Hi, I’m Aura! I’m the founder of Your Lactation Journey—but more importantly, I’m a mom of four who’s been exactly where you are now. I’m a Registered Nurse, Nurse Practitioner, and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) with over 12 years of pediatric and lactation experience. My background includes working as a bedside RN in pediatric critical care (PICU & NICU) and as a pediatric nurse practitioner providing 1:1 lactation support in the clinic setting. Supporting breastfeeding families has always been at the heart of my work. As a mom of four—twins first, then two singletons 18 months apart—all born with tongue ties and short NICU stays, I understand firsthand the challenges, learning curves, and triumphs of breastfeeding. My own journey taught me that every feeding experience is unique, and sometimes it’s far from “natural” in the beginning. I believe every feeding journey is unique, and there’s no one “right” way—it’s about finding what works best for you and your baby. I’m here to support, teach, & embrace you in yours and your baby’s breastfeeding journey.

Aura has been amazing! She’s very reliable and so knowledgeable! I was able to meet with her prior to giving birth, where she prepared me for lactation at the hospital based on my goals. I was able to exclusively breastfeed because of her. She’s amazing and takes insurance!!!! Because of this she came to my house a few times. She’s amazing

**Please note, all my reviews are available on DoulaMatch.Net and my website linked at the bottom of this page** :) As a birth + postpartum doula, childbirth educator, infant-feeding + lactation specialist, and IBCLC in training, Andreina has served the growing families of Connecticut, New York, and New Jersey since 2014. Her passion for birth work, expectant families, and newborns has been prevalent since she was a child- watching television series like TLC’s A Baby Story, which chronicled different birthing experiences throughout the United States. It was this initial peek into the sphere of birth in America that made Andreina aware of the disconnection that society had to an event so preternatural and fundamentally inherent such as birth. In her pursuit of restoring the sense of confidence and capacity in all birthing people, Andreina trained under renowned DONA International Doula trainer Rina Rios, and was subsequently selected to join the year-long Manhattan Birth training and mentorship program, led by doula turned home birth midwife, Tanya Wills CNM. Learning under these knowledgeable and influential women, Andreina gained invaluable knowledge that complemented her natural passion and innate skills in supporting expecting and newly postpartum individuals. Such skills and passion were further honed during Andreina’s own 72 hour home birth experience where she and her husband welcomed their son in 2022. With a bachelor of science from Iona University and five years of experience as a skilled pediatric phlebotomist, Andreina’s approach to childbirth, lactation, and postpartum melds the best of western medicine with the best of tried and true holistic care for all of her clients.

Hi! I'm Kim, your local midwife. The story of how I came to be here in Utah, serving women through pregnancy and birth is an interesting one. My education consists of a Bachelor of Art in Sociology with an Emphasis in Ethnic Studies, a Juris Doctorate with Emphasis in Criminal Law, and Certification as a Professional Midwife. My calling has always been to serve people in a humble, practical and pragmatic way. Creating positive change in people' s lives in the most efficient way possible. Over the years, this guiding principle has taken me on many adventures through different areas of life, different communities, and around the world. I grew up the child of two Air Force parents (Lawrence Hardeman and Cynthia Wright), traveling back and forth to Japan over my early years and around the US as I got older. During my settled years, I lived in Kansas City, Missouri. Unbeknownst to me, a distant ancestor of mine was one of the first to settle that area before Missouri was even a state. Peter Hardeman Burnett, a lawyer who defended Joseph Smith while detained in the Liberty Jail, adventurer who led 1000 pioneers on the Oregon Trail, and eventually became the first governor of California. During my college years I became a mother for the first time and with the help of a fantastic nurse midwife I endured 19 hours of pitocin induction with no epidural. I was so young and naive at the time I didn't understand the true blessing she was in my life. That revelation hit me during my second birth, where a midwife wasn't available. That was the hardest pregnancy, the most life threatening delivery, and the most depressing postpartum experience of them all. I waited five years before deciding I was ready for another and this time I studied, I scoured my city for resources, and I found another amazing midwife. That birth was magical. I created an experience with the support of my midwife, my husband, my mother and mother in law that healed every traumatized part of my soul. My fourth birth was even better because I had a home birth midwife that time who helped me feel empowered and confident beyond what I had achieved in my prior pregnancies. This is when I decided that a law degree is nice, but midwifery lights my FIRE! I started my training soon after my son's birth and haven't looked back since. Beginning a career as a midwife during the height of a worldwide pandemic, when hospitals prioritized control over freedom in birth, was truly a gauntlet. Women sought out of hospital birth for the first time, fueled by fear and anxiety. I learned to meet women where they were at and move them into a space of peace, calm, and confidence in their bodies and their babies. In that space, my midwife mind was developed. I served hundreds of families in Missouri and Kansas, some families as far as 3 hours from my home because no midwife would travel to them. I gladly chose to drive hours round trip for home visits and births, because on those long drives through the Kansas plains, I was able to lay down prayers with every mile. Asking God, "Where do you want me? How do I get there? When should I go?" Like my ancestor, Peter Hardeman Burnett, the answer was "Go West, to the mountains". Full of faith, I began winding down my Kansas City practice and made plans to move to Utah. I married my spouse under the aspen trees at the foot of the mountains in Rotary Glen Park in Park City, UT and began building a life here. Now, I find myself rooted in the same valley as you all, with open arms and an open heart, ready to serve the families that are sent my way.

Kim has provided nothing but the best care throughout my entire pregnancy and after for my little boy and I! I have felt honored and valued- nothing less! She is markedly professional, yet empathic and open with personal anecdotes when asked. While passionately supportive of your goals and values, she openly explains the full spectrum of each topic to empower your best decisions- ultimately respectful and supportive of your final decision. I love how Kim is so knowledgable about natural ways to address comfort/concerns and willing to try these before moving onto medical interventions. I was continually impressed by her ability to recommend several natural remedies to try when I mentioned anything under the sun! Not only that, but why they work and their benefits/risks. Her philosophy and passion about midwifery is evident. Im so grateful for her role in my natural childbirth and hope to have her again for a homebirth with our next child! Thank you ♡

En ESPAÑOL mire más abajo... I was born and raised in Panama, and with a North American and a Panamanian parent, I bring with me a taste of multicultural integration. I grew up in the country side of Panama, so moving to the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, to be outdoors as much as possible, enjoy hiking with our dog, kayaking, camping, and live a simple life, makes it feel like home. Ways I support families are connecting with baby prenatally, navigating birth (knowing now that the birth experience has a big impact on how our life unfolds and who we are), transitioning to parenthood, understanding postpartum recovery, boosting & (breast)feeding support, tips & tricks for less cry and more sleep, early brain development, and creating parenting habits with consciousness. I have over 35 years of working with families and their little ones in different fields, and with time, I became a strong promoter of prenatal bonding. My main focus is to help families as early as possible in their pregnancy, right after birth, with reading their newborn’s body language, expressing feelings, and practice processing them. The postpartum recovery period can be tricky... mothers go through wild hormonal and emotional changes throughout this journey, and adaptations, and infants as well, bring with them memories from the womb and the birth, which sometimes are manifested with cry. I model self-regulation, using tools like deep breathing and connection, helping the family, so mothers recover smoothly, and babies enjoy growing, feeling safe, loved, accepted, and understood, giving them tools to keep wanting to explore and be able to learn. I usually do overnights to help create a system, specially in those first weeks to help recovering baby’s birth weight, and so parents get some sleep; encouraging & empowering them. I am based in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado, although I love going all over the United States and get to know new places at the same time. ESPAÑOL Nací y crecí en Panamá, y con un padre norteamericano y uno panameño, traigo conmigo un sabor de integración multicultural. Crecí en el campo de Panamá, así que mudarme a las Montañas Rocosas en Colorado, estar al aire libre tanto como sea posible, disfrutar de caminatas con nuestro perro, hacer kayak, acampar, y vivir una vida simple, hace que se sienta como en casa. Las maneras en que apoyo a las familias son conectando con el bebé prenatalmente, navegando el parto (sabiendo que la experiencia del parto tiene un gran impacto en cómo se desarrolla nuestra vida y quiénes somos), la transición a la paternidad, entendiendo la recuperación posparto, apoyo para lactancia y (amamantamiento), consejos y trucos para menos llanto y más sueño, desarrollo temprano del cerebro, y creando hábitos de crianza con conciencia. Tengo más de 35 años de experiencia trabajando con familias y sus pequeños en diferentes campos, y con el tiempo, me convertí en un fuerte promotor del vínculo prenatal. Mi enfoque principal es ayudar a las familias lo antes posible en su embarazo, justo después del nacimiento, leyendo el lenguaje corporal de su recién nacido, expresando sentimientos y practicando su procesamiento. El período de recuperación posparto puede ser complicado... las madres atraviesan cambios hormonales y emocionales intensos a lo largo de este viaje, y las adaptaciones, así como los infantes, traen consigo recuerdos del útero y el nacimiento, que a veces se manifiestan con llanto. Yo modelo la autorregulación, utilizando herramientas como la respiración profunda y la conexión, ayudando a la familia, para que las madres se recuperen suavemente y los bebés disfruten crecer, sintiéndose seguros, amados, aceptados y comprendidos, dándoles herramientas para seguir queriendo explorar y poder aprender. Normalmente hago noches para ayudar a crear un sistema, especialmente en esas primeras semanas para ayudar a recuperar el peso de nacimiento del bebé, y así los padres puedan dormir un poco; alentándolos y empoderándolos. Estoy basada en las Montañas Rocosas de Colorado, aunque me encanta viajar por todo Estados Unidos y conocer nuevos lugares al mismo tiempo.
