welcome baby boy
April 9, 2025 When this one was ready to come earthside…he didn’t want to wait! Just over two hours from the first contraction! I didn’t mind having a third birth that day, but I am grateful it was a quicker one (that is rarely the case)

April 9, 2025 I’m always amazed by the strength and resilience of mothers as they prepare for, wait on, and bring their babies into the world. I’ve never doubted that God has a hand in each life, but this birth was such a clear reminder of His perfect timing and care over this little one.

February 10, 2025 Watching two people who love each other labor together, pray together and worship together…beautiful. And that sweet girl? The beauty of their faith and love shines brightly on and though her. So grateful I had my partner @sydney_beth99with me

February 10, 2025 There was prayer. There was laughter. There was quietness and rest. There were words of encouragement and there was hands on support. There was a husband who advocated hard for what they wanted for their baby. There was the strength of a VBAC mama. What a joy it is to get to […]

Prenatally and in labor. Both parents were informed, and sought out wisdom from their birth team and staff on making the […]

December 24, 2024 It’s never too late to hire a doula! It may be harder to find, but there are plenty of us. I met this family at 35 weeks, and we hit it off pretty quickly! Things weren’t progressing as we had hoped, and pitocin was pretty high…so I broke out my magic trick…the […]
2024 Wrapped
I pushed myself and dove head first into the deep waters of birth and birth support full time in 2024. There’s a lot more to the “what I learned” list than these but this is a good start. I probably did way more than I should have, but don’t regret it. Every moment, every mother, […]
