I believe in sacredness of coming into parenthood and want to protect it, so that it can unfold in an undisturbed way, as much as possible, and this includes pregnancy, birth, and the ever-so- vulnerable postpartum period. I also believe that the birthing person is the only one who has the authority to make decisions about their body and their baby because I know that those decision will be the best ones for them at that given moment. This leaves no space for judgment; only support and respect.

I was born into a family where birth was celebrated, honored, normalized and as kids we were invited into birth spaces by our elders. This I believe initiated my love and trust of birth, of birth givers and their babies, too. Eventually I had my own babies and experienced for myself how potent this time is and how it transformed me to my core. How it has influenced who I am, my health and my spirit in all ways, on all levels. My life's work has always been rooted in caring for families. First I worked as a project specialist to create and develop state-wide, quality child care for low income and working families, then later, a homeschool teacher and a nanny. Currently I am a full time Mama, a Pre/Postnatal Yoga Teacher, a Birth Educator and an Ayurvedic Postpartum Care Giver. I am passionate about working with pregnant and postpartum families and about the practice of yoga. I joined my two passions to create BellyFull Birth.
