About Oonagh

Oonagh is originally from Ireland and has been living in the Boston area for over 20 years. She completed her training as a doula through Doulas of North America (DONA) and is a Certified Birth Doula. Oonagh has two teenage sons, and during birth, she wished she had a Doula’s expertise and support; she wanted more information and guidance but didn’t know where to turn. Since then, she has always wanted to help women feeling similar worries and anxieties during birth.

Oonagh is the youngest of 5 children and grew up surrounded by large Irish families. Before becoming a doula, Oonagh worked in the skincare industry for over ten years. Empowering women to look and feel their best is one of the main inspirations why she became a doula, where she can leverage those skills in a more nurturing setting. Oonagh believes she can take her experience and use it to enable birthing experiences filled with compassion, caring, and understanding.

Oonagh has a passion for helping women in any life stage, especially as they bring new life into the world – whether through emotional support, information, physical support, guided meditation, relaxation techniques, or birthing positions. Oonagh has assisted with over 20 births and is comfortable supporting all types of births, She’ll bring creative, motivating, and kind energy to help guide a woman in their journey into motherhood.

Everyone deserves support and encouragement during pregnancy and birth. One of Oonagh’s passions is to make the world a better place by making birth education and support more accessible, regardless of race, sexual preference/identity, and religion. Oonagh is planning on further education in high-risk pregnancies. She is a firm believer in Spinning Babies and currently is finishing her Lamaze Certified Childbirth Educator (LCCE) course.

Oonagh’s outside interests include spending quality time with her husband and her two boys, travel, reading, hiking, biking, and barre.
