welcome, friends!
I’M OLIVIA
THE FACE SMILING BACK AT YOU BEHIND THE CAMERA, THE GENTLE REMINDER OF YOUR STRENGTH AND THE GIVER OF HIP SQUEEZES AND HUGS
I have been documenting births, babies and families since 2015. This is what sparked my love and passion for birth work. There is just something so special about being invited into someones birth space and the most vulnerable moments of their lives.I have been a doula since 2019 and a student midwife since 2025.
I am a mother to 4 precious boys, Eli, Joseph, Michael and Asher who is in heaven. My boys are homeschooled which allows us so much flexibility and family time. When I'm not in the office or at a birth, you can find me at Disneyland, camping or exploring with my boys!

YOU INTEND TO GIVE BIRTH, YOUR EXPERIENCE WILL IMPACT YOUR EMOTIONS, YOUR MIND, YOUR BODY, AND YOUR SPIRIT FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE’

A DOULA
What is
A doula is a trained professional who provides continuous physical, emotional and educational support to families before during and after childbirth. My role is to help moms advocate and feel confident in their birth choices, offer pain management techniques, provide reassurance, and provide evidence based information. Doulas help bridge the gap in care. Studies show that having a doula reduces the need for pain medication, fewer interventions and provides an overall better birth experience.
There is just something so special about witnessing a baby come earth side and supporting families through such a transformative period in their lives. I believe in normal physiological birth and honoring the birth process. I love getting to meet new babies but most of all I love supporting families and helping moms feel empowered throughout their birth experience.
