Meet the Doula + Lactation Consultant

Owner, Certified Birth and Post Partum Doula, Lactation Consultant Student.

Eli had a birthing experience with her first, and a prenatal journey with her second that pushed her to ensure others would never have to go through the same. With extensive education as a postpartum doula, Eli continued their education around lactation consulting, prenatal care, and herbal care. Eli is a strong believer that you are the Captain of your care, and she is just a resource for you to tap into, offering support and guidance.

When thinking about what is important to Eli in this transition to parenthood, Eli gravitated back to her experiences with their first doula. Working with Kerrie McDonald and Sabia Wade was a breath of fresh air compared to many of the experiences Eli has had with others. Looking at their backgrounds, and the current programming available, it made sense to Eli to take both the Lactation Consulting and Full Spectrum Doula program at BADT—Sabia's school. Eli has also attended a postpartum and birth doula program with Kate Wallace in RI.

As a former medic and ER Tech, Eli comes to the table with a broad background to support parents. Whether parents are looking for support in pregnancy to prepare for birth, and postpartum, day, or overnight care in postpartum, or nutrition support for the family in postpartum, Eli has a well-rounded background to care for families during these complex journeys. A strong believer that there is counter-advice to everything, Eli is here to support parents to feel strong and confident in their parenting.

Currently, Eli is covered through Carrot for doula services and is looking forward to getting covered through Husky and Tricare in 2026.
