Mila will be taking a pause from birth support as of September 2026.

Hi, I’m Mila (she/her) nd I’m so glad you’re here! I made Canada my home in 2016 after spending my twenties travelling the world and living in several different countries. I found my way to Nelson while 30 weeks pregnant and quickly fell in love with the community, the land, and the people — and knew this was where I wanted to stay.

I’m a full-spectrum doula, offering support as a fertility doula, childbirth educator, birth and postpartum doula, and as a caring companion for folks navigating miscarriage, pregnancy loss, or abortion. Supporting women and gender-diverse people is a deep passion of mine, and I’m committed to providing care that is inclusive, affirming, and rooted in respect for all identities and lived experiences.

While my birth support offerings are currently limited, my greatest focus and passion is supporting people who are terminating a pregnancy, for any reason. I am committed to upholding bodily autonomy and supporting women and people with internal reproductive organs in having full agency over their bodies and decisions. I believe abortion and pregnancy termination must remain legal, accessible, and free from stigma, and that everyone deserves compassionate, non-judgmental care — to feel safe, informed, and supported in their choices.

Fertility support is another area I’m deeply passionate about. As a fertility doula, I support people in understanding their bodies, getting pregnant, learning fertility awareness methods, and exploring birth control options. 

My path into this work was shaped by my own pregnancy and the birth of my daughter in 2023, which ended in an unexpected belly birth. That experience sparked a desire to support others through pivotal, vulnerable, and transformative moments in their lives.

I completed my full-spectrum doula training with Doula School International and went on to found Kootenay Womb Wisdom. I later joined forces with Shania to create the Nelson Doula Collective, with the shared goal of expanding access to care and building stronger, more connected support for our community.

Above all, my role is to support you in making the decisions that feel right for you and your family. Your experience is uniquely yours, and I’m here to meet you with care, respect, and compassion every step of the way.

I am also approved under the Doulas for Aboriginal Families Grant Program in BC.
