Birth Doula. Postpartum Doula. Herbalist. Childbirth Educator. Placenta Encapsulation Specialist.
Whatever way birth happens, it is your rite of passage into motherhood, and that passage is to be celebrated. Natural childbirth is a passage, cesarean birth is a passage, and birth with an epidural is a passage to be celebrated. That passage cannot be taken away from you. Every mother’s birth experience is valid, and an act of courage.
My name is Jess Poulsen, and I am a mother of 5 sweet children and the surrogate mother to 2 beautiful little surro-babes! I am passionate about many things including breastfeeding, gentle and instinctual parenting, and empowering women to take charge of their bodies and their births. I am the owner and co-founder of this amazing collective established in 2014 and since then we have brought 2 amazing Doulas to join us! I am also the co-owner of the Full Circle Wellness Center in Brigham City that holds space for many birth and wellness related events.
I have been a dual certified Birth and Postpartum Doula through CAPPA and DONA since 2012 and have been an advocate of human rights and women’s rights (especially in the sacred experience of birth) for as long as I can remember. I started my journey into the birth worker world after the birth of my son. I realized during my not-so-patient-centered birth that having more Doulas in the area was MUCH needed. I later went on to have the most healing and empowering birth experience 2 years later that even further instilled this passion and fire for birth within my soul. Every single person deserves to feel the way I felt that day and as I Doula I make that my goal. Whatever your birth preferences are, YOU deserve to feel empowered and in the driver’s seat.
I believe birth can be an enjoyable, transcending, life-changing, and empowering experience. I believe birth is a safe physiological event, and usually not a medical emergency. I chose to become a doula to educate birthing people about their options and aid in making their birth experience a positive one. Trusting a client’s intuition and supporting their choices of where and how to give birth should be encouraged and embraced.
