Vernon families don't have many experienced doulas to choose from, and fewer still with 400+ births behind them. I've supported births at Vernon Jubilee Hospital and in Vernon homes for years, and one of my most treasured birth stories is a Vernon home birth I both supported and photographed.
Because I'm genuinely on call from 38 weeks, with a limited number of families each month, distance has never kept me from a birth. We'll build a clear early-labour plan together, so by the time you're ready for hands-on support, I'm already by your side.

- Home birth support across Vernon, Coldstream & Lake Country
- Two prenatal visits + 24/7 access throughout pregnancy
- Immediate postpartum care, two home visits, six weeks of support
- Optional: award-winning birth photography by the same trusted person

“It is an absolute treasure to have a positive birth story, it's something you'll revisit for the rest of your life and Krista orchestrated the perfect birth for our son - we will never forget our time together!!”Maddie Devlin· doula + birth photography
“Okay, where do I even start?? Krista was our doula/birth photographer for our second baby, last December. Hiring Krista was truly the best decision I could have made. She quickly became part of our family and my only regret is not having Krista be apart of the journey with our first.”Morgan McDonald· doula + birth photography
“I can't recommend Krista enough. If you're looking for a talented and compassionate doula or photographer, you found her.”Tyson Kiertucki· doula + birth photography
