"You can ask an 80 year old woman what she had for lunch and she won't remember, but you ask about her birth and she will remember every moment."

"The four women chatted over my head when the pangs subsided, and cooed encouragement when the pains returned. They put fruit juice in my mouth and wiped me down with sweetly scented towels...massaged my legs..."

This is what every woman deserves; a woman who will preserve their birth experience by giving loving physical, emotional and knowledgeable support. As Ina May Gaskin says "your body is not a lemon". If you know and believe you are capable, then you will be.

I provide birth services to families in the North County of San Diego. I believe passionately in the birth process and am incredibly blessed to be doing what I love. Giving Birth to a baby is so much more than a physical phenomenon; it is a key life event full of emotion and meaning.  Whether this is your first baby or seventh, if you are expecting twins or even more, I can help to ease the transition through birth and the postpartum period.
