Ashley Bertrand

Full Spectrum Doula

About Me

Hi, I'm Ashley! I'm a mother of two, a home daycare provider with over 12 years of experience caring for children and supporting families, and a trained birth doula. I'm passionate about helping parents feel informed, supported, and confident throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. This work is truly my calling.

Practice Philosophy

I believe it takes a village, and my goal is to help mother the mother. Every birth journey is unique, and there's no one "right" way to give birth, so I meet each family with warmth, compassion, and zero judgment.

My role is to provide evidence-based information, emotional support, and a calm, reassuring presence, so you can make the decisions that feel right for your family. Whether your plans stay the same or change along the way, I'll support you without judgment every step of the way.

Overall, my goal is for you to feel seen, heard, and empowered, informed, supported, and confident, knowing you have a strong, steady support system right beside you.
