Meet Jenn A.

Jenn is a certified birth doula through DONA International who has experience with a broad spectrum of families from high risk pregnancies, induced labors, unmedicated births, twin pregnancies, IVF, diabetic pregnancy, IUGR babies, cesarean birth, and more. She believes strongly that all families should feel supported as they navigate this incredible and at times overwhelming journey.  She loves helping families navigate their many decisions by providing.unbiased and accurate information.

Jenn also is a strong support with nursing. She supported new mothers in lactation and worked as a peer counselor through WIC. She believes that mothers need to be nurtured as they become the nurturers. She loves supporting families while they adjust to their lives with their new baby or babies. 

Jenn, like many doulas found this path while navigating her first prenatal journey and she became passionate about all things pregnancy, birth, lactation, baby and child development. Jenn has always been passionate about learning and graduated from DePaul University in Chicago with her Bachelor’s of Science degree in Biology with a premed concentration.  At DePaul she studied infant gut development and its correlation to autoimmune disease and she continues to be a lifelong learner. 

When Jenn is not supporting families she loves spending time with her own two children.
