The intersection of my Christian faith and pregnancy, birth, and family life. I teach about pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding.

Families and professionals need information based on current research (and common sense) so that they can have the safest and most satisfying birth possible. Birth is about more than just getting the baby from the inside to the outside. It includes an enormous emotional shift for all members of the family. For professionals concerned about quality of healthcare, attending to those emotional needs is not usually something that was emphasized in their training. Non-pharmacologic forms of pain relief, initiation of breastfeeding, and parent-
infant bonding are all subjects that I teach. I enjoy educating parents as well - one-on-one, in groups, over Skype, and on this page. I am only one person though. As an ICEA certified trainer for doulas and childbirth educators, I can now train others. No woman should live in fearful expectation of her birth experience. Knowledge and support can abolish that fear. Together we can make a difference.
