Michi Arguedas

Hello, my name is Michi Arguedas and I am a certified full spectrum doula and traditional postpartum healing practitioner. I offer prenatal education, labor & birth support, post birth/ post loss healing care, and virtual consulting services. I seek to foster a safe and welcoming environment for our future generations and for the birthing people and families helping to cultivate new life. As a birthing person, you carry the instinctual wisdom and ability to have an empowering and healing birth and postpartum experience, and I am here to contribute grounding, consistent, and nurturing care that supports you in that process. I specialize in (but am not limited to) supporting families who identify as queer, trans, multi-cultural, mixed-race, immigrant, single parent, and/or polyamorous.
