Welcome! I believe true preparation for birth takes place in the body and the heart, not in the mind – and am passionate about supporting embodied experiences for expecting families.

When I was first pregnant with my son Sawyer, I struggled to find childbirth education that resonated with me. It seemed, like many realms in modern-day society, the world of birth work was oversaturated with information and polarized into many extremes.

Fortunately, I found my way through a surprise pregnancy, an unmedicated hospital birth, and two pregnancy losses by connecting with like-hearted wise women who shared my values and in some cases, challenged my views. It is in these connections and conversations that I have evolved as a birth worker, and as a birthing person myself. It was their authentic, personal and deeply caring support, and how helpful it was to me, that continues to inspire my work today.

Ultimately, when it came time for my own labor and birth, it wasn’t all the information that I had learned that got me through. It was a combination of instinct, of wisdom so many women had shared with me, of surrender. However, what allowed me to surrender, and tune into my intuition, was the deep work that I had done to prepare: emotional, spiritual, relation, and physical.

As a doula and childbirth educator, that is the type of support I aim to offer people I work with: embodied preparation for conception, pregnancy, birth and postpartum, along with heart-centered support for pregnancy loss and miscarriage.
