Prenatal, Birth, and Postnatal Services
Birth Doula
No matter how you choose to give birth, having a birth doula by your side can make a significant difference in your labor experience and your confidence entering parenthood. We work together to effectively communicate and uphold your birth preferences, ensuring that your desires are honored and actively supported throughout the birthing process. Let’s discover and harness your innate strength and resilience.
Several packages available!
Prenatal Classes
A variety of evidence-based classes designed to empower and prepare you for every stage of your journey, from pregnancy to parenthood. Whether you’re looking to build confidence for birth, learn about breastfeeding, or prepare for the postpartum period, our classes provide practical knowledge, personalized support, and expert guidance. Each class is tailored to help you make informed decisions and feel prepared for the road ahead.
Breastfeeding Support
Sometimes breastfeeding goes smoothly, and sometimes you need a little extra support. As a lactation counselor, I provide individualized, evidence-informed support from the comfort of your home. We will find solutions to common breastfeeding issues, such as engorgement, pain with feedings, shallow latch, and low supply, so you can confidently achieve your breastfeeding goals. Our visits will be one to two hours long. I also provide virtual support by phone, text, and email.
Postnatal Support Services
The time after giving birth is vulnerable and precious. I help you make space for and protect the bubble that surrounds your new little family. I assist with bonding with baby, breastfeeding support, basic newborn care, soothing techniques as well as cooking nourishing meals, assisting with siblings, or light cleaning and laundry. We will create a schedule together to meet your needs and expectations.
Beyond Birth
Our Beyond Birth series is designed to provide guidance and community during the early months of motherhood. Starting with a session in the last month of pregnancy to create a personalized postpartum plan, this small-group series continues with monthly meetings beginning six weeks after your baby is born. Over the course of five sessions, we’ll cover topics like postpartum wellness, emotional adjustments, and identity, giving you a space to share experiences, ask questions, and receive support during this vulnerable time.
Postnatal Support
“Birth is an opportunity to transcend. To rise above what we are accustomed to, reach deeper inside ourselves than we are familiar with, and to see not only what we are truly made of, but the strength we can access in and through birth.”
