My Mission

Supporting women and their families during pregnancy, birth and postpartum in the beautiful Copper Country

Hello! I’m Anna,

owner and doula here at Keweenaw Doula Services.

Welcome to a supported birth, no matter which route you take.

I’m a mother, wife and passionate birth worker.

I was the pre-teen reading the encyclopedia to learn about pregnancy and birth. Now, many books later, I enjoy attending births as a doula, encapsulating placentas to give moms the best chance at a good postpartum, and even teaching childbirth education! I love to support families in any way I can during their journey. After 8 babies of my own, I know a few tips I love passing on, and how important it is to be supported during such a special and, can we just be real and say, challenging time.

I am located in the Upper Peninsula and serve Houghton & Keweenaw Counties.

 

Medicated. Unmedicated. C-Section. Water Birth.

Portage Hospital. Aspirus Keweenaw. Home Birth.

Obstetrician. Midwife.

No matter what birth you choose, I am here to support YOU.

Pregnancy & Birth Support.

I offer a variety of birth services including doula services and private childbirth education services to make sure you feel 100% supported during your journey. This is a beautiful process you’re in and I want to make sure you’re educated and feeling confident no matter which route you take.

I am located in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan and serve both Houghton & Keweenaw Counties.

Postpartum & Childbirth Classes.

I offer more than birth support, including postpartum planning and support and placenta encapsulation services! I would love to help you decide if either of these options are a great fit for you! Schedule a consultation, or head to services to learn more.

Fun Facts…

what are the benefits of having a doula on my team?

A study showed that those who had continuous labor support saw:

A decreased risk of cesarean by 39%

A 15% increase in the likelihood of a spontaneous vaginal birth

Shorter labors

Better APGAR scores for baby

And were more satisfied with their labor than those without continuous support.
