I Love Being A Mom

What I’ve seen from my many years in this business is that my clients want to know who I am as a person. They want to know what qualities make me a good Doula, including, how I interact with people and what my passions in life are. I believe that in answering these questions it will bring a closer bond with each of my clients.

To begin, I being a wife and mother. As a woman it’s the greatest satisfaction and passion in my life. When I hade my first born twenty years ago it changed my life completely. My son made me the woman I am; he made me strong and showed me the responsibilities of motherhood. The three years of breastfeeding gave me a strong connection with him and built incredible bonds that we still share today.
 


I am the mother of three beautiful boys, the first, Allen, whom I’ve already spoken of, is now 20 years old and is attending a university. He majors in Music and Sociology. Six years later my second son, Giovanni, was born. The first trimesters of the pregnancy went wonderfully, however, soon before my due date my mother became ill and died a week before I went into labor. His birth was in a way a renewing and remembrance of my mother's soul. This gave me the strength to move on. He is now 14, and enjoys sports and is very active. Nicholas is my baby; right now he’s 10 years old and lives a care free life, not worrying about the concerns of everyday life. He is my favorite to snuggle with at night, and I enjoy holding him in my arms and thinking of how much he is growing and how great it would be to be pregnant again.



Even though I am incapable, I dream of all the mothers who will experience these same joys in life with their children. I am so blessed to be able to share this experience with them through my work, standing there at the door on the day of their return after their labor just to reassure them that “it will be ok", and remind them that they are about to experience the greatest and best job in the whole world, and that is to be a mom.
