Office Manager & Patient Coordinator
HI! My name is Debra, I’m of European descent, my great grandparents immigrated to the US from Ireland. My passion in birth started when I was almost 40 and had a home birth with my son in 2009. I had the support of 2 doulas at my labor and delivery and I will NEVER forget that feeling. The feeling of support, comfort and trust. Because of the way I felt during my labor and delivery, I wanted to learn more and decided to embark on the journey of becoming a labor doula and soon thereafter a postpartum doula. Supporting women and families is an incredible honor.
My goals for my path are to continue working as Office Manager at Pure Births and continue to learn and grow with the business!
My family at home consist of my husband of 13 years, Dave, my 11 year old son, our kitty Cricket and our golden retriever Ty. What I love most about working at Pure Births is the tribe of women I work with! I really do love seeing the pregnant mamas and the newborns too!
In my free time you will find me organizing something at my house or watching a show on Netflix.
My favorite past time is spending time with my family and friends. My favorite birth/mothering quote is:
"If a woman doesn’t look like a goddess during labor, then someone isn’t treating her right."
What the world needs more of is PEACE and tacos! I wish every women knew they had choices in their pregnancy, labor and delivery. They can say no and no is a very powerful word.
