Lene's Birth Services
ABOUT ME
I always knew I wanted to be in a profession that involved babies. At 14, I found myself immersed in the TLC program "A Baby Story". I realized that the way a woman birthed was not just a process but an art form. Fast forward to college, where an assignment to watch the documentary "Business of Being Born ", catapulted me into the future. I saw that women had a more positive birth experience with the support of a doula. This led me to become DONA Trained. I'm also certified in AHA Heartsaver First-Aid, CPR & AED. Besides births, I'm a passionate avid book reader. I love to curl up with a great book with my dog + cat. And solve Wheel A Fortune puzzles before the contestants.
