Hi! I’m Anna, mom of two, lover of nachos.

I’m also a full spectrum doula and a childbirth educator. It’s an honor to have been supporting pregnant folks and new families around the Bay Area since 2009.

I have a large family, and grew up surrounded by babies, and pregnant and postpartum families. I’ve always felt drawn to the magic of birth, so attending my first birth in 2009 felt like coming home.

After welcoming my own kids a few years later, I found a whole new respect and appreciation for the miraculous undertaking of growing, birthing, and parenting a child. We deserve to be surrounded by a trusted, kind, knowledgeable support system during this wild ride. You’ve got this, and I’m here to cheer you on!

Most days you’ll find me hanging out with my family: reading, hiking, biking, digging in the garden, reminding my kids to pick up after themselves, the usual. I’m passionate about positive communication, empowering birth experiences, minimizing my carbon footprint, equity, supportive parenting, high quality free public education for all, and gun violence prevention. I believe in the transformative power of community, and in showing up for others.

Send me a note at almahony@gmail.com and we can chat about the support you’re looking for your pregnancy and birth!
