Driftwood Doula - Liz Burns & Quynne Merrill

Liz (she/her) is a mother, writer and doula. With a background in psychology and previous work in addictions, HR, and mindfulness, she has a unique toolkit for prenatal, perinatal and postnatal care. She is fascinated by each unique experience of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, and by the cultural pressures put on new parents during these times. She loves to cultivate deep awareness and understanding of each unique parenthood journey, and is passionate about supporting people in understanding and writing their birth stories. An attentive listener, insightful thinker, and warm hugger, Liz adores the profound connections she gains with families.

Quynne discovered a passion for pregnancy, childbirth, and nurturing new families at a very young age. Even as a child of eight, she found herself enamoured by the midwives who cared for her pregnant mother. These early experiences ignited a deep-seated desire to support others through the journey of birth and postpartum care.  Quynne brings a nurturing, vibrant, and versatile approach to pregnancy, birth & postpartum support.

We offer discounted rates for those for whom there are financial barriers to accessing care. Please reach out, we will work with your needs.

Hayley Ryerson

Hi, I’m Hayley Ryerson, a labour and birth doula at Sage Sister Birth. My service focuses on facilitating informed choice through my prenatal education sessions and supporting birth physiology during labour and birth. My services include Sage Method prenatal education sessions, professional labour & birth support, and postpartum doula care. My work with clients is to help them move towards and trhough birth feeling supported, seen, heard and respected during this important life event.

I provide evidence-based, in-the-moment, up-to-date care in the birthing room and in pre/post natals. My style could be described as empathetic, responsibe, and assertive. “Hayley is a kind and gentle soul who cares deeply about her clients. She will listen to your needs and stand up for what you desire for the birth”—Amanda M.

When I am not attending births, I enjoy being in water, talking with friends, playing my fiddle and dining out.
Let’s talk! I offer a free 1 hour consultation, schedule a chat here.
