Hello! My name is Josie Willems

I am a Traditional Birth and Postpartum Doula

Welcome to my journey! Growing up on a farm in Wheatland County, Alberta, Canada, taught me the value of hard work and perseverance early on. My dream of becoming a birth worker may have seemed distant at times, but it became a reality when I discovered the impactful role of a doula. I signed up for the Birth Belongs to Women mentorship, learning through women is truely so important to me. Being present for the miraculous moment of birth is beyond words, and I take great pride in supporting women during such vulnerable times. I firmly believe that every woman deserves to be honoured and cared for, and I am dedicated to providing gentleness, kindness, and reassurance throughout the process. Birth is not just about the arrival of a new baby; it is equally about honouring the mother and her unique experience.

When I’m not attending births, I’m busy caring for my animals, including my goats and Texas Longhorn/Highland cattle. I cherish my time with my dogs, Mena and Major, and my calf, Violet. I also enjoy unwinding by the fire, painting, capturing beautiful moments through photography, or playing the piano.

My mission is to serve women as a sister and nurture them as a true friend in their incredible journey.

I am serving Strathmore and the greater Calgary area.
