Emily Cracknell (She/Her)

Birth Doula, Licensed Phlebotomist, Essential Oil Specialist

Hello! My name is Emily and I am a trained Birth Doula finishing up my certification through DONA. I am passionate about empowering Mothers and their families to achieve the pregnancy and birth they desire with the education and support they deserve. I specialize in essential oil use, and also offer in-home phlebotomy services to your advantage. I have been inspired by the journey to birth since I was a child. Since then, I have been in love with these sacred experiences and made a goal to dedicate myself to birth work. I hope to help celebrate your victories, big and small, educate with evidence based research, and support, equip, and encourage you during these memorable moments.

Sheryl Gross (She/Her)

Mom, Doula, IBCLC

My name is Sheryl Gross.  My favorite role ever was mother to my 2 beautiful daughters who are now grown women.  Their births inspired me to be a support to other families in their journeys.  After years of helping friends with their babies, I became a Doula in 2016 and then an IBCLC in 2019 so I could use my passion to help other families.
