Get to know your Birth of Life doula!
Hello! I am Aubrey McMillan and I own Birth of Life Doula Services. I have a passion for supporting families in an unbiased and nonjudgmental way as they go through the journey of pregnancy, childbirth, and early parenthood. I strive to provide my clients with up to date, evidence based information on the topics important to them. I get to know each and every client in order to best support their individual needs.
I started walking on my doula path during my first pregnancy. I have worked with families, caring for their children since my teenage years, but nothing quite hit me like this did. It was during my childbirth education class, I was consistently at the edge of my seat with excitement for what was to come. I knew at this point I wanted to become a childbirth educator.
After my daughter was born, my desire grew to encompass becoming a doula. I didn't hire a doula for my first birth and my experience did not go as planned. As things changed throughout my labor I tried to understand everything that was going on all while being exhausted and beyond hungry. I look back now and know that while my situation may not have been different with a doula, I would have felt more supported emotionally.
It was my experiences that lead me to becoming a doula and nothing has ever felt more right.
