2023 was quite the year for me, both professionally and personally. It was filled with so much love and joy, yet also had its fair share of loss and grief. I want to thank all the families I was able to serve this past year and let you know how much I truly cherish all the memories you let me be a part of. 2024 will be a much slower year as I will be bringing my own baby into the world come Spring!

Enjoy these fun stats I was able to gather for 2023

I know I say this every time I share the story of a babe I helped support come earthside , but THIS time I especially warn you...seriously...have your tissues close at hand.
This is a very intimate birth story written as a poem from the perspective of a loving brother present during the transformative experience he witnessed as his sister became a mother and he became an uncle.

Oh my 💜 is so full today! I received this amazingly thoughtful (and humorous) gift. My clients know me so well

I have a client who has a whole deep freezer FULL of breastmilk and then some, that she’d like to donate!
Some of it is expiring in a couple months that was stored after her first babe born in 2020 but she’s still adding to it daily with extra milk as she’s currently 4 weeks postpartum.
She eats meat and dairy, minimal caffeine, unvaxxed but had covid last January(2021). Lives in Horton.
Please let me know if anyone is interested, you’d be helping her just as much as she’s helping you!
