I provide expecting families with emotional, physical, informational, and advocacy support through pregnancy, birth, and early postpartum.
My philosophy is that our pasts, presents, and futures are in each birth. My approach to support tends to the mind, body, and soul.
I am also a Newborn Care Specialist and I offer care and support to families with an infant (up to 12 months). My approach provides reassurance and perspective that will help you make informed decisions for your family.

Emotional Support: I will help you explore any fears and build your confidence to help you achieve the birth you desire. Upon retaining me, I am available for on-call support immediately.
Prenatal & Physical Comfort Support: We will meet to discuss your specific needs. I will share evidence-based resources to help you make informed decisions. We will also meet where I will teach physical comfort measures that will help you cope through the various stages of labor.
Labor/Birth Support: I will be physically present to support you and your partner for the birth of your baby. This support will include physical, emotional, and advocacy support.
Immediate Postpartum: I will not leave you immediately following birth. I will coach you through breastfeeding and will help coordinate nourishment to replenish you. My labor support service also includes a postpartum meeting 5-10 days following birth.
Newborn Care: We will meet to determine your specific needs and requirements. Some services include feeding support, help with the emotional and physical recovery after birth, assistance with newborn care, and soothing techniques.
