As a doula, my passion is to positively impact growing families in our community. I accomplish this by providing non judgmental support, and instilling confidence through pregnancy, birth, and life. I am a professional birth and postpartum doula whose primary goal is to overdeliver with compassion, enthusiasm, love, understanding and providing an uplifting fun stress-free environment that allows my clients to really relax and enjoy the moment in the little things that come with pregnancy and birth that I feel a lot of people forget because they're so stressed about the changes going on with there bodies or the changes  going to happen with life once the baby gets here. I provide confidence in labor, birth, postpartum and parenting for every family I serve.   I am supportive of all kinds of births! Home births, birthing center births, hospital births, natural births, medicated births, c-births - you name it! As long as the birthing person is comfortable in their choices then I'm a happy doula. To me, a positive birth experience can change a whole community; empowering new parents to create happy and healthy new families. While the journey of birth sparked my interest to explore this world, the bond parents create with their babies is my fuel!

 BIRTH SERVICES

​

 My doula services are highly trained(DONA), skilled, and certified professional doula and I provides continuous physical, emotional and informational support to you and your partner before, during and shortly after childbirth to help you achieve the healthiest, most satisfying experience possible. 

I know how important it is to trust your doula, so I always offers a free initial consultation interview. Afterward, I will meet with you, several times before the birth to get to know each other better and discuss your birth goals. You will have continuous support throughout your labor as soon as you decide you want me there. You’ll receive unlimited text, phone, and email support throughout your entire pregnancy and postpartum period. I will be on-call from the moment you sign the contract. I will meet with you again two to three  times after the birth, usually two to three weeks postpartum. You are, however, free to contact me any time with questions or concerns.​​​​

PLACENTA ENCAPSULATION PACKAGE $250

Your Placenta & Placenta Encapsulation

Consuming one’s placenta is an ancient Chinese tradition that is quickly gaining popularity here in the United States. In many cultures and traditions, the placenta serves as a symbol of spirit energy and life. Along with its symbolism it has been said to have many positive effects in the postpartum period. The placenta is believed to contain components that are beneficial to the human body and rich in nutrients that the mother may need to recover after childbirth. This has been around for thousands of years and is still a thriving part of Traditional Chinese Medicine today. So much that placenta “medicine” is now used in the modern pharmaceutical industry as well as the beauty industry. Depending on your preferences or the circumstances of your health and birth, one option may be better suited for you.

PERSONALIZED PLACENTAL PREPARATIONS

A tincture is made from a piece of the mother’s raw placenta. It is steeped in alcohol making a very strong remedy over a 6 week period.

☆Beliefs behind a Placenta Tincture

☆A Placenta Tincture is to be used by the mother during times of illness or stress once the capsules have been consumes. Women have reported the tincture aiding them in times of PMS, depression and menopause.

Traditional Placenta Encapsulation

This is the most traditional form of placenta preparation. In this method the placenta is cleaned and steamed with warming herbs such as lemongrass, ginger or spicy peppers. After being steamed, it is then sliced and dehydrated at a low temperature (105-115 degrees Fahrenheit) for 8-10 hours. After the dehydration process the placenta is then ground up into a find powder and placed inside Vegetarian capsules. There is a wide range in the number of capsules a placenta can produce. Depending on the size, a placenta can produce anywhere from 80-200 capsules.
