About me

I am a mother of three and I have delivered twice in  Finland and ones in Colorado, USA.  I am Master of Engineering, Licentiate of Science(Technology) and PhD student. I have been working as a researcher prior becoming a doula and childbirth educator.

In the States I got interested in different ways to give birth and how much we can influence the event. As a DONA International certified Birth Doula, DONA trained postpartum doula and Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator LCCE.

I have served customers from the USA, Australia, Africa and from Russia. It is my pleasure to help you in your journey to becoming the mother of this child.
