Hi There!

I’m Rue, your full-specrum doula, rooted in care and frounded in legacy. Wherever you are in your perinatal journey, you’re welcome here

At Nurture Legacy Doula Services, my goal is to prepare you for birth with confidence, protect your birthing experience with care, and propel your postpartum journey with compassion—honoring your choices throughout your perinatal journey.

My mission is to provide support that is rooted in care, grounded in compassion, and guided by evidence-informed practice, ensuring you feel seen, supported, and empowered every step of the way—with humility, honoring that you are the expert of your own body, your baby, and your story.

As a mother of three, I bring not only professional expertise, but lived experience. My own journey into motherhood has been shaped by moments of joy and uncertainty, courage and conviction—and at times, loss. I understand the duality that can exist in this season of life, and I hold space for it all. Through this, I have learned the importance of “deciding to decide”—to make informed, intentional choices and to find peace in those decisions, whatever they may be.

I hold a Master of Public Health (MPH) from the University of California, Berkeley, and I am a prenatal health educator, a Certified Lactation Counselor, and a trauma-informed nutrition educator. This multidisciplinary foundation enables me to support you holistically by integrating public health knowledge, nutrition, and infant feeding guidance into your care.

My approach is centered on creating a safe, supportive space where you feel seen, heard, and empowered. Whether you are preparing for birth, navigating postpartum, or facing unexpected turns along the way, I am here to walk alongside you—with knowledge, compassion, and unwavering support.

“When a mother is nurtured today, her child, her family, and her legacy are strengthened  for tomorrow.”
