Prenatal & Birth
A wisdom keeper. An advocate. A visionary. During your pregnancy and birth, I serve as your emotional, spiritual, physical, and mental support. You will prepare for birth and welcome your baby earthside with empowerment, confidence, and love.
I will provide 4 prenatal in-home visits, lasting 2 hours each. These visits are designed for us to get to know each other and to determine how I might best serve you in childbirth. I will make 1 prenatal visit with you to the healthcare provider, if requested.
All prenatal sessions begin with 45-60 minutes of yoga/bellydance/energy healing/healing through words. Followed by 60-75 minutes of doula preparation - information and embodied practices. The topics of discussion at the 4 prenatal sessions include:
Session 1: Nutrition Overview, Birth Plan Creation, Stages of Labor & Delivery
Session 2: Pain Management Techniques
Session 3: The Role of Affirmations, Visualizations, Sound & Breath
Session 4: Postpartum
You will often walk away with viktory assignments to further enhance the healing or learning that took place in our session.
In addition to the 4 sessions geared towards birth preparation, I will also provide weekly in-home (or virtual) prenatal yoga. Our time together on the mat allows us to form an intimate and deep relationship which better prepares me to support you during labor and delivery. But it also prepares you in mind, body and spirit for your upcoming initiation into motherhood.
I will also provide in-person birth support at hospitals, birthing centers, and homes.

Postnatal & New Motherhood
A new version of you was born with your baby. Just as you are now nurturing and caring for a new life, you need someone to do the same for you. You will ease into motherhood with support, confidence, and strength.
I will provide 4 postnatal in-home visits, lasting 2 hours each. These visits are designed for you to receive gentle support as you relearn, return to, and restore yourself.
All postnatal sessions begin with a check-in where I assess overall wellness and identify potential signs of postpartum mental health concerns. While these sessions are not as formal as the prenatal sessions, I will help you process the birthing experience, assist with breastfeeding, provide emotional/informational support. offer energy healing, guided mediations, newborn care, and so much more. I create a safe and nurturing space for emergence and integration.
In our first postnatal session you will receive a home cooked meal to aid in your healing, in addition to a newborn gift. During our last session you will receive a personal gift from my garden.
Additionally, we will meet weekly for postnatal yoga sessions beginning at week 6 postpartum and continuing until 3 months postpartum. These yoga sessions will help you find peace of mind amongst the chaos and they will begin to restore the body to its new optimal state.
1 yoni steam between 6-8wks postpartum is also included.
Our entire time together (from pregnancy to postpartum) is designed to ignite generational healing and spiritual expansion by promoting your total mind-body-spirit alignment. It also is designed to ease you into motherhood with support. Essentially, I am mothering the mother. The sooner we begin working together, the better. It all begins with you!
