Midwife translates “with woman”. That is my goal: to be with you through your decisions, your care and your birth. I want to support, counsel and encourage you and your family. I believe in evidence based care that we work together as a team to develop for your pregnancy and birth care. I am natural minded with a passion in nutrition, herbs, essential oils and other lifestyle choices to optimize your health. I monitor you throughout pregnancy and labor to assess that out of hospital birth is a good choice for you and your baby. 

Birth is a family affair. I love to have siblings attend appointments and feel a part of the whole process whether it is just running to play with our measuring tapes or helping to find baby's heartbeat. One client's child called our office the "Heartbeat House". I love that name!  Children are welcome at birth. Though we recommend preparing your child and having someone there just for the care and comfort of your child/ren and removal from the birth atmosphere if needed. We loved dads involved as much as possible, including catching the baby. Dads are vital to moms in labor and just their presence has a calming effect. Loving moms, dads, babies and families in a way that glorifies God is my passion and calling.
