Get Started!About Me
My name is Rebecca Genck, and I’d love to help you through your children’s birth!
I have had 7 pregnancies, and 6 children.
My mission is to empower and support mothers and fathers throughout their incredible journey into parenthood.
My Background
I have been fascinated by the miracle of childbirth and the profound impact it has on families for as long as I can remember. My journey as a doula began with my first birth in 2014. It was a beautiful experience, I delivered a water-birth that time, and the midwife was very impressed with how well I handled the labor process. Since then many of my friends and family have come to me for advice, and I always enjoyed giving it to them. Each experience has only deepened my commitment to this invaluable profession.
My Philosophy
My approach to childbirth support is rooted in compassion, respect, and helping you discover the best option for you. I firmly believe that every birthing experience is unique and should be tailored to the individual needs and desires of the mother and her partner. My goal is to provide unwavering emotional, physical, and informational support, ensuring that you feel empowered, heard, and confident as you navigate the path to parenthood.
