I launched the Midwest Mama in 2019 have been happily supporting families ever since! My mission is to provide the individualized support and education all families deserve so that you can feel empowered in your choices with pregnancy, birth, and beyond. When I’m not attending a birthday party or birth community event, you can usually find me with my family! My husband and I have two boys (ages 7 and 3) and a new addition on the way. We love exploring all of the activities our city has to offer, thrifting, and scoping out new coffee shops.

I strive to provide information about pregnancy, birth, lactation, newborn care, and the post-partum recovery so that you can determine your personal wishes for your birth journey. As you develop your preferences, I'll assist in the formation of a birth plan that we will use to advocate for your wishes. During birth, I offer emotional and physical support, help with non-pharmacological pain management, act as a birth coach, and advocate for your values in medical situations. With my extensive background in healthcare, I am able to interpret situations and jargon, so that you can understand factors involved and make truly informed decisions for your best birth experience . I have experience in home- and hospital-based birth environments , vaginal and cesarean, low- and high-risk situations. I'm ready to support YOU and your unique wishes as you navigate your childbearing year.
