Motherbaby Care Rooted in Tradition

Welcome, Mama.

Do you dream of a postpartum experience that’s wildly different from the mainstream narrative?

Do you have a soul--deep knowing that the rite of passage into motherhood is meant to be filled with nourishment, beauty, and deep healing along with the challenge and growth?

Do you envision yourself writing a new story for your motherline?

I’m here to support you in creating a nourishing and restorative postpartum experience.

Traditional cultures throughout the world recognize the importance of the immediate postpartum period. Communities band together to hold families through the transition, because they understand postpartum as an opportunity for a woman to protect and restore her vitality on every level: physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. They understand that a well mother means a well family, means a well community. Somewhere along the line we seem to have forgotten this in the west. But our bodies remember. Our bodies still need this time to heal, to rest, to bond with our babies. And our babies need our full presence, our closeness, our attention. Our babies need well mothers.

I offer physiologic postpartum care, education, and handmade herbal remedies crafted for the needs of motherbaby.

Mother. Herbalist. Physiologic Postpartum Care Provider.

After sitting at the feet of mamas, hearing their stories, and witnessing them in their power, my own physiologic birth and postpartum gifted me an embodied knowing of what I had trusted to be true: stepping into motherhood can be full of pleasure. Soft, tender, milky bliss. Not always easy, but absolutely holy. 

This work is my prayer woven into service: that mothers may be empowered, resourced, nourished, and honored.
