ABOUT

MEET YOUR BIRTH hype WOMAN. I’M SKYE - educator AND HOSPITAL birth DOULA.

I'm a birth doula, registered nurse, childbirth educator, and mother with over eight years of experience in the birth world. I've been present for hundreds of births, from speedy spontaneous labors to lengthy hospital inductions. My path began in clinical care, but what I witnessed over and over again was a gap: families walking into one of the biggest moments of their lives without enough clarity, continuity, or true advocacy.

As a doula, I bridge that gap. I bring both the clinical awareness of a nurse and the grounded presence of someone who's walked this path with compassion, humor, and heart. I've been the one holding space in the early morning hours, helping parents breathe through transition, advocate with confidence, and settle into those first quiet hours with their baby.

Birth isn't a medical event; it's the most transformative event of your life. And I'm here to help you feel rooted in yourself, connected to your choices, and ready to meet whatever comes. And can we talk about how exhausting it is to wade through all the birth advice out there? Everyone's got an opinion about what you should do, how you should feel, what makes you a 'good' mom. Honestly? Screw all that noise. You're already exactly what your baby needs & I’ll show you that.

HERE’S THE THING… I’M A mom’s mom

Want to breastfeed? Great. Want help researching formula options? I got you. Realizing you need to co-sleep after all? I'll guide you on how to do it safely. Planning an epidural from day one? Let's talk about timing and what to expect. Changed your mind about circumcision at the last minute? We'll work through the decision together. I've got your back, always. All I care about is that you feel educated enough to make the right decision for you and your family.

I don't follow a script. I meet you where you are: your goals, your learning style, your preferences, your fears. Every family I work with receives individualized care rooted in real conversation, practical guidance, and deep respect.

I believe:

  • The way you birth matters; not just for a day, but for a lifetime.

  • Birth is unpredictable, but preparation and presence make a difference.

  • Everyone deserves informed, inclusive, nonjudgmental care.

  • You don't need to fit any mold to be cared for well, you just need to be heard.

What sets me apart? My clinical background helps me navigate hospital systems with ease, while my doula work is heart-led and intuitive. I'm calm under pressure, confident in chaos, and committed to making sure you feel seen and truly heard. I’m not here to pretend birth is all rainbows and butterflies. But that’s exactly why you need someone in your corner who’s seen it all and won’t flinch when things get intense.
