Whole Heart Birthcare

My path to birthwork began with my own arrival in the world. My mother had me at home without midwife support (she joined two hours late!), and I grew up asking to hear the story over and over again. Birthing parents’ power never ceases to amaze me, and I feel a strong calling to support anyone going through this transition to the best of my ability.

 

Discovering the realities of giving birth in the USA dismayed and concerned me; too often, we see expecting parents underresourced and undersupported, left to navigate the intense and complex perinatal period alone. My goal in my work is to meet clients where they are, offer them loving support and guidance, and equip them to tackle the postpartum period effectively and resourcefully far after our work together has concluded. I draw on evidence-based resources to inform and gently guide you to make the best decisions for yourself and your family.

 

In addition to my training with Birth Advocacy Doula Trainings, I bring a unique skill set to supporting new families: drawing on my past lives as a personal chef, childcare provider, and caretaker, I offer a variety of services to suit individual needs, from in-home meal preparation to comfort and nourish to overnight care and infant feeding support to allow for sound sleep. I approach perinatal care with my whole heart, and I look forward to working with you!
