About me
Aloha! I'm Mapuana - wife, mother, caregiver, clinical massage therapist /26yrs, certified labor doula/18yrs and perinatal patient advocate.
I created The Mapuana Method: Doula & Wellness Care to support growing families with compassion, education, and hands on care. My approach is rooted in honesty, connection, and holding space for every kind of birth journey _ especially for first time parents who want a more natural, empowered experience. When I'm not supporting families, you'll find me at home in my garden, walking my dog or at a spa.
