Latched provides breastfeeding friendly physical therapy for babies and mamas. Many of us never put much thought into how we would feed our babies. However, for many babies and mamas (like my little one and me), breastfeeding can come with lots of new challenges. Some of these challenges may arise from: - Infant being overwhelmed with new environment (state regulation) - Movement restrictions during pregnancy - Difficult birth - Tethered oral tissues (such as lip and tongue ties) - Decreased range of motion (such as torticollis) - Strength imbalances - Postural changes - Increased tension or stiffness - Reflexive responses The good news, therapy can help address these concerns!

I am Shanna Hinrichs, and my story of community birth began over 20 years ago when I began supporting families as a doula, lactation consultant, and now midwife. I have known I was called to help women bring their babies earthside since I was a young child. I didn't know what that would look like, but I was fortunate to witness the intimate and precious home birth of a dear friend. That experience revealed my path as a birth worker and ignited my desire to serve women and their families in their most powerful and vulnerable moments. I am fulfilled by serving my incredible clients as their families grow. Attending births builds my trust over and over in women's bodies and their ability to transform and heal. I respect the responsibility of being a midwife and recognize the privilege of facilitating an experience that best supports my client's wishes. I believe that educated, informed choice is the best way for families to become empowered and make the best decisions for their pregnancy. That belief has afforded me the privilege to serve on the board of different cesarean awareness groups to help provide evidence-based information so families can make the appropriate choice for themselves and their current pregnancy. I am also a strong advocate for Vaginal Birth after Cesarean (VBAC) when it is the most appropriate choice. I was born and raised in Garland but have had the privilege to live in a few different states. I am married and have given birth to 9 children, each with their own distinct story. Having experienced 9 very different births and breastfeeding journeys, I have lots of hands-on personal experience to offer to you.​ When not engrossed in the birth world, I enjoy spending time with my husband, our 4 school-age kids still at home, and our dog and cats, as well as playing in the great outdoors, eating delicious food, and making our home in Rowlett as peaceful as a home with 4 kids (still living at home), a dog, and 2 cats can be. I would love the opportunity to chat with you to see if I would be the best midwife for you and your family. If we decide that I am not the best fit, I am more than happy to help you find the care provider you deserve as you travel this beautiful journey. ​​

Shanna delivered my third baby. She is an amazing and caring midwife! She is knowledgeable and takes the time to get to know you and your family. She always answered my questions with detail and evidence backed information. At my birth she was fantastic in helping my husband catch our baby and managing me when I had some difficulty immediately postpartum. She was a huge blessing in my postpartum and understands the importance of support in the postpartum.

Clem was so great to work with! She provided me with great knowledge and helped me find articles and Internet resources I did not know I had access to. She helped me ask the right questions to my providers. Clem was a constant support throughout pregnancy, birth and postpartum. She was always asking how I was doing (and truly wanted to know) and empowered me to advocate for myself in every way possible, and for that I am so thankful. Book her right now!!

Hello my name is Ariana! I'd describe my personality as kind-hearted, open-minded, and passionate. I love working with infants because I’m able to build special bonds with them, and watch them grow and reach new milestones. It's exciting when you can look back and see the wonderful impact you had on a baby’s life. I started working with children as a part-time nanny in 2016. My first job in childcare industry began in 2018 at Primrose. I have over 6 years of specialized experience with newborns, infants, and toddlers. I also have experience with all other ages throughout my time as a professional nanny and postpartum doula. In my spare time, I like to bake, cook, and watch the little ones for my friends and family! One thing you should know about me is that I absolutely love and adore children. I will be there to help you and your family as much as I can and treat your baby as if they were my own. Thank you in advance for this opportunity!

As a birth doula, i’m there to support, act as an advocate, educate, amplify voices, and serve as a coach to the mama and partner during the birthing time. As a postpartum doula, I’m there to nurture, educate, assess the needs of the mama or baby, refer to needed doctors or specialists, and support the family as they transition their life with a new baby.

Recent review

My husband and I delivered our first child November of 2022 with the help of Maya. Our family was truly blessed to have her as our doula. She met with us before delivering, supported us during delivery, and met with us after delivery. During pregnancy, Maya knew I wanted to breastfeed and sent me information on breastfeeding as well as a class. During delivery, Maya made sure my needs were heard and met. She made sure my voice did not go unheard and made both my health and my family’s health the number one priority. She helped to make my birth experience peaceful and amazing. I was terrified to deliver a child but Maya quickly made all those fears go away. We definitely plan to use Maya again and highly recommend her!
