Birth Companion Support
RobinsNest birth companion support are care providers who understand and trusts the process of birth who respects its physical and emotional aspects.  RobinsNest honors every womans sacred journey to motherhood with the goal to ensuring the birth experience that every couple desires.

Upon signing with RobinsNest, a one hour intitial consultation is conducted before a contract is signed so we can meet and decide if we are right for each other. This of course, is done in a public location at a point in which both of us can travel equal distances. You are under no obligation to hire me as your doula after this consultation. It is your choice to choose a birth companion/doula that is going to be the right match for you.
