Delicious morning spent with my soul-sister-midwife, a wise and lovely local herbalist and a circle of beautiful women learning about herbal medicine and plant healing…. Magical.

This sweet little one arrived on Saturday evening surrounded by love. She did the earth shattering job of creating brand new parents and they were an inspiration of what partnership, trust and love can be. midwife

The 6 week visit. So full of love and story telling. So often, when first time parents walk in the door for this last visit together, we are struck by transformations. The couple we met in early pregnancy have a new look ~ often both a new strength and a new softness. They have been reborn. The tiny infant we beheld at her birth is smiling and making eye contact… she has gotten rounder and softer as her mom becomes less so! We are blessed to have witnessed them becoming a family… and the goodbye is bittersweet. #2!

This sweet soul connected with everyone the moment he arrived. It wasn’t an easy journey and I think he knew that we were all earth side awaiting his safe passage. Carol Leonard writes of midwives as possessing the “hands of a lady, the eyes of a hawk and the heart of a lion”, in all these ways and more I waited with my sister midwives for this little one. So grateful to hold him in my hands and welcome him with the new day.

I’m grateful to say that I am able attend your birth here. Come say hello this Wednesday at the Open House! Or reach out if you can’t make it this week and we can chat about this amazing choice for your birth!

CALL THE MIDWIFE!!!

When deciding to give birth in a birth center, you are deciding to have less chance for a C-Section. You are deciding not to be confined to a bed, therefore giving you the choice to give birth in any position including water birth. Instead of having strangers in your intimate birth setting, you can have COVID-19 negative family members attend your birth. You are deciding not to have the possibility of your birth being rushed, but having a facility dedicated only to you and your birth plan. You will choose to have the freedom to walk around, use the bathroom, take a shower, Nitrous Oxide for the pain, or even to eat a snack or drink a cup of juice.

Please attend our Open House Wednesday, May 11, 2022 between 12pm and 7pm in Union, NJ

Happy Mother’s Day! A moment of gratitude for my Mom and my Grammy who have given so much love and taught me what it means to be a mother, and to be mothered. Gratitude and blessings also to all of the amazing women I have had the honor to midwife and witness as you become mothers. Thank you for sharing your strength and vulnerability with me. I am always humbled to be with you on the journey. Have a beautiful day. Keep sharing pics of your growing kiddos with me! I love it!!!
