About me

Hello! I pride myself on being a safe, non-judgmental, supportive space for all parents! My goal for birth is to help you create the plan you desire, by informing you of your rights, alternatives, and options. I support whatever birth you envision and advocate for your wishes. My goal for post partum is to help your body, mind, and soul heal from birth. I have a passion for helping you discover the parent YOU want to be, as well as provide support around the house all while helping you navidate through the changes of your new body! I am also a lactation specialist who has been nursing for 7+ years straight! This includes many dynamics! Working full time, staying home, nursing through pregnancy, and tandem nursing to name a few! Belly binding and placenta encapsulation are two of my other services that I enjoy! ❤️
