Welcome!
My name is Magnolia, I'm so pleased to meet you!
​
You can call me Mags, Maggie, or Noli for short. I am a certified Montessori Assistant and a gratefully certifying full-spectrum holistic doula, supporting individuals and families on their unique journeys in fertility, birth, postpartum, and infant/pregnancy loss. What drives me is the belief that EVERYONE deserves a safe, supported, and sacred transition into parenthood, no matter their circumstances.
I believe your support team should:
- honour and advocate for your autonomy
- encourage your ability to give birth and be a parent
- help you make informed choices and protect your right to choose
- and provide evidence-based knowledge that you can trust and rely on.
The journey to parenthood unfolds differently for everyone, but I believe all families deserve, and can have, an empowering experience with the right support.
​
They say it takes a village, and I would be honoured to be part of yours!
Land Acknowledgment
I was raised in the mountains on the traditional Indigenous lands of both the Ktunaxa Kutenai and Sinixt Lakes Nations. I attended high school in the desert of Tk'emlúps te Secwépemc territory, on the unceded ancestral lands of the Secwépemc Nation. In my early adulthood I resided in the traditional territories of the Coast Salish, Nuu-Chah-Nulth, and Kwakwaka’wakw peoples. I now live in Mohkinstsis, in the heart of Treaty 7, on the traditional territories of the Niitsitapi from the Blackfoot Confederacy, including the Siksika, Piikani, Kainai, and Amskapi Piikani First Nations; the Îyârhe Nakoda of the Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Goodstoney First Nations; the Dene of the Tsuut’ina First Nation; and the Métis Nation of Alberta, Region 3.
To live, work, and play on Indigenous land and learn from my Indigenous community over the years has been an enriching privilege that I don't take for granted. I am humbled to serve my community through doula care, and my aim is to honour, acknowledge, and support the communities and traditional practices that came before me in doula care as well.
Inclusivity Statement
I believe in doula care for ALL walks of life, no matter your race, origin, colour, religion, age, gender identity or expression, sexual orientation, family structure or status, marital status, body type or size, ability or disability.
