About

Meet Sharlene ………

After having two amazing children my career path changed. Realizing the complexities many of us face with lack of nearby or available family for support, my goal became to find a way to help new families thrive with the transition of becoming new parents. It is an important and often raw time where having support proves to make a positive impact on the entire family. I honor this journey and enjoy empowering new families with confidence and skills to flourish in first three months of infant life, often called the fourth trimester.

Upon learning what a Postpartum Doula provides, I signed up for training and went throught the process to become a Certified Postpartum Doula with CAPPA (Childbirth and Postpartum Professional Association). Since that time , I have become fully immersed in the birthing community. I continue to learn and expand my knowledge through continuing education as well as community involvement. This way, I am confident and informed which allows me to provide the best care for the families I work with. Along with additional specific Postpartum trainings, I am CPR infant and adult certified.

My specialty is being a Postpartum Doula. It is my calling, it’s all I do and what I do best. When hired by a family, they are my priority. I generally take on one client at a time so 100% attention can be given to their needs.
