Compassionate and Reliable Birth Support

Creating a birth team that supports your desires for birth is incredibly important during this transitional and sacred time in your life. I'm here to support you in your choices. I can help prepare you to knowledgeably advocate for your desired birth experience whether you have a home, hospital, or birth center birth. I will be there for you on the day of your birth supporting whatever needs may come up during that time. I can support those who labor without pain medication, use pitocin, an epidural,  analgesic medications, or have a C-section.  After your birth, I will stay with you for the first few hours postpartum to help your family settle in.
