Birth Doula | We will meet for two prenatal visits to allow you to share your preferences for this labor and postpartum period and discuss how I can be most helpful to you. I provide emotional support, physical comfort, positioning guidance, breathing suggestions, pain reducing ideas and unbiased information. I will help you and your partner (if applicable) understand what options are available to you, given the type of birth you’re anticipating. I will be reachable 24/7 from 38 weeks until your labor. Once you are in early labor, I will join you either at your home or at the hospital and remain by your side until approximately two hours after baby is born. Once you are home and settled I will come for a postpartum visit. | $ 1,200 | Per Package |

Prenatal & Postnatal Yoga | Physical and emotional education on exactly what is happening throughout your life changing journey. Guidance towards a feeling of alignment within your body and sensitivity to any fluctuations in your physical, mental and emotional self. As a seasoned practitioner, I believe in meeting my students where they are and working from that place. Not only do we need to move our bodies when we are busy growing a human, but we need to remain mindful of our breath. The Asanas, or physical practices, you create prenatally will evolve throughout your pregnancy and will serve as helpful tools during your labor and birth experience. I also weave my Spinning Babies training into my teaching. Classes are offered one on one, with a partner or with other expectant friends or family. Post birth yoga sessions are designed to gently assist you as you return to your yoga practice, mindfully taking into account your birth experience. This a time of deep listening and surrendering to your body wisdom. | $ 30 | Per Hour |
