Birth Doula
Care provided during your childbearing experience:
Physical support: I offer an array of physical support throughout your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I am trained in the Spinning Babies techniques for easier births through fetal positioning. Balancing muscles, aligning with gravity, and moving your body towards a flexible strength may enhance the birth experience and add comfort in pregnancy and labor. My experiences using Spinning Babies are extremely positive! As a BirthFit! Professional, I am trained in the Functional Progression technique. This technique is a movement sequence that mimics the way babies naturally develop movement patterns—from the ground up, from the core outward. When practiced daily, the Functional Progression rehabilitates compromised core muscles (such as happens with pregnancy) and strengthens your core to move the way it was designed to move. Additionally, I offer massage, breath work, and rebozo sifting.
Emotional support: I offer compassionate and non-judgement support of your pregnancy, labor, and birth.
Informational support: To the best of my ability, I ensure you make informed decisions regarding your care.
