Changing the next generation’s perception of birth, one momma at a time 💪🏻

12/20/2025

It was an honor to work with a fellow doula! Rebecca prepared her body, mind and heart for another VBAC and she labored beautifully.

Even when we do all of the “right” things, the Lord has other plans and He is sovereign.

It was humbling to witness Rebecca’s surrender and trust in God as she entered into another c-section birth.

It was also such a joy to be with another momma of 4 girls 💗

From prenatal to postpartum, I offer support throughout your entire pregnancy, birth and postpartum.

- Prenatally, we go over goals and I get to know my clients on a deeper level. We focus on birth education, movement and mindset
- In person labor support starting at 37 weeks. I am with my clients while they are in active labor until baby is born and then 1-2 hours postpartum
- Postnatally, I visit my clients in their home and we discuss their feelings toward their birth. I’m also there to do any light house work, set up a meal plan or give community resources.

⚠️ If this is your mindset heading into labor, chances are high that you will end up accepting interventions.

Your mindset going into labor can make or break your dream birth!

🚫 focusing on the fear
🚫 doubting your God given ability
🚫 people pleasing
🚫 lack of birth education

Instead….

✨ focus on the beauty of the process
✨ trust that God has a plan for your labor and delivery AND that He created your body in a way to birth your baby!
✨stop trying to please your doctor, family or anyone else. Do what is right for you and your baby.
✨take a quality birth course, read books and listen to podcasts on physiological birth

✨ peaceful, calm, controlled

Those are the 3 words I would use to describe Christian’s beautiful unmedicated, physiological birth.
After laboring all night (literally!), Christian continued to stay calm and in control. I kept telling her husband that she would be approaching transition soon… little did we know she was already fully dilated! She then stayed completely calm and in control while being fully dilated for over an hour and not pushing yet 🤯 She never voiced any doubts or fears. She instead took each contraction as one step closer to meeting her baby 🤍 it was truly incredible to witness!
