I believe that the childbearing season of a woman’s life is most often a normal one. With proper support, education, and preparation the labor and birth process can unfold physiologically. It is my goal to provide safe, high-quality, respectful care to everyone that I work with. I believe that a strong relationship between midwife and client produces better pregnancy and birth outcomes, and I work to keep communication flowing clearly and build trust throughout the prenatal period. I expect the process to be safe and low-risk, however, I am trained and ready for it to deviate from that path. I want to partner with clients, respect their past, present, and future, and help them discover the tools that they need in their current season of life.
