Chelsea Johnson, IBCLC, CD(DONA), SBD

A woman's experience during birth changes her forever.  That's why I believe in supporting women throughout their journey to motherhood.  Education, information and support help ensure a woman feels that she is an active participant in her birth.  It's my job, as a doula, to help a woman and her family navigate the sometimes unpredictable nature of birth with confidence.   
 
My journey to motherhood was a catalyst to my current work as a birth doula.  Before giving birth to my son in 2017, my husband and I experienced infertility and miscarriages.  These experiences initiated my appreciation of the pregnancy and birth process.  After a wonderful experience with my own midwifery and doula care, I knew I wanted to assist women and their partners prenatally, during birth and postpartum.  I was trained as a doula in 2018 and feel it an honor to be able to assist women during this transformative and vulnerable experience.  

In addition to my work as a birth doula, I am a Lactation Consultant (IBCLC).  Many women have the intent to breastfeed and it is important that we build networks of support for new mothers in the way of lactation assistance.  I am excited to be able to empower women to reach their birth and breastfeeding goals!  

I currently live in South Fayette with my son, daughter and my husband of 7 years.  Birth aside, my recipe for a perfect day is simple: coffee, hockey and baking.
