About me

The fullness of my life has been centered around children and maternal care and learning about herbs and how they support a natural lifestyle. I have been a childcare provider, prenatal to youth (special needs included for years past 18 years of age), for over 30 years. My decision to become a doula, and eventually to become a midwife, has been in the works throughout my life. I have been influenced by other doulas and midwives from the East and West Coast, with a predominance of this influence happening when I was in North Carolina. My mission is to ensure that mothers, and mothers-to-be have the resources, knowledge, and care needed to ensure the healthy births of their children, as well as knowledge of how to care for their newborns and older children. I have experience as a nutritional specialist (chef), well-baby care, well-Mama care, and family care and pre-and post-birth dynamics.
