Hey there, my name is Katie Rancer. You may see my face throughout your pregnancy so I’d love to give you some insight into who I am! I am a wife, a mother to two beautiful boys, a doula, a student midwife and daughter of Christ. I enjoy gardening, baking, working out, cooking and attending all the baby birth day parties! My love for birth came after my second baby was born. My experience was traumatic and I called in a friend mid labor who acted as a stand in doula. She made the biggest positive impact that day despite the circumstances going on around me. I knew right away I wanted to nurture, empower and advocate for other mothers the way she loved on me. My son’s birth story took me to such a dark place for weeks and through confusion and turning to God asking “why?” He revealed his plan for me. My birth story turned from sadness to a proud testimony and lit the fire for passion I have today. My goal for all mothers is to leave their birth, no matter the unexpected turns or circumstances, to feel held and supported through every step of the way. I know God has prepared me to do this holy work, holding his daughters with care as they bring their babies into their arms. Thank you for trusting me and I look forward to serving you. If we never get the pleasure of meeting, know that we are all connected through him and motherhood….and you were built for this.
