Birth Guide || Scientist || Childbirth Educator Most families at this stage are looking to clarify their needs, unearth exactly what aligned support looks like FOR THEM, find a practitioner that they can trust, that is experienced, invested in their journey, and can offer what they're seeking. So many birthworkers, care options, and information to navigate : after supporting families for eight years, I know that as parents you want to move through these decisions with intention and from an informed place, I'm here to meet you where you are. I support families through a biology based, nervous system aware approach to birth that honors the body’s innate design. My focus is custom and natural support through the phases of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. • My path into birth work was shaped in part by a background in environmental science, where I learned to observe and trust complex, self-regulating systems. Over time, that way of seeing deepened into a clear calling toward birth : a space where that same respect for the body’s intelligence and design feels deeply alive and meaningful. This calling led me to become a certified birth practitioner. My clinical midwifery training and more holistic experience with breath and bodywork, herbs and homeopathy, birth energetics and physiology, all blends together to support women that want autonomous, natural care while feeling witnessed, guided when needed. Over the past eight years of attending births, in home and hospital settings, I have come to trust the body’s capacity when it is supported with presence, patience, and the right conditions. My role as your birth guide is to offer attuned support, helping you stay connected to your body, your choices, and the unfolding experience beyond labor, but through pregnancy and postpartum. I believe the best way to minimize interventions and complications is through prevention as labor unfolds, and in pregnancy by preparing holistically with a focus on your well being, integrating practices and lifestyle shifts to support you in birth and motherhood. My approach is responsive rather than directive, creating space for your instincts and your body to lead. I work with a small number of families at a time, allowing for genuine relationship, continuity of care, and presence from pregnancy through the early phases of postpartum. Families who feel drawn to my work are often seeking a deeper understanding of how their body functions in birth, and a kind of support that respects both the physical and emotional landscape of the experience.
