I love my job!
My Philosophy
I believe that next to being born, giving birth is the most important event in a woman’s life. Nothing compares to the day that you bring a new life into the world… NOTHING! I strongly believe that the experience of giving birth should not be feared but embraced and enjoyed. Through education, understanding, and support a woman should be able to give birth the way she & her family feels is best for them.
This should be the HAPPIEST day of their lives.
I believe that a woman should be able to make informed decisions regarding how and when she wants to give birth. Drug-free natural births to medical inductions with an epidural… ALL birthing women deserve to be educated, respected and supported. There is no “one-size-fits-all” in pregnancy, childbirth or parenting.
There is no right or wrong way… only YOUR way.
My job is to help you find your way… to educate you on your birth choices & rights as well as help you plan for the most life changing event you and your family will ever experience. I cannot promise a perfect birth. Sometimes things do not go as planned. However, through education and support I can help you come away with a positive birth experience that you and your family will remember forever.
