About me

Hi! I’m a homeschooling mom to five, a childbirth and breastfeeding educator, a birth and postpartum doula, a placenta encapsulator, and a breastmilk jewelry creator. I support all births and all birth plans, but I specialize in avoiding interventions through prep & education, calming anxious parents, and providing more support than the typical.
