If you’re considering midwifery care, I gently encourage reaching out early in your pregnancy. This kind of care is deeply personal and relationship-based, which means I serve a limited number of families each month. Connecting sooner allows space for meaningful conversation, trust-building, and intentional preparation.

An initial consultation, whether in person or virtual, is simply a chance for us to meet, ask questions, and see if this feels like the right fit for you. There is no pressure or obligation, just a space to connect, listen, and explore together.

Throughout your pregnancy, we meet regularly in your home to monitor you and your baby’s well-being, review your journal, and support you with nutrition, herbs, movement, and rest.

We integrate childbirth and lactation education into each visit, while also creating space for emotional support, questions, and shared decision-making around labs and screenings.

Visits are relaxed and relationship-based, allowing time for connection, reflection, and preparation. As you near birth, visits become more frequent so we can stay closely connected. Support people are always welcome.

Beginning of 37 weeks, I remain on call as you approach your due window and come to your home once labor is active, fully equipped to support a safe and peaceful birth.

Care follows the midwifery model, honoring the body’s natural process, freedom of movement, nourishment, rest, and minimal intervention when appropriate.

After birth, your baby is placed skin-to-skin as you rest and bond. Newborn care is done gently at your side, without separation, while you’re supported in feeding and early postpartum choices.

I remain with you for several hours after birth, ensuring you and your baby are well before leaving you to settle in together.

Postpartum care is a vital part of your journey, offering support as you heal, recover, and adjust to life with your newborn.

Care includes in home visits, herbal support, and ongoing monitoring of both mother and baby, including assessments, labs, and newborn screenings (included at no additional cost). Guidance in lactation and nutrition is provided, along with the Held Pregnancy + Postpartum Journal to support your transition.

I also assist with birth certificate and Social Security paperwork after your baby arrives.

This time is honored as a sacred transition, with optional offerings like Closing of the Bones and vaginal steam. Continued support and resources are available beyond six weeks to help you feel grounded and supported.
