Postpartum Doula

Sacred Transitions Birth Services
sacredtransitionsbirths@gmail.com
 

Mallory lives in rural NE Indiana with her husband and three children. She can most often be found laughing with her family, being involved with her church, or learning way too many new skills and crafts at once. She has been a birth doula in the area since 2018. Her work as a doula has allowed her to walk with mothers through many different kinds of births. These experiences, together with her own journey through motherhood, have afforded her the opportunity to connect with a variety range of families in the postpartum space. Mallory believes that the postpartum timeframe should be revered as an intimate and pivotal experience for each family.

Mallory feels particularly passionate about providing support to families experiencing unique and difficult circumstances surrounding pregnancy and birth. She has personally experienced infertility, loss, and birth trauma. Additionally, she is the mother of a medically complex child. She believes these life experiences allow her to offer necessary support to families navigating circumstances they might not have been expecting. These challenges often affect the entire household, and she believes that additional support in navigating them is crucial. In fact, it is the postpartum support she received after her son’s birth that inspired her to offer postpartum services herself.
