"You are constructing your own reality with the choices you make … or don’t make.  If you really want a healthy pregnancy and joyful birth, and you truly understand that you are the one in control, then you must examine what you have or haven’t done so far to create the outcome you want.”
~Kim Wildner

Doula Services


​You are expecting a new baby! How exciting, scary, life-changing and beautiful! Your life is changing- get ready for the ride of your life!
I provide hands-on support tailored to each individual client's needs and desires for their birth. Share your goals for your birth with me at your free consultation!
I have more than 12 years of experience helping mothers with a wide variety of births: homebirth, birthing center births, hospital births, belly births, epidurals, and VBACs (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean). As a Registered Nurse and Certified Doula, I offer many clients peace of mind in knowing that I am medically trained, but yet have learned many alternative ways of helping my clients handle pain as well as deal with variations using natural non-medical means in many situations, to help my clients avoid unwanted interventions as much as possible.

Craniosacral Therapy

If you have never heard of craniosacral therapy, you are in for a treat! It is an extremely light-touch body work that helps to free up restrictions throughout the body, allowing the craniosacral fluid to move more freely. It has been found to help with a myriad of symptoms including: headaches and migraines, back and neck pain, attention deficit symptoms, brain fog, joint pain, jaw pain and much more! Karen is currently open to treating any adult (you do not need to be pregnant to book an appointment) using Dr. Upledger's 10-Step Protocol. If you would like to book an appointment, click the book now button. Doula clients also have the option of enjoying the deep relaxation of a Craniosacral Therapy Treatment during your postpartum home visit with Karen!
