Educators
Childbirth, pregnancy and postpartum education are vital to the entire family experience. We believe parents deserve to feel prepared and empowered to make their experience their own. Unfortunately in this country, so much of pregnancy care is problem-focused, birth is medicalized and postpartum care is often inadequate. Those who seek out private perinatal education have better birth outcomes, feel more supported and feel more confident in caring for their babies. Through educating our pregnant and postpartum families, we can put the power back in their hands. And when the power is in their hands, we can hold their hands, shake their hands or give them high fives as only the beginning of their parenting journey.

As a nature therapy practitioner I connect pregnant women, mothers, infants, and children to the healing powers of nature through the Japanese wellness practice, forest bathing. I design outdoor experiences to provide health benefits for people who need a "dose of nature".

Helping and educating people has always been my passion as I have served many roles in this area which have all brought me to where I am today. In my online nutrition and FAM coaching practice, I help women learn about their menstrual cycle and gain insight into their own nutrition habits that can support their fertility and reproductive health. I also help women spot symptoms of hormonal imbalance to help guide them to seek support with their physicians, if needed.
