Hi! Thanks for visiting our site.

Pam is an ALACE-trained birth doula practicing since 2006. She has lived in Cincinnati for over 30 years and has two children, a boy and a girl. She received her bachelor’s degree in business management from U.C. 2006 and has worked in the veterinary industry since 1998. She is treasurer and a founding member of Cincinnati Area Doula Society, as well as a board member of Ohio Families for Safe Birth. She is actively involved in the homebirth community, ICAN (International Cesarean Awareness Network) and La Leche League. She believes that very woman's pregnancy and birth are unique, but all women and couples deserve to understand all their options and receive evidence-based information with which to make confident decisions. She believes that, especially with support and encouragement, birth can be a journey to discovering who we are as women and a way to connect with our inner strength.

Lorie is a wife and mother who received her bachelor’s degree in mental health and human resources in 2004. She worked in the case management field until 2006 when she became a mother of a beautiful son birthed at home, during a complicated labor. This experience ignited her passion for natural childbirth and a woman’s right to have a safe and supported birth where and how she chooses. In 2009, she had a sweet baby girl water-birthed at home. Lorie attended the “to Labor” doula training in May of 2010.

Pam and Lorie began working together in 2011 to provide education and support to mothers and families during the childbearing year.
