I was greeted by the sweetest little toddler voice this evening when I arrived for a postpartum visit — “Manda, come and see our baby sister! She’s OUT and not in my mommy’s tummy anymore!” 🥹💜

Moments like these melt my heart every single time. So thankful to be invited into this special season with families and to help everyone feel included in welcoming their newest little one. What a gift! 💜

Beautiful, Beautiful baby feet! 💜 👣 🌈 This adorable little one joined her family, and they are thrilled to be adding a little pink to their laundry piles which held before all blue!

Birth will never cease to amaze me — the strength, the beauty, the power of women bringing new life into the world.

Huge thank you to for walking alongside me and assisting empower this family through their birthing journey! 💗

There truly is nothing better than walking in with flowers to see a family cuddling with their sweet day-old baby. 💐These early postpartum home visits are one of my favorite parts of providing midwifery care — and in my opinion, one of the biggest differences families experience with home birth midwifery care. Supporting parents in their own space in the early weeks, without disrupting that precious bonding time, is absolutely priceless. 💕

I truly love supporting families this way. 🏡👶

Yesterday’s “see you later” visit for the neatest family reminded me yet again how thankful I am to be part of such a special time in families’ lives — and to work alongside other amazing midwives. 💜

The theme for October seems to be amazing placentas with variations! 💜 💊🥰

Today I delivered 170 capsules (my largest amount ever in over 9 years of encapsulation!) to an amazing placenta encapsulation client. 💪💜👶

This placenta had so many unique variations — truly incredible to see in person. Every single placenta reminds me how wonderfully different each birth story and placenta really are. 💜
