Mothers are the Source of all human life.
Our Mothers are our first teachers, our first Earth. Their well-being is intrinsic to our health.
My work as a birth and postnatal doula is to listen, support, inform, care for and nurture all the mothers and families who approach me with the awareness that when a mother thrives, we all thrive.
I Love seeing women shine and embrace motherhood when they feel empowered, well-informed and confident.
My approach is very gentle. Using movement to soothe and support your birth experience comes from my background as a trained dancer and somatic movement practitioner. For ease and vitality, I give particular attention to the pelvis. I make sure that the mother-to-be is aware and confident about her body’s potential and how she can best prepare for the birth she most desires.
While respecting the mother’s individual needs and decisions, my presence in the birthing space is my commitment to helping her deliver her baby in her own way, without inhibitions, and with the appropriate support. My work is to ensure that she has the most positive birth experience possible.
I have found that birth reflects a woman’s relationship to herself and her body. This is why my practice deeply values embodiment and self-care. The use of aromatherapy, massage, the rebozo (a traditional Mexican shawl) and gentle movement are combined to accompany the mother, physically and emotionally, throughout pregnancy, the birth process and the postnatal period.
Appreciating your partner’s needs and concerns becomes part of my work during this significant time.
