Liz has been working with families for as long as she can remember, in social work settings, as a nanny, and volunteering in children’s ministries and programs. Becoming a parent pushed her into the doula world: after struggling initially with her own postpartum experience, she felt deeply that there had to be a better way. Passionate about parenthood, Liz believes each family has a huge responsibility in raising a child and feels that no one should have to bear that weight alone.

Liz aims to bring value and joy to every postpartum family she works for as a way to redeem her own experience and make the world better. She finds her children to be her greatest teachers.

Liz is compassionate, calm and funny. When she’s not working with families, she can be found cooking, hiking, reading, listening to podcasts, and relaxing! She loves exploring her new surroundings in beautiful Oregon with her husband and two children.
