Madison Birth Doula 

 

 

Hi! Im Margaret (she/her) — a certified birth doula in Madison, WI, a student midwife at Southwest Technical College, a devoted mother of three, and a passionate advocate for empowering birth experiences. My journey into birth work began the morning after my first son was born. That life-changing moment sparked a calling that’s only deepened with each birth I’ve supported.

 

Having received compassionate, empowering care during all three of my children’s births, I know firsthand how meaningful support can transform the birth experience. That care shaped who I am—and inspired me to become the person who now offers that support to others.

 

In addition to my doula practice, I’ve spent over 12 years working as an in-home caregiver in Madison, where I gained not only practical skills, but deep insight into the strength, resilience, and sacredness of the human experience. I grew up in a household where the cycles of life—birth and death—were openly talked about. My mom was both a childbirth educator and a hospice nurse, so our dinner table was a place where meaningful conversations were always welcomed.

 

As a birth doula serving Madison and surrounding Dane County areas, my mission is this- to help families feel informed, supported, and confident. Whether you’re planning a home birth, hospital birth, or birthing center experience, I follow your lead—supporting you and your partner(s) in ways that feel right for you. I also proudly support single parents and LGBTQ+ families with inclusive, nonjudgmental care. This is the way it should be! 

 

My goal is to increase your safety and enjoyment with your birth experience by helping you make empowered decisions, honoring your intuition, and ensuring your voice is heard. I believe deeply in the power of intentional, respectful support—because this is your birth, your body, and your baby.

 

A doula is someone who helps you feel safe, seen, and celebrated—someone who reminds you of how amazing and capable you truly are. The work I do is grounded in reverence for this life-changing transition. Every time I witness a child come into the world, I’m humbled by its power.

 

Parenthood transforms us, and it deserves to be honored with sacred attention.

 

When I’m not supporting families, you can find me parenting two incredible teens  and one vibrant 11-year-old. I spend weekends coaching club soccer, feeding the people I love, and sitting in the comfort of silence.
