My interest in midwifery began in 1997 with the pregnancy of my first child. I attended a small midwifery school in Eugene, Oregon taught by a traditional midwife and her husband, a naturopath. This early experience was inspirational and helped form my core beliefs about a healthy pregnancy and birth. In addition, this early education provided me an opportunity to study alternative forms of healthcare, herbal medicine and nutrition, which I have incorporated into my practice.
I also started a postpartum doula practice. I feel that the weeks and months following birth are important for parent/infant bonding, breastfeeding success and maternal recovery. I have worked with many families through the years and continue to enjoy assisting new parents with this transition.
For over 10 years, I have been fascinated with and have loved sharing in the birth process from pregnancy to new born.
I feel truly honored to be a part of this transformational life experience.
