby nine years ago, I was clueless about the process of birth and had a lonely, hard postpartum. This experience is the driving force behind what I want to accomplish now: I make sure that every family I support feels loved, cared for, informed, and prepared for the magical, mysterious ride that birth is.
If you are considering a doula for yourself or a loved one, please take your time to look around and reach out so we can get to know each other. We are about to embark on an unforgettable journey together!
