Hi, I'm Jes 

I'm Jes, a certified doula and passionate advocate for compassionate, individualized reproductive care.

I became a doula because I believe no one should have to walk through such significant moments feeling alone, unheard, or unsure of themselves.

Birth is incredibly personal. There isn't one perfect way to give birth, and there isn't one perfect way to become a parent. My job isn't to tell you what your experience should look like, it's to learn what matters to you and help you feel supported as you navigate it.

Why I Became a Doula

There is something incredibly meaningful about being invited into one of the most vulnerable and transformative moments of someone's life.

I love being the person who can help make a complicated moment feel a little less overwhelming.

Sometimes that looks like helping you prepare for labor and understand your options. Sometimes it's providing physical comfort during a difficult contraction. Sometimes it's reminding you to breathe, helping your partner know what to do, or simply sitting beside you when you need someone there.

And sometimes support means being there after the birth—when you're exhausted, overwhelmed, and learning how to care for a tiny new person while also trying to care for yourself.

I believe that support should never be one-size-fits-all.

My Approach to Birth

I want you to feel like an active participant in your own birth.

I'll listen to what you're hoping for, help you explore your options, and provide evidence-informed information so you can make decisions that feel right for you.

I don't come into your birth with an agenda for how it should unfold.

Whether you're planning an unmedicated birth, hoping for an epidural, preparing for a cesarean, or simply taking things one decision at a time, you deserve support without judgment.

My role is to be beside you—not above you.

Beyond Birth

My work as a full-spectrum doula also allows me to support people through experiences that don't always get talked about enough.

Pregnancy and birth can bring joy, uncertainty, grief, excitement, fear, and everything in between. I believe there is room for all of those feelings.

Whatever your journey looks like, you deserve someone who will meet you with compassion.

A Little More About Me

Outside of being a doula, I'm simply Jes.

I have a wife and two puppies who fill my life with joy. We live in Pittsburgh, PA, a part of Allegheny county. I am a firm beleiver in holistic care. I enjoy a little bit of herbalism here and there for myself and my chosen family. I enjoy therapeutic art and exploring different hobbies.

I'm someone who genuinely loves connecting with people, hearing their stories, and creating spaces where people feel comfortable being themselves.

I don't expect anyone in my space to be perfect, calm, or completely prepared for what's ahead of them.

You can show up nervous.
You can change your mind.
You can ask a million questions.
You can cry.
You can laugh.
You can be completely overwhelmed.

I'll meet you there and we will do this together.

Let's Get to Know Each Other

Choosing a doula is personal. You should feel comfortable with the person you're inviting into such an important experience.

If you think we might be a good fit, I'd love to hear from you.
