In Harmony Doula
Perinatal support in harmony with you
Meet Your Doula,
Amanda Martin
I'm a mother, wife, sister, friend, singer, dancer, dreamer. Doula.
​
After my mother passed away in 2013 from an aggressive cancer, I started a quest in all aspects of my life to become a living legacy to her. That meant filling my life with things that bring me joy, encouraging connection with others, facilitating growth of love within me and for everyone around me.
​
My mother had many words of wisdom as a healing practitioner, massage therapist, spiritual counselor and devoted servant to those in need. The words that stayed with me the most are “how can I love you more?” This is my doula philosophy and is tattooed on my arm as a reminder to be the most compassionate, caring, kind and supportive version of myself. These are the qualities I strive for in all work that I do as a doula.
​
I feel privileged to be part of your newborn family's journey. I encourage you to follow your path to parenthood as you choose by providing non-judgmental guidance, empathetic listening, evidence-based information and referrals where needed.
​
I invite you to connect with me for a complimentary consultation. I look forward to getting to know you and your family.
​
Wishing you joy,
Amanda
