I bring a wealth of training and experience to the community, having supported women in many capacities such as home and hospital births, VBACs, medicated and unmedicated births, hypnobirthing, c-sections, infant loss, trauma, and healing labor.
I accept a minimal number of clients (1.5-month avg.), as my style is to be as attentive as possible.
