You deserve support.
Allow me to empower you, advocate for you, nourish you, and bring a calm, loving presence into your home.
The postpartum period is a sensitive and sacred time of healing, bonding, and expanding.
These changes go far beyond learning to care for your newborn.
You yourself have gone through a portal and are meeting new parts of yourself as you navigate your new body, family structure, and change in identity.
I would be honored to help and support you navigate this time.
“The birth of a child means the birth of a parent.”
-Kathrin Auger
I have been passionately supporting families over the last decade as a nanny, house manager, family assistant, and more recently, as a postpartum doula. I truly believe that offering trusted, sincere, and loving support to families is part of my mission here on this Earth and it is the greatest honor to do so.
As I have followed the call to focus my support around women coming out of the birth portal, I have learned, seen, felt, and witnessed the shame that can come with asking for help. The frustration from feeling ill-prepared and un-educated about the realities of the fourth trimester is an all to common experience.
Engrained in many of our pysches is this idea that we should be able to do everything on our own and do it well. Without help. Without support.
This couldn’t be further from the truth.
There is such STRENGTH in asking for support and opening yourself up to RECEIVE.
We spend a lot of time focussing on pregnancy and birth and not nearly enough time discussing the truths of what recovery, healing, and integration looks like with the introduction of a new life into our home.
Allow me to help you ease this transition and welcome this season feeling prepared, supported, empowered, and loved.

Move into your fourth trimester feeling empowered
I am a DONA International trained Postpartum Doula by Los Angeles Doula.
I am committed to staying up to date on evidence-based research and practices surrounding all things newborn and postpartum.
The fourth trimester, or 12 weeks postpartum, can very quickly feel overwhelming. Add in unsolicited advice, opposing opinions, and pressure from family/friends and you may begin feel confused and frustrated. Sometimes all of the outside pressure leaves you questioning your choices and may bring up feelings of shame.
Let's quiet the noise.
I want you to feel empowered and cultivate trust with your intuition.
I am passionate about your wellbeing and value the benefits
of a regulated nervous system.
I strongly believe that vibration, sound, and reiki can help support your body, mind, and soul through this transition in parenthood.
It is important to me that we both feel comfortable and confident that expectations can be met before we move forward with working together.

I can’t wait to meet you!
