Welcome, I'm Emily!
For over eight years, Iβve been supporting families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and early parenting β walking alongside them during one of the most tender and transformative seasons of life. Since beginning this work in 2017, Iβve supported families in North Bay and surrounding areas, and now I have relocated to proudly support families in the Muskoka region.
At Growing Together Doula Services, I provide compassionate, full spectrum doula support grounded in experience, education, and respect for each familyβs unique path. There is no one-size-fits-all approach here β I offer practical guidance and steady emotional support, meeting you where you are in both the joys and the challenges that come with growing a family.
Whether youβre adopting, navigating surrogacy, welcoming your first baby, or adding to your growing family, I will be by your side, offering the reassurance, support, and information you need to feel confident every step of the way.
Let's grow togetherβone moment at a time.
Doula support is rooted in presence, care, and connection.
Doulas offer steady, non-medical support through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and other reproductive and life transitions. This care may include emotional support, practical assistance, and clear, up-to-date information that helps families navigate change and make choices that feel aligned for them.
At Growing Together Doula Services, care is collaborative, non-judgmental, and centered on the needs of the whole family. The intention is simple: to ensure families feel informed, supported, and held through times of transition by walking alongside you as part of your village, without replacing medical care or taking over.

Our Promiseβ
Mission
To provide compassionate, inclusive, and informed support through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and all reproductive experiences, nurturing families to make confident choices that feel right for them.
Vision
To cultivate a supportive village where every family feels seen, informed, and held through all perinatal and reproductive experiences, fostering connection, healing, and community care.
Values
Informed choice, inclusivity, respect, and whole family support guide everything we do, alongside professional integrity and collaboration within our community.
In the spring of 2022, we launched the Growing Together Legacy Fund. This fund is supported by donations from past clients and community members who want to say thank you, pay it forward, and make doula services accessible to families in immediate need.
We especially use these funds to support families experiencing pregnancy or infant loss or financial difficulties. The Legacy Fund exists to put donations directly into the hands of families who need them most in our community β it does not support the operations of Growing Together Doula Services.
