My name is Ariel (she/her) and I am a full spectrum doula. This means I support people traversing childbearing continuum including pre-conception, pregnancy, birth, and pregnancy loss.
I am passionate about pregnancy and birth physiology, and supporting folks who are choosing to remember and re-claim their innate wisdom and capabilities to birth intuitively. As much as I love babies, I am here for the mothers and birthing beings! Witnessing their transformation and re-birth truly fills my cup.
I am a mother to three incredible children. My journey to birth work started 10 years ago when my first child was born. I began on a lifelong path to learning and deeping my trust in birth. I went on to have 2 more births, at home surrounded by family. Stepping more strongly into my power with each birth. My 3rd birth was a swift, wild and deeply transformative freebirth, which taught me so much about undisturbed, instinctive birth, and the innate knowing of birthing people.
Other than becoming a mother, birthwork has been my greatest teacher. It has literally shaped my beliefs, politics and worldview. It has impacted me in every way possible. Alongside mothering, birthwork is my life’s work.
When not supporting birthing families, I can be found dancing in the kitchen with my kids, walking in nature, or expanding my craft with study and mentorship.
If you are curious to learn about and fully experience the complexities, the joys, the challenges, the depths, the transformations, and the coming undone of yourself that is BIRTH - you are my people!
If you are feeling aligned with my offering, please connect with me! It would be my honour to walk beside you throughout your pregnancy and birth journey.

Hi, I'm
Ariel
Your birth. Your way.
Birth is a sacred initiation.
For you, into motherhood/parenthood.
For your baby, initiating them to life on earth.
How you birth and experience your birth matters!
Within you is the innate wisdom of your body and deep knowing of what you desire for your pregnancy and birth experience. The childbearing year is transformative and will lay the foundation for your parenting journey. Create a birth team and environment that supports your vision for your birth and holds deep trust in the body’s innate birthing physiology. I specialize in supporting families who desire a non-medicalized birth experience, in the comfort of their home and guided by their body’s intuition. I am here for you!
Book me early. We will have more time to connect, to feel informed and build your confidence as you navigate your pregnancy. I will be there with you throughout your journey, keeping you nourished, heard and supported.
