ABOUT ME
My name is Aileen Larson and my pronouns are she/her. I have been working with pregnant and postpartum people for over seven years. I love everything about pregnancy, birth, the postpartum time, breastfeeding (also called nursing or chestfeeding by some parents), babywearing, and most importantly - babies! Before having children I was a 7th-grade English teacher. I love teaching and watching people learn and grow. As a professional birth doula, I have the privilege of seeing families add new members. It’s the best job I’ve ever had!
I serve the Twin Cites Metro Area. I’ve been a certified Birth Doula for 7 years and have attended over 250 births. I am also a certified Hypnobabies Childbirth Hypnosis Instructor, a placenta encapsulator, and postpartum doula. I have served on the board of the Childbirth Collective and I’m a Co-Leader of Twin Cities Attachment Parenting International. In my personal life, I am a mother to 3 wonderful children and wife to T. J. - the most supportive husband a doula could ever have! I had my first baby in the hospital and had homebirths with my second and third child. I used the Hypnobabies Childbirth Hypnosis program with my third birth & had a wonderful experience.
I believe that childbirth is a normal physiologic process and I deeply trust birth and the wisdom of birthing people. I provide emotional and physical support as well as evidence-based information to my clients. I support my clients to have the birth that THEY want to have. I would be honored to meet with you to discuss your birthing goals.
