Emily Graf

Certified Full Spectrum Doula

She/Her

Emily is a DONA-trained and a Matrona-certified full spectrum doula, and she is a passionate advocate for family-centered birth! Through her training with Whapio Barlett and the Matrona, Emily gleaned deep teaching about the natural physiological processes of birth, as well as how to support birthing people through the different brain wave states accessed during labor. Emily brings an educational approach to her work, doing her best to ensure that clients receive the most up-to-date information about their options in pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Emily is passionate about including partners in birth planning so that they feel confident when it’s time to support. She has worked in hospitals, birth centers, and home birth settings around Boulder County and tailors her education and care to each client’s birthing location and to their vision for their birth. Emily is Reiki certified and is also a longtime student of shamanic healing ways, studying with teachers in the Mayan midwifery tradition, as well as in Peru and Colombia, and integrates these teachings into her work.

As a postpartum doula, Emily supports new parents with nourishing in-home cooking as well as holistic baby care and housework. She completed her postpartum doula training with Geneva Montano of Sacred Birth. Above all, Emily is committed to helping her clients have a positive, transformational birth experience, and a smooth and healing postpartum.
