& I believe birth is far more than welcoming a child into the world. Every birth carries transformation: a death & rebirth of self, identity, relationships, & the life that existed before. My philosophy is rooted in the knowing that birth is not a medical event, but a rite of passage, a ceremony, & a spiritual initiation. The way a woman is held during the crossing of this portal matters deeply.

As a doula, I focus on supporting you through pregnancy, birth, postpartum… Not only through the meeting of your baby, but in the meeting of your new self.

My approach is for women who desire motherhood without losing themselves.

Motherhood can shift the relationship you have with your body, your identity, your community, your sexuality, & your sense of self. My role is to hold space for all of it so you can move through this initiation feeling supported, empowered, & still connected to who you are. Because again, you are not just giving birth, you are becoming & I will meet you exactly where you are.

I offer hands-on emotional, physical & spiritual care infused in both modern perinatal care & traditional birth wisdom gathered through my experiences as a midwife assistant working in a birth center here in Canada, but also through my learnings with traditional midwives in places such as the bush of Tanzania, the mountains of Guatemala, the lush of Brazil & beyond.

My presence is centered on autonomy, trust, & helping you feel confident in the choices that feel right for you.

My approach

Intuitive

I trust the wisdom that already lives within you. My role is not to tell you what to do, but to help you tune into your own inner knowing through deep listening, reflection, & personalized guidance. Every birth journey is unique, and I honour what feels true for you.

Sensual

For me, sensuality is presence in the body. It is about reconnecting with sensation, pleasure, intuition, & the natural rhythms of life. During pregnancy, birth, & postpartum, I encourage somatic practices that cultivate body awareness, softness, & trust in your body's innate intelligence.

Nourishing

I believe food is one of the most powerful medicine. Through warming, nutrient-dense meals, healing broths, herbal support, & practical nourishment guidance, I help mothers replenish their bodies, support recovery, & feel deeply cared for during this transformative season.

  • FUN FACTS ABOUT ME

  • When I told my parents in 2023 that I wanted to step in a doula training, my father was speechless. He shared with me that my great-grandmother, & the women before her, were midwives and herbalists in Mali, Africa. I had NO idea. This work is more than a passion, it is generational.

  • I was born & raised in Montreal, Canada from immigrant parents. My mother is Portuguese, while my father’s roots weave through Mali, Haiti, Guadeloupe, & beyond. I have absolutely no roots from Kenya… My parents just loved the name!

  • At 21 years old, I moved to Lisbon, Portugal knowing absolutely nobody (my family is from Madeira Island, so I knew nobody on the main land). What was supposed to be a two-week trip turned into two beautiful years of growth, freedom, & transformation.

  • I’m a proud nud!st, & experiencing nud!ty in safe, non-s3xual environments surrounded by women deeply transformed my relationship with my body. Being in community with people who embraced their natural bodies helped me reconnect with my own femininity, confidence, sensuality, & sense of freedom.

  • My favorite color is yellow, but honestly, it’s more of an obsession. Yellow feels like warmth, sunlight, softness, spiciness, joy, & aliveness all at once.
