In birth, both a child and a mother are born.
The of
Authentic Birth Co.
AUTHENTIC Birth Co believes in genuine and sincere relationships. You can be open in your dreams, strengths, and desires, and also with your questions, worries, and fears. The path to birth can be a winding one, so having dedicated support from someone who has both experience and professional training can be just the thing you need. Plus, there’s no judgement here, so you’re safe to explore and make the best choices for you and your family.
I will support you emotionally, physically, and educationally throughout your BIRTH. Before the big day, we'll prep and plan together, including your partner, to find what's best for you. When in labor, I'll come ready when you need me. You'll have my full commitment and focus in helping you navigate the birth of your sweet baby! Whether it be counterpressure for pain, words of encouragement, relaxing massage, warm compresses, or progressive position changes, a doula has many things to offer!
The COLLECTIVE is the heart of Authentic Birth Co. I believe in the strength of community and that pregnancy and motherhood are not meant to be done alone. This is a space for mamas to come together to learn, grow, and support one another! I’m so honored to be able to offer and host this optional benefit to all mamas at Authentic Birth Co.

I'm passionate about supporting parents through pregnancy, labor and birth, postpartum, and beyond. While every journey is different, we all need knowledge, encouragement, and genuine support to navigate it with confidence.
