Shannon is a devoted wife and mother of 5 precious children. She has an ever growing passion for all things birth & childhood and spend the majority of her day homeschooling her children. Her own experiences in childbirth triggered a strong aspiration for all women to have an AMAZING birth and to be cared for during their most precious journey in life. She truly believes that with the right preparation and support, you CAN have an amazing birth.
If you would like to prepare for birth in a meaningful way, Shannon offers Comfort Measures classes once a month in Leonardtown, MD. This is a 3 hour class designed to give couples the tools they’ll need to relax and minimize pain during labor. She also offers in-depth comprehensive childbirth classes that can be catered to your individual birth plans and needs. Upcoming classes are listed HERE
Shannon has been a doula since early 2014 and is a Certified Birth Boot Camp Doula and Childbirth Instructor. She is experienced in natural, medicated, and cesarean birth. Whether you plan on giving birth in a hospital labor and delivery room, an operating room, or in a birth pool in your home, she is qualified to support you during your birth. Being a certified doula in Southern Maryland, she will make a phenomenal addition to YOUR birth team.
“During my training my instructor made a profound statement about what being a doula is like. She said, “Love the mother and the rest will follow.” It was so true. I believe that loving this mother during her most trying time is so important.” -Shannon
“A woman in birth is at once her most powerful, and most vulnerable. But any woman who has birthed unhindered understands that we are stronger than we know.” – Marcie Macari
