I’m Lenore.
Expectant parents and new families have trusted me to prepare them for the transformative birth realm for almost a decade. In that time, I’ve been blessed to attend more than 300 births throughout Bay area homes, birth centers, and hospitals.
If you’re looking for a grounded, calm presence to support you, I’m here to accompany you through the phases of your pregnancy, birth and postpartum journey. I’ll provide evidence-based support techniques and heart-centered approaches to coping with the unexpected. I want nothing more than you feeling inspired to birth your way, with trust and love for your body and baby.
I invite you to scroll down to learn more about my approach and my offerings. I’m so glad you’re here.

Holistic Prenatal Care
A holistic approach to pregnancy and birth opens up space to connect the mind, body and spirit through this transformative experience. Your physical health, values and beliefs, relationships, emotional wellbeing, and spirituality all influence you and your baby. In turn, how you prepare can affect the tender, early weeks of postpartum.
We'll set birth intentions, practice relaxation techniques, comfort measures, reflect on the mindset you want to embody and share wellness modalities to personalize a plan just for you. One that reflects your preferences, celebrates your strength and ensures your physical and energetic needs are met.
Birth Support
At home, a birth center or hospital, the journey is a true labor of love.
Tending to Postpartum
What if you could manifest your dream postpartum experience? What are you most excited about? What nourishing foods do you imagine enjoying? How will you center your healing, your rest? Who can help with feeding your baby?
The weeks after birth ebb and flow with joy, love, connection, tears, and so much learning. While traditionally, new parents are held, nurtured and taken care of during this learning curve, our communities may be small or family may not be local. Together, we create a personalized postpartum plan for you and your partner that emphasizes healing, rest, nourishment and space to bond with your baby.

“From the moment I met Lenore, her energy was so calming I knew we had to have her be a part of our birth. We are eternally grateful she was our doula and would recommend her to anyone on their birth journey.”
