The Beginning of The Birth Chronicles

Hi, I’m so glad you found this post. This isn’t my first time writing for a blog. In fact, I’ve written on other blogs, and I used to run my own personal blog. Bu this is my first blog post written for The Birth Chronicles.

I’m typing this while my husband gets dinner ready for our family (and it’s chili night so I have to type fast and keep this short). Tomorrow, January 1st, 2022, I launch this website. I have spent minutes during naps and hours after bedtime building this website. I poured over every link and photo and detail I’m putting out in this tiny corner of the internet. Because this is it.

This is what sets my soul on fire. This is what reminds me I’m a whole person. This website, an extension of my work as a doula, an extension of myself, is the beginning to how you (yes, you reading this), meets me. And hopefully this meeting goes over well.

Hopefully, whether you’re reading this on your phone in the busy-ness of your day, or on your computer when your house is finally asleep, you feel the passion I have for what I do. Doula work, childbirth education, supporting families through their fertility journeys, births, postpartum, and life in the chaos of parenthood: it’s what I am great at. It’s what brings me joy. So much of my happiness comes from my family, and I hope that through this work you see yourself and your family being supported by me.

As you scroll through, I hope the testimonials give you a taste of the lifelong friendships I form with my clients, because I truly care. I hope you can see from my credentials how much I love researching and learning and finding solutions. I hope you see by all the things I’ve been featured in how open I am an how widespread the things I want to accomplish in this space reach.

There is so much I want to say. But I have to stop writing like I’m running out of time (Hamilton fans, are you here?) because my daughter is calling me for dinner, and I know she’s ten minutes away from covering herself in chili.

Thank you for being here. I hope you stick around and like, follow, share, but most importantly, connect with me some how.

With love,

Kayla
