Holistic Birth Support:
Undisturbed birth is my great passion. It is my goal to make you feel nurtured and supported through the whole process without feeling observed or managed. I’m happy to support your birth in any out-of-hospital setting; birth center or home birth with or without a midwife. (Facilitating an undisturbed birth at the hospital is no small challenge, but I will consider it if you have extenuating circumstances. Please reach out.) I like to walk with my birth clients through as much of their pregnancy as possible and I am available for support 40 days postpartum. I find that when we talk things through during pregnancy, and you feel resourced, you find it much easier to surrender during birth and find your strength within. I also want you to get to know me well enough that my presence during your birth and the vulnerable postpartum feels natural and comfortable.
Serving Paonia, Hotchkiss, Cedaredge, Delta, Grand Junction and Montrose. Please reach out for a free, no strings attached meeting to see if we’re a good fit.

Postpartum Doula:
In the postpartum period, the mother needs to be nurtured so she can recover from the birth and nurture her baby. Most of us don’t have the kind of village mothers once had, and this is where a postpartum doula can be invaluable. Postpartum support is really more of a necessity than a luxury. I am happy to support you in the postpartum even if I am not on your birth team. I can cook you nourishing meals, help with daily housework and be an emotional support person during this vulnerable and life altering time. I can also help with information and resources regarding your physical healing, breastfeeding and baby care.
Serving Delta County. Please reach out for a free, no strings attached meeting. You may also buy this service as a gift for someone else. Though I prefer to book this service in advance, I am always open to fitting people in who have already given birth and find themselves needing more support than they planned for. Sometimes people suddenly find themselves struggling several weeks or months into the postpartum period, after the meal trains and well wishes have stopped flowing. If this is you, please don’t hesitate to reach out.

Pregnancy or Postpartum Conversations:
If you don’t want to hire me for full spectrum birth or postpartum support, or if you live far away, I am still happy to support you through conversations. We can connect over the phone, zoom, or in-person. I offer both one-time and ongoing support. Email me to schedule a call or a meeting.
