Welcome to BeFriend Fertility Support
Learn to befriend your body
​
I’m a non-medical professional in training that provides women with emotional and physical support throughout their fertility journeys. As a Fertility Doula, all I want is to be there for you. Let’s get started.
About Me
Hello! My name is Shannon and I'm a future social worker and prospective Certified Fertility Doula completing my training at Doula Canada. Several years ago when I was trying to conceive my second child I knew something wasn't right. I eventually saw a specialist who confirmed I was experiencing secondary infertility.
​
While I was struggling to conceive I often found myself wishing for a support community. No one around me truly understood what it was like to experience infertility, let alone secondary infertility. I turned online for support and although I did find some comfort, it lacked the personal connection I longed for.
​
That's where a Fertility Support Practitioner (FSP) comes in! As a FSP I am here to guide, listen and support you as you learn to befriend your body. I can help you as you prepare to naturally conceive or prevent pregnancy, go through assisted reproductive technology and/or cope with the grief of infertility. Please have a look through my list of services (COMING SOON) and if you're ready, choose the one that's right for you. If you don't see what you're looking for here, let's connect! I would love to hear more about the kind of support you are looking for and we can customize your support plan together. I look forward to hearing from you!

Shannon helped me get to know my body, listened to my frustrations and guided me through questions to ask my doctor. She taught me to trust in my knowledge of myself and soon enough I was pregnant with my first baby! Thank you for all your support Shannon!
