Hi. I'm Abby Sumbler.

I'm a Certified Doula, Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator,
and a Certified Lactation Counselor.

My Mission:

To provide support and education for birthing people to reach their birth goals.

Why I am a doula:

I am a doula because I've had great doulas. The doulas with the birth of my first child were supportive during a long pregnancy and labor. They reminded me of my own inner strength and helped me in a way no one else could. 

The birth of my second child was by an unplanned C-section. I was glad my doula could be with me in recovery while my husband went with our son to the NICU. 

Preparation is key:

Practicing breathing techniques and other comfort measures, writing a great Birth Preference Plan, using Spinning Babies techniques to help align baby in the pelvis. All of these things are important and I am happy to help my clients prepare for the birth they want to have and answer any other questions that may come up.

I love watching families grow and parents meet their babies!
