What a joy to attend the birth of this little one ❤️

Sarah and Daniel would like to announce the arrival of their beautiful baby girl, born at home on December 12, 2025! Weighing in at 8 lbs 1 oz and after a 2 hour active labor, her momma did an amazing job and discovered a strength that she didn’t know she had! Special thanks to Mountain Laurel Birth Services for assisting. 🌸

Happy Thanksgiving, friends! 🧡

Today my heart is extra full. I’m so grateful for all the ways God has blessed this work and the people He’s placed in my path. Being a doula is truly a great honor in my life, and I don’t take a single bit of it for granted.

🤎 I’m thankful for the incredible families who have invited me into their birth spaces this year. It is always sacred to witness your strength, your faith, and the beauty of new life.

🤎 I’m thankful for my fellow birth workers. Your friendship, support, and encouragement mean more than you know. It’s a gift to walk this calling alongside you.

🤎 And I’m so thankful for my own family, who cheer me on, support the late nights and on-call days, and love me so well through it all. I couldn’t do this without them.

As we celebrate today, I hope your homes are filled with peace, joy, gratitude, and the people who make you feel most loved.

Let’s rewrite the narrative:
Labor pain isn’t the problem. It’s the communicator.

It’s your body telling you to sway, squat, rise, get grounded.
Moan if you need to. Cry if you want to.
Allow yourself to release and surrender.

Every movement you make creates space.
Space for your baby to rotate, to descend, to be born.

When you understand what the pain is telling you,
you stop fighting your body and start working with it.

You and your baby are in this together.

✨ I LOVE consultation days ✨
There’s something so special about sitting with an expecting mother, hearing her story, and learning what she hopes for in her birth and postpartum journey. It’s a joy to get to share how a doula can support, advocate, and bring more confidence and calm into the process. And honestly, it fills my cup every single time.
I’ve met some of the sweetest families through these conversations, and many have turned into real friendships.
Feeling grateful today. 💛

It’s homebirth awareness week ❤️

Homebirth will always hold a special place in my heart. I’ve had two of my own babies at home surrounded by people who trusted the process right alongside me. Those experiences shaped not only how I view birth, but how I support birth today.

This week, I’m celebrating the families who choose home, the midwives who serve with wisdom, and the divine design of birth itself.

Have you ever thought about or experienced birth at home? I’d love to hear what “home” meant for you

✨ Did you know? For low-risk moms, hands-on (intermittent) fetal monitoring is recommended by ACOG, ACNM, COGC, and NICE — not continuous electronic fetal monitoring.

✨ This approach can lower your chances of a C-section or vacuum/forceps delivery and lets you move, labor, and birth freely — in whatever position feels right for you.

Were you offered options besides continuous monitoring? 💬
Ask your birth team about what’s available to you!

Pregnancy is more than waiting — it’s a season of becoming. The words you speak carry power, and Scripture is full of promises you can declare. You are held by the One who designed birth itself.

🌸 Save this for daily encouragement
🌸 Share with a mama who needs these reminders
🌸 Speak them out loud — let truth settle into your heart
