My name is Melissa Ball. I am the proud mother of three children and I have a passion for childbirth and a strong interest in peer support for new moms and families. I obtained a Bachelor of Arts in English in conjuction with Mass Communications from Carleton University in 2004. I am actively studying to become a certified breastfeeding counsellor and have created and host Bosom Buddies, a free breastfeeding support group held monthly. I am also a founder and President for the Fort McMurray Doula Association (FMDA). For 6 years now I have been helping Canadian parents across the nation on an online database, now I am helping Fort McMurray parents in person and by telephone support. I am glad to help make a difference.
