Blue Skies Gentle Parenting

Blue Skies Gentle Parenting I am a Postpartum Doula and Parenting Coach, located between Florence and San Tan Valley, AZ. Mothering, for me, was a hard-won process.

My passion is to help parents meet with success in raising emotionally healthy children and enjoying their parenting journey. I am grateful to be a mother of six beautiful children, ages 31, 30, 29, 27, 24, and 23. My first daughter was born full-term after I had surgery at 32 weeks to remove a cyst near my ovary. I experienced secondary infertility and multiple treatments and finally set my heart on adoption. My second daughter was born in Seoul, S. Korea and joined our family at the age of 3.5 months. My son surprised us all and joined our family by birth 13 months later. I am also fortunate to be a mother-figure to my husband's three children, as I joined their family when they were adults. I am also VERY lucky to be a grandmother! I believe the very different circumstances in which each of my children entered my life have prepared me to provide compassionate and empathetic care for women who are on their own journey to becoming a mother, regardless of the path they take. I have a Master's Degree from Western Michigan University in Community Agency Counseling with an emphasis in Marriage and Family Counseling. I also have a Bachelor's Degree from WMU in Elementary Education with an emphasis in Early Childhood Education. In addition I am also a Certified Life Coach and Certified Hypnotherapist. I am training for Birth Doula certification through DONA International and for Postpartum Doula certification through MaternityWise. My passion is caring for women and helping them to reach their dreams of motherhood.

“What about when they get out into the real world and not everyone empathizes with them.”

Treating your child with respect and kindness creates a sense of security and self-worth that protects them in the outside world. When they are not treated with respect and kindness, they know it is not because they aren’t worthy of it. They have an inherent belief in their own worth and being disrespected by someone doesn’t make them question their worth.
