Red Blanket - Birth Services and Support

Red Blanket - Birth Services and Support Providing birth support for mothers and families, including labor support, prenatal, postpartum; within indigenous and western traditions.

Full Spectrum Trauma-Informed Doula supporting through the perinatal phase. It is a fundamental belief that I hold, and follow: all womb-carriers and children, because of their connection to the universe, are sacred. All my life I have felt a deep connection—through my own adoption, working with infants and new mothers as a nanny, and coming into my identity as an Indigenous woman—to the process of birth. I constantly ask myself, how can I contribute to the betterment of the next generations to come? What are the things that cause my whole being to resonate with purpose? Becoming a birth worker was an answer. I understand through experience and shared knowledge the hardships most of us endure throughout our lives, and that those things influence each birth. The way in which life is brought into this world has the power to affect the new life, and the lives around them from then on. I am a doula because it is a way to empower, and bring new life into this world in the best way possible. Protecting, providing, advocating, empowering.

YOU CAN DO BIG THINGS! Like push a 14 lb 7 oz baby out naturally with NO VAGINAL TEARING! 🙌🏽💪🏽🤰🏻 4 hours of labor, 15 mins of pushing. ✨Rockstar✨

You rock Coastal Midwifery!

“A few days ago I had the pleasure of attending the beautiful HOME BIRTH of this BIG man.

His mama saw a Licensed midwife throughout her pregnancy and prepared physically and emotionally for the birth of her second baby.

During her 4 hour long labor she rocked, walked and danced her baby down, she instinctively pushed in the standing position for 15 mins and delivered all..... are you ready for it.... 14 lbs 7oz of him! She was also able to deliver this chunky baby with no tears.

After doing their research this family chose a midwife to guide them through their pregnancy and birth and were able to have an amazing experience in the comfort of their own home.

This baby stayed with his mama on her chest breastfed within the first hour. Mama and baby are doing amazing.

People are capable of delivering their baby, even when they are big! Way to go mama!”

“Birthwork isn’t just birthwork. It’s decolonization work. It’s water protection. It’s land protection. It’s inclusivity. It’s language revitalization. It’s cultural revitalization. It’s community work. It’s anti-racism work. It’s social work. It’s plant medicine healing. It’s body work. It’s trauma informed care. It’s advocacy. It’s sexual health it’s reproductive health. It’s body sovereignty and security.
It’s my resistance”-apiscikahkakis, Full Spectrum Indigenous Doula 🍓
