Your Personal Library
(For doula clients only, those lucky ducks!)

When I was pregnant, I was a reader.  Anything I could get my hands on regarding birth, pregnancy, healthcare, early parenting, nutrition, and more - I wanted to take it all in.  Maybe you're a reader, too?  You are welcome to borrow books from my collection to enhance your understanding of what's happening and what's to come.
Spoiler alert: there has never been anything written that will actually prepare you; but, it's fun to pretend!
Disclaimer: These are books not written by me.  If they are in my collection it's because I found something useful in them, but that doesn't mean I endorse all content. Take what you like, leave what you don't.

Want to borrow? Email me what you'd like and we'll figure out how to get it into your hands.
