Angie Stenback is a professional doula, wellness specialist, pre- and post-partum fitness trainer and mother of 3. She also holds a Bachelor of Physical and Health Education and is currently receiving breast feeding training from the lactation consultants at the Toronto East General Hospital.

Having given birth naturally to 3 children in 3 different ways (breech, vacuum extraction and spontaneous delivery), Angie was inspired by the midwives who supported and encouraged her throughout each. She did sense in her husband, however, that there was an unfulfilled role, a feeling of helplessness. Thus, Angie became a doula to pass along this gift of love, comfort and encouragement to birthing women through their husbands and partners. Angie not only provides continuous emotional and physical support to the birthing woman but also assists partners in achieving their full potential in support of the mother.  

It is Angie's long term goal to one day join an organization to volunteer her services in a third world country.
