Terminology in the birth world has become overwhelmingly confusing when it comes to finding the right fit for your birth. I consider myself an Independent Traditional Birth Attendant.

Independent in that my fundamental belief in health sovereignty drives my conscious decision to work outside of any systems or governing bodies.

Traditional in that I am trained through the apprenticeship model by Indigenous Amazonian Midwives. These Achimamas rely on wisdom that has been passed down from generations of experience and story telling. They rely solely on their hands on skills and connection with God through nature. Alongside them I developed a deep understanding of undisturbed birth, herbalism and natural healing arts.

The most important decision we will make about our births is who we choose to invite. The most important question I would ask myself when inviting someone to my birth is how do they make me feel? Does my nervous system feel at peace? Do I feel respected, seen and heard? Do we align on our core values? Does she trust birth and trust me to know what’s best for me/ my baby? Does she have good energy and good spiritual hygiene?

I think if we can answer “yes” to those questions then the answer to any other question will be aligned.

I am an active member of The Alliance of Certified Community Midwives.

Yes, I support women in every womb phase. In fact, I believe that it is never too soon to get in touch with your inner womb wisdom. I myself came to this work as a maiden and found it to be instrumental in preparing for my own motherhood journey. I can work with you to attune to your cycle, heal energetic blocks and connect with your future child even if you’re not sure of timing yet.

I also work with women who are navigating the Termination of a Pregnancy, Miscarriage and Stillbirth.

I tailor all of my support to the unique needs of each woman I work with. All my engagements start with a Free Intro Chat so we can be sure that you will get everything you’re looking for out of our time together. My approach combines holistic {mind | body | spirit} techniques to connect you with your own inner wisdom.

• From there I will develop a custom program to meet your needs. For all the details on each type of program check out my services page!
