Hello
My name is Katrina Tessier.
I'm a certified doula through MACFE & certified HypnoDoula through HypnoBabies.
I've been passionate about birth since having my own daughter in 2014.
When giving birth in Victoria, BC, I felt lucky that my one and only birth went (mostly) as planned. I had the support of a midwife & doula, along with my husband. I saw how much a doula supported not only myself but my partner, and it inspired me to offer other families the same support.
My goal is to support you through birth so you can look back on it as a positive, and empowering experience. That you can feel heard, prepared, and in control of what will likely be one the most memorable days of your life.
I will always support your birth plan from an unbiased point of view, no matter what choices you make in your birth. My goal is to let you know you have choices, not pressure you into any of them. From an unmedicated home-birth to a medicated hospital birth, and everything in-between, I'm here to help you.
My training with HypnoBabies will let me show you how a mindset shift can create a physical shift, and when we work to clear out our fears, the results can be beautiful. I believe our thoughts shape our reality and when we can think and speak of birth without fear, judgement, & uncertainty, it can enhance the birthing experience.
I've supported births in both Winnipeg hospitals & Selkirk hospital.
I'll work with you for home births, birth centre births, or any Winnipeg & surrounding area hospital births.
