I provide information as well as physical and emotional support to help ensure that the birth space is conducive to the new family's ideal birth. I view birth as one of the most holy & blessed events that people partake in and I want to help make your birth truly your own!

Many times families are made to feel that their “alternative” choices go against science. That they are frivolous, rooted in selfish choices instead of legit science, & are backwards instead of progressive.
But many of these “alternatives” are the OG ways to have babies. It’s good to remember we’ve had babies longer without medicine than we have with.
So for those who are trying to keep their birth low to no intervention, it’s wise to know that there is science backing up your wants & needs!
The entire process of birth is one big hormonal process. Hormones can’t always be controlled by people, medicine, & technology. No pill automatically makes you feel safe in an unsafe feeling environment. So much of this process is driven by environment, support, & connection.
🧠thinking positively, praying, reading scripture can all change your brain!
💡Environment is important! Flourescent lights have been proven to impede labor. And a calm space is shown to increase the flow of oxytocin.
🤵‍♂️The best outward source of oxytocin is a supportive & loving husband. Having people in your space that personally know you & are providing continuous support affect birth positively! Women feel more safe & calm, leading to free flowing oxytocin & endorphins.
💉It has been proven that for some women epidurals can slow down contractions. The sensations of labor guide women in doing what their baby needs them to do.
👶Why does labor start when it does? There’s research to say when the baby’s lungs are finished developing! And labor presents itself in a way that could be working best for mom & baby. When we alter just for the sake of speeding it up we could be causing stress to both.
🤱And there’s a lot of research showing skin to skin helps baby regulate on the outside! Babies are stressed when seperated from their mom because it’s a survival instinct! They tend to look better when kept with her.
🩸1/3 of baby’s blood volume remains in the placenta after birth. Ensuring your baby gets it all is scientifically proven.
