Hi, I'm Tanya

Birth has been part of my story for a long time.

I’m a birth and postpartum doula, birth photographer, and mom of three.

My own three births were completely different — a Caesarean birth, a VBAC with an epidural, and a very fast unmedicated birth. Those experiences taught me something I’ve carried into every birth space since: there is no one right way to give birth.

For more than a decade, I’ve had the privilege of supporting over 80 families through hospital births, home births, inductions, epidurals, Caesareans, unmedicated births, and births that changed course completely from the original plan.

Birth and supporting families has become one of the great purposes of my life. There is something incredibly humbling about being invited into this space — witnessing a family change in an instant, holding steady when things feel overwhelming, and helping parents feel informed, heard and supported.

I believe birth is powerful and transformative. I believe deeply in women’s ability to birth, and I’m here for the epidural, the Caesarean, the induction, the home birth, the hospital birth and the change of plans. My role isn’t to decide what your birth should look like. It’s to help you understand your options, ask questions, trust yourself and make the choices that feel right for you.

I still carry the families I’ve supported with me. Their births have shaped the doula I am today, and after all these years, I still feel incredibly grateful every time a family chooses to invite me into their story.

Your birth. Your body. Your choices. Your way.

What you can expect from me

Continuous Presence

Partner Support

Ongoing Support

Your Birth, Your Choices

Steady, hands-on support through your labour and birth. I stay with you as things unfold, helping you feel supported, grounded and cared for.

I support your partner too - Dads need doulas too! I help them know how to comfort you, stay involved and feel confident in their role throughout your birth.

Support doesn't begin when labour starts. Unlimited text, phone and email support is included throughout your pregnancy - questions, worries, decisions, or simply when you need to talk something through

Natural, epidural, induction, Caesarean, home birth, hospital birth or a change of plans - I'm here to support the birth that's right for you.
