I am a warrior birther and believe my experiences can help you reach your goals. I have had a home birth with lay-midwife, 3 hospital waterbirths, 4 non medicated hospital births. 8 in total. I believe every woman needs an advocate to make sure her birth plan manifests! Helping Mama's achieve their personal birth story goals is my life mission. 1 in 4 Mama's in Ohio do not make it to their babies first birthday. I am working to help end this trend. Women today are dealing with different maternal factors than the previous generations. Every pregnant mom wants a diet that is healthy. But in today's world that may not be as easily attainable as you would believe. We rely heavily on processed foods that are highly concentrated with sodium. Nearly every drink on the market comes in a plastic bottle. Juice, Water, Milk. We all have learned that microplastics is not healthy. Can we please have drinking products in aluminum cans with bpa free liners undetectable to taste or glass bottles? What are the consequences on a mothers body with added sodium and lots of plastics? When a mother consumes these products while pregnant does this put your health and your babies health on the best track? Is there a simple solution that all mothers can use? The answer is yes. Hydration for today's standards. I wrote a book to share with expecting mothers the importance of hydration during Pregnancy in todays packaged and processed food world. We are all told by our medical team to drink more water and stay hydrated. But as a birth doula I have found moms have questions that they feel are embarrassing to discus about hydration for fear of being thought ignorant. I explain to my moms that honestly that is the most important question you could ask. I break down what water does for you and your baby. We go over possible complications from dehydration. Lastly we discuss preventive hydration care. It is simple, it's easy and makes a difference in regards to how a mom feels physically as well as emotionally about her body and baby. The health impovements that occur with a well hydrated mother are vastly important. Learn what they are and how to hydrate you and your baby. You can purchase on Amazon.

Hi, I’m Natalee- a postpartum doula, newborn care specialist, homeschooling mom, and believer that every family deserves a gentle, supported start. My approach is rooted in compassion, evidence-based care, and deep respect for each parent’s intuition. I see the postpartum season not as something to “get through,” but as a sacred transition- a time to slow down, rest, and grow together. My goal is to help parents feel confident and cared for, whether that means creating a calm rhythm at home, offering newborn care guidance, or simply holding space so you can rest and reconnect. I believe there’s no one “right” way to parent- just the way that feels right for you. My philosophy centers on helping families discover what works for them while reminding them they don’t have to do it all. You deserve support that feels personal, nurturing, and grounded- because thriving in parenthood starts with feeling seen, heard, and held.

I am a career nanny of 11 years, ages ranging from 3 days old to 9 years old. I am becoming dual certified as a Newborn Care Specialist and a Post Partum Doula. I have an associates in Deaf Interpreter studies and have several years experience with special needs children (pre school) as well as nanny experience with special needs and language development. Not much scares me and I have the negotiation skills of a pro. I am passionate about seeing milestones ( no matter what age) being reached. I am extremely reliable and take positive communication very seriously. I appreciate learning about different cultures and religions and will respect these beliefs, while doing my best to help your child follow your beliefs. Helping your child grow to be respectful and kind is something that I will strive for. I am not a fan of screen time, I prefer to keep your child busy with other activities. I enjoy traveling and seeing and experiencing different ways of life. I love going to venues that have live music and being outside. You will see my name as Kathleen, but most everyone calls me Katie, unless you're my mother when she was mad at me and then it's Kathleen. I look froward to hearing from parents that are interested in having someone that at all times is keeping an eye on their Child and considers their safety my number 1 priority.
