I’m a doula, lactation counselor, and lifelong champion of birthing people… who also:
🧶 Crochets quick, cozy things (toys and hats only—my sweater attempts look like modern art gone wrong)
🎶 Treats my kitchen like a Broadway stage (RENT karaoke: 1996 to present, no signs of stopping)
📜 Would rather debate Middle-earth lore than football stats
🐕 Runs a mini-zoo (2 dogs + 2 cats = a home where fur and chaos reign)
🎭 Is a professional hype-woman for two teen performers (catch me waving obnoxiously at every band comp)
⚔️ Fails spectacularly at Ren Faire subtlety (here for the turkey legs, stay for the accidental Shakespearean insults)
My work? Rooted in justice, evidence, and your right to choose.
My heart? Where stories begin—in the sweat, the tears, and the wild triumph of birth. (Bring tissues. I’ve already got mine.)
As a mother and sexual health educator, I know birth isn’t just a medical event -- it’s your story, and I'm honored to help you write it.
I’m here to help you feel:
✨ Empowered -- like the hero of your own journey (minus the orcs -- unless you’re into that).
🦸 In Charge -- with evidence-based support that you steer.
💖 Deeply Seen -- because birth is messy, beautiful, and as unique as you are.
But let’s be real, good support requires honesty. So here’s where I stand:
Your informed choices are sacred. I’ll share research if you want it, but never pressure.
Marginalized birthers’ safety isn’t negotiable. Ever.
I partner with clients who trust science. Vaccines? Yes. Harmful practices like spanking? No.
This means:
Bodily autonomy for all—including infants. Little bodies deserve big respect.
Personally, I avoid routine infant procedures (like circumcision or physical discipline) unless there’s a clear medical need, but I honor every family’s right to informed choice. My role? To share evidence, dismantle stigma, and support your decisions, without pressure, shame, or secrecy.
Your reproductive history is welcome here. Your consent matters here. Your care should be led by you, not outdated routines.
All families deserve celebration. I support:
Queer, trans, and non-binary birthers with zero exceptions.
Inclusive language and gender-affirming advocacy in every space we walk into.
Your identity is not a complication. It’s part of your power, and I’ll always have your back.
I prioritize evidence-based care, without losing the human heart of it. That means:
Vaccination support for safer pregnancies and births.
Collaboration with medical professionals, because safe care isn't solo care. (I don't attend unassisted births).
Honest conversations about risks and benefits, with no fear tactics, ever.
Balancing research with real-life feelings, because evidence matters... but so do you.
Birth doesn’t happen in a vacuum. I actively work to:
Amplify BIPOC voices in birth work and challenge the systems that silence them.
Provide culturally aware, bias-conscious support rooted in respect and curiosity, not assumptions.
Stand with marginalized birthers facing medical racism, transphobia, or other forms of discrimination. Your safety is not up for debate.
My care is guided by:
The inherent worth and dignity of every person.
Justice, equity, and compassion ,not just in theory, but in practice.
Connection over isolation, because nobody should have to navigate hard choices alone.
Birth isn’t just about babies.
It’s about who holds power.
Who feels safe.
Who gets heard.
I help you reclaim your voice -- and your choices -- in a system that too often dismisses both.
✨ Geeks out over your favorite lore and your birth plan with equal passion (LOTR*, The Dark Crystal, vampire lore headcannons -- I'm here for it.)
✨ Believes in your strength like a choir believes in harmony— your voice leads this song
🔬 Offers science-backed, shame-free care (with a side of sex-positive education)
🔬 Fights for LGBTQ+/BIPOC equity in birth spaces (because "safe enough" isn't enough)
I thrive when partnering with clients who:
Collaborate with medical providers (I don’t support unassisted births)
Trust science (vaccines, prenatal care, and bodily autonomy)
Share my fire for radical inclusion and compassionate care
🕯️ My foundation? Your birth should feel safe, affirming, and fiercely yours.
