I believe every birth is right. There is no single “right” way to give birth, and there is no one-size-fits-all path into parenthood. Your body, your baby, your family, and your choices are yours. My role is not to tell you how to birth. My role is to walk beside you—to listen, to support, to offer information, to help you explore your options, and to hold space for you as your birth unfolds. Whether your birth looks exactly as you imagined or takes an unexpected turn, you deserve to feel respected, informed, supported, and heard.

With 16+ years experience and attendance of 800+ births in various roles and environments, I am well experienced in providing midwifery care during the entire childbearing cycle. In addition to working with 4,000+ families across the preconception, prenatal, postpartum and newborn periods, I have been honored to have experience in a variety of settings including four countries, five birth centers, and home births scattered in urban and rural settings. The fabric of these experiences has helped me develop a keen adeptness for working with a diverse range of clientele. Over the years, my focus and passion within midwifery has expanded to include many intersections across reproductive justice. I have specific interests in trauma informed care, mental wellbeing during the perinatal period, and research and education on minimizing obstetric trauma. I strongly adhere to the belief and practice that obstetric trauma is minimized when informed decision making and communication is utilized to ensure respectful care is being provided and client autonomy remains intact. I carry with me the deep rooted belief that birth is a sacred and transformative event that belongs to the birthing family and that it will usually progress the best when left as undisturbed as possible. I maintain high standards for myself and my affiliates to show up with open eyes, minds and hearts to support you in the unique way you desire as you welcome your newest family member into your arms.

Hi, I’m Kenedie! Wife & mom to three, lifelong Alaskan, & follower of Jesus! My journey to sleep consulting began with my first born. As a first time mom, I fully expected the sleep deprivation that comes with a newborn. What I did not see coming was the anxiety & postpartum depression that the sleep deprivation would bring! Everyone kept telling me that Researching and learning how to improve my baby’s sleep was life giving and it led me to getting my certification in pediatric sleep consulting in July of 2023. Now while I am homeschooling and changing diapers, I am also supporting families in their journey to finding sustainable sleep habits and routines for their family in a way that feels good in their heart. Thank you for being here! I can’t wait to help your family find your path to better rest.
