full spectrum Doula Care
offering attuned companionship for life’s peak reproductive thresholds, such as birth, termination, and loss
Hello! I am now located in Nelson and I serve/support the West Kootenay area. Website update coming soon :)
About
Welcome! My name is Alana (she/her).
With awareness and gratitude, I acknowledge that I am a white settler living and working on the traditional, ancestral and unceded territory of the Sḵwx̱wú7mesh, Stó:lō and Səl̓ílwətaʔ/Selilwitulh and xʷməθkʷəy̓əm Nations.
I am a full spectrum doula, offering human to human support to people moving through the various shades of the reproductive spectrum; pregnancy, birth, miscarriage, abortion and postpartum. I would describe my practice as empathetic, clear, informed, intuitive and passionate. Through this work, I meet people where they are at and seek to support them in a holistic way that is unique to who they are and shaped to what they need.
Supporting people and families moving through transformational times has long been my calling. My practice is informed by my training and years of experience as a social worker as well as my own reproductive experiences.
Fox + Moon’s core values are inclusivity of all people, bodies and families, accessible service, and non-judgemental support and care. I am committed to my participation in the world of birth supporting dismantling systems of oppression. I do this by partnering with local community organizations to provide services without charge, offering sliding scale pricing available to lower-income, BIPOC and/or LGTBQ2S+ folks, and through allocating a percentage of monthly earnings to local initiatives supporting the reproductive and parental healthcare of BIPOC people and families.
It is such an honour to be invited into people’s transformational birth experiences. I am continuously blown away and inspired by people’s strength, resilience, softness and power as they move through the reproductive spectrum.

With Gratitude,
Alana

End of pregnancy support
An abortion, a miscarriage or an ending of a pregnancy is in its own way a birth experience. A person moving through such an experience deserves to be supported with compassionate care.
With this offering, I provide emotional & physical care, share information to aid informed decision making, provide nourishment and hold a safe space for you.
This offerings will look different for each family depending on their needs, experiences and choices. Some abortions and miscarriages happen at home and others may take place in a hospital. I will support you in either of these settings.
My offering is to meet you where you’re at and shape my offerings to you in a way that will be most supportive.
This offering is without charge.
