From peanut balls to birth balls—these vibrant tools are more than just eye-catching! They’re game-changers in promoting comfort, movement, and optimal positioning during labor. 🌈👶🏽
Our doulas are trained to use each one intentionally to help reduce pain, encourage progress, and support families through every wave of birth. Because every birth deserves balance, movement, and a little splash of color! 💕

Birth is powerful.
Birth is tender.
And having someone by your side who truly knows how to hold that space? That’s everything.
💛
Every breath, every moment, every little first cry — it deserves care rooted in skill, experience,
and heart. Heather has supported hundreds of families over the years, first through private
midwifery care and now through her continued work in our community.
Her hands have caught life, her presence has brought calm, and her care is grounded in trust,
safety, and love.
💫
Whether it’s your first baby or your fourth, you deserve someone who shows up with knowledge,
grace, and compassion every time.

cry through contractions with snacks in hand. 󰡂󰙢🍿
Rooted in culture. Backed by tradition. Rocking birth balls and ancestral wisdom. ✨
