Andrea’s Story:
Andrea is blessed with a large family and has the privilege of loving and doting on close to 30 nieces, nephews and other little ones. She’s always been around babies, seen her loved ones go through pregnancies and admired the process, but the doula seed was planted after she got to be more directly involved with one of her goddaughter's entrances into the world in 2020. She fell in love with the strength, the ebb and flow, the literal labor of love. She also saw how scary the unknowns and certain aspects of the journey can be and knew she wanted to help in some way. After a bit of research, she found what she wanted to be when she grew up! A doula!
Andrea began studying with Birth Arts International and the rest is history. In 2022 she decided to continue her education as a postnatal doula through Women’s Choice Perinatal. Along her doula journey, she’s gotten to build community with so many amazing birth workers, and joined The Reno Doula Co-op in 2023. Through the Doula Co-op, she’s excited to be involved in the Doula Access Program (DAP) at Renown, which allows doulas to be accessible in the hospital for people laboring who, for many reasons, may not otherwise be able to receive doula support.
She’s worked in caregiving capacities most of her adult life and feel she’s exactly where she needs to be. She believes everyone deserves a compassionate and loving birth experience. Through you-centric care and support, her goal is to be accessible and reach as many people as possible to help their birth experiences be the best they can be. Every person embarking on childbirth deserves to have someone in their corner, there for them no matter what, to guide and assist them in making educated choices about their pregnancy, birth experience and parenthood, and to remind them that they can trust the strength of their bodies and minds during this time. As a doula, she aims to bring compassionate, client-centered care and remind every client how empowered they are!
Outside of birth work, you can find her spending time with family, playing with the littles, grabbing coffee and walking the river with friends, or traveling whenever and wherever she can. She’s also a huge theater geek (you should see the one-man Hamilton show she puts on in her car) and Trekky nerd. She enjoys genuine honest connection and could talk for hours about what makes a person light up.
