Courtney Jenkins
Certified Doula (DTC)
There is no better support for a family in labour than a professional trained in the ways of birth. This has been proven time and time again throughout history and trial and error in the birthing world. At the end of the day, no matter what your dream birth looks like- support is key to carry out this plan. Births with adequate support, education and a right to make in informed decisions are almost always, faster, less painful and require less medical interventions.
That is where I come in, I have been passionate about reproductive abilities, pregnancies, birth and babies since a very young age. Since then I have dedicated my life to creating awareness for women and birthing individuals all around the world and their right to birth how they want to birth.
I am a certified professional Labour and Birth Doula, Childbirth Educator and Postpartum Doula with Doula Canada, for over a decade. Recently I added Infant Massage Instructor through IAIM (International Association of Infant Massage) to this growing list of education and offerings. I was a nanny and family support prior to this work, let's just say nurturing is in my blood. I have a passion for supporting all families and making their pregnancy and birthing experience a positive growing opportunity to remember for years to come. I believe that a woman or birthing individual who is supported and nurtured throughout their birth will be a more confident mother/parent during postpartum months and the rest of their lives.

I would like to thank you for the honour of considering me as part of your birthing support team/village. I promise to honour and cherish every moment of our journey together.
