Über 👋

Hey, I'm Jes.

A fullspectrum doula working in Berlin for the past 8 years. I came to this work through a passion for bodily autonomy and a love for working with new parents.

I am a huge nerd for everything birth and think it is one of the coolest things in this world.

In 2023, I've begun supporting births with my doula bestie (Keatyn Jayne of Birth and Beyond Berlin) and we have really become an incredible team together.

I also run a monthly Queer Family Building Meetup and am involved in a network of Queer birthworkers in Berlin.

Pregnancy and Birth with Doula Partner Keatyn (Birth and Beyond Berlin): €2,677.50

  • One complimentary consultation - Getting to know your doulas at first can be really helpful to see if we are a great fit for one another.

  • Five prenatal visits (2 hours each) - During these visits we take time to get to know each other and learn how we can best support you. We'll work together to build your preferences for birth and address questions about interventions, hospital/home birth/birth center protocol, and the physiology of labor and birth as we go. We demonstrate and practice comfort measures and positions for labor with you (and your partner), and discuss how we'll work as a team both at home and at your birth place. We also go in depth about feeding, newborn care, sleep, and many other postpartum topics.

  • Email, text, phone support - From the time we sign our agreement to our postpartum visits, we are available to answer questions and give support via email, text or phone calls.

  • Continuous labor support - From 38 - 42 weeks, we are on call for your labor. Either Keatyn or Jes will join you when you need and offer:

Qualifikationen 🏅

Unsere Guides geben ihre Qualifikationen und Zertifizierungen an, damit wir ihre fachliche Expertise überprüfen können.

I have been working as a full spectrum doula (pregnancy, birth, postpartum, adoption, miscarriage, and abortion) since 2015 when I did my original training with DONA International.

Since then, I've worked with over 80 pregnant people through their fertility journeys.

I've come to know the birth system in Berlin very well and have supported families from all over the world. My passion is working with people from marginalized backgrounds.

I also have a Bachelors in Fine Arts in Photography and offer family photography.
