The role of the father or partner is a profound part of the birth that I do not try to replace; I am here to support both of you in this process. Many partners find comfort in knowing that their most important role is to love the birthing woman. The love that she feels will aid her in giving birth. The more supported the woman feels, the more positive her birth experience will be.
The immediate postpartum period is a significant time of transition for you and your family . I honor the experience that you have just been through and support you as you get to know your baby and find your way in your new relationship. I look forward to meeting you again in a Soulful Mamas circle to witness the woman and mother you are blossoming into.

In the event that I am unable to attend your birth, I work with an amazing woman, Kristin Lang who will come as my replacement.

Her passion is to inspire women to find their own truth and wisdom within so they can approach pregnancy, birth and motherhood with more confidence.
