Danielle

Hi! I’m Danielle and it’s a pleasure to be your Mama Coach and provide you with support and guidance through this transition and journey.

As a high-risk labor and delivery nurse for over 7 years, my biggest wish would be to have the opportunity to prepare my patients for what to expect BEFORE their arrival to the hospital.

My philosophy is that when you know what to expect you can focus on the important things instead of having fears or anxieties about giving birth and navigating parenthood. Being your Mama Coach allows me to extend my care beyond just baby’s arrival, to prenatal and postpartum support, and even better allows me to connect with my clients for more than just a 12 hour shift.

My goal is to have you feeling confident, excited, and as ready as possible for this beautiful, wonderful, adventure.

Frequently Asked Questions

Good question!  We are called The Mama Coach because years ago, when Carrie’s first boy was very small, she often wondered out loud to herself, “Where is my Mama Coach?” and “I need a Mama Coach!”.  Carrie searched and searched for qualified support and realized there was a need for qualified support for new families. We recognize that our name can give the impression that we only serve moms, but we will continue to work and learn to ensure our messaging is clear that all people are welcome here. Parents carry a heavy load, and do it with grace.  All parents deserve support, and The Mama Coach is the answer you’ve been searching for.  

We do not just support moms — we help ALL people.  All are welcome here, and we are committed to providing you with quality support, no matter your gender or family dynamic.  As we learned in nursing school, your family is who YOU say they are.

This is a common question.  As a Registered Nurse, having merely one method does not align with how we were trained in College/University to utilize the nursing process.

The Nursing Process is defined as, a “systematic approach to care using the fundamental principles of critical thinking, client-centered approaches to treatment, goal-oriented tasks, evidence-based practice (EDP) recommendations, and nursing intuition.  Holistic and scientific postulates are integrated to provide the basis for compassionate, quality-based care” (*1).  

Simply put, I will assess your child using my nursing training to determine the best way to help your family reach their goals, walking beside you all the way.  You can choose me with confidence, knowing you have picked a qualified resource to support your family’s journey.

Yes.  As a Registered Nurse, I have years of training on where to access credible guidelines and information. All of our programming is based on extensive research from credible sources.

As a Registered Nurses, it is my professional obligation to manage client records and confidential information properly.  I use an Electronic Medical Record (EMR) that is compliant throughout North America.  Even though we share the same brand, we are all independent Registered Nurses with our own private practices. As such, we each have our own EMR that is private and secure. We do not share EMR or client information between one another without consent.

Often they are — the answer largely depends on where you live and what your private insurance covers.  For example, in the United States services can be covered through HSA or FSAs in Canada, some services are covered as well under ‘Lactation’, ‘Registered Nurse Services’ or ‘Health Spending Accounts’.
