And even though you are SO EXCITED about becoming a parent, you want a birth doula by your side....
You don't want to spend your evenings scrolling social media and finding confusing advice... instead, you'd rather have evidence-base information, and make your own decisions about what is best for you!
Yeah, me too.
But Even Though You Know You've Got This, You're Thinking...
- You don't know where to find REAL ANSWERS to your pregnancy and birth questions when there is so much information out there, and you don't even know where to start.
- That other people will judge you for your pregnancy and birth decisions, not "going it alone," or being the "supermom" that doesn't need help.
- Whether postpartum will be the *nightmare* everyone is telling you it will be.
- How you are going to afford EVERYTHING baby needs, what you need, and still pay for groceries and rent.
Trust me. So many people are asking the same things.
But I'm here to tell you that you don't have to be stressed

Want a Sneak Peek Inside Supportive Starts?
Monthly Cohort Calls: Valued at $897
Each month for your pregnancy, you'll join me (Kelsey!) and your cohort (2-3 people due the same month) to chat about all things pregnancy and birth.
You can read all the books in the world, but if you don't have PEOPLE on this journey with you, you won't know where to turn when things get hard. If you build open, non-judgemental relationships, you will always have people to rely on.
We'll answer those questions keeping you up at night, and you'll learn how to:
- Make birth and postpartum decisions that are fully aligned with your head, heart, and gut.
- Advocate for yourself, even when you feel at your most powerless.
- How to plan for the unexpected (which happens a lot in birth!)
And you'll build great friendships along the way.
Prenatal and Birth Support: Valued at $1500
Around the 34th week of your pregnancy, I'll make sure you feel confident navigating your birth. You'll get a 1:1 two hour in-person visit, where we can talk about your personal birth preferences, birthing positions, and pain management. I'll walk you step-by-step through the possibilities, so you can decide what is best for you.
From your 38th week of pregnancy onwards, I will be on 24/7 call for your birth. Night or day, when you go into labour, I will be there. No matter what happens, or what you decide, I'll:
- Provide comfort measures to make your birth as physically, emotionally, and mentally comfortable as possible.
- Support your partner in supporting you!
- Be the person in the room that is 100% there for you, judgement-free.
- Advocate for your birth preferences, or create the space for you to advocate for yourself.
Plus... once your baby arrives, I'll stay with you until you are settled together, helping with the first feeds or whatever you may need.
Postpartum Support: Valued at $597
It wouldn't be life-changing if I didn't walk you through every single phase!
Once you are home with your baby, I'll help you settle into your new life, from debriefing the birth with you, to helping with diapering, feeding, and basic infant care during a three-hour in-person visit.
And of course, I'll help you get some sleep if that's what you really need.
Get excited, though because your cohort will still be around, each with their own lessons and learning to share!
We will do three MORE monthly cohort calls postpartum. Because this is all about being in it together. And the time we need each other the most is after the birth.
Ready to meet your Doula?
Hey! I'm Kelsey-- a doula, birth researcher, and totally birth dork.
I'm the founder of Collective Care, and the mastermind behind this Pregnancy and Birth Support Program.
I moved to Sweden in 2017 to do birth research... and it changed my entire life. I saw first-hand what a HUGE DIFFERENCE it makes for women to have community support throughout ALL of their birthing journey-- pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. So I quit my "real job" in 2023 to be a birth doula full time.
I literally wake up excited because I get to spend EVERYDAY supporting women to have comfortable births, and make the tough birth and postpartum decisions... AND I'M GOING TO GUIDE YOU THROUGH DOING IT TOO!
I promise there will be no details left out. You and me? We're bestie now. You get all my juicy birth, postpartum, and parenting secrets.
Know you can be the best mom in the world AND follow your dreams at the same time... AND when you join Supportive Starts, you'll get there so much faster than you ever imagined.
