Find a Parent Coach Near Me in Rio Rancho, NM

I am Whitney and pregnancy and motherhood have changed me forever in a million beautiful ways. After years of knowing I wanted to be a healer, I earned a bachelor's degree in Biology from the University of New Mexico with the original intention of going to medical school afterwards. I became disenchanted with the medical field and then became a yoga teacher and yoga studio owner as I was searching for how to fulfill my calling in integrity. Birth work finally found me after I became a mother myself and this has become my focus! Within the same year of giving birth, I became a certified doula. I am a lifelong learner who is continuing independent midwifery studies and who is in the middle of Birthkeeping school with Whapio of La Matrona. I have much to offer in my service including with yoga, meditation, essential oils, herbal remedies, homeopathy, and deep anatomical understanding. The biggest thing I want to help women with is learning how to dream big when it comes to their labors and then giving women the tools to make that dream become a bit more possible as a birth coach, educator, and doula/Birthkeeper. I recently had a very blissful labor journey with my second baby and I can't wait to help other women find similarly blissful/orgasmic/ecstatic births of their own!
