Offerings
Birth Doula
Every birth is a Unique rite of passage and however, you choose to birth your child should be honored and celebrated. Birth is a sacred moment in time that is transformational and raw, it is a time where you can surrender, listen, and receive. As your doula, my intention is to hold space and support you through the transition from pregnancy to parenthood, to educate, advocate and most importantly empower the birthing person and their families to trust their intuition.
As we prepare for the birthing process and the arrival of your baby, we will meet 2-3 times prenatally before labor. During these meetings in the comfort of your own home, we will get to know each other, and I will provide education, information, hands-on support, herbal baths, and foot soaks, along with physical and emotional support for You and your partner/support.
After birth, 1 visit during the postpartum period

Your placenta is not only a temporary organ that your body only makes when pregnant it is also your baby's life source, it delivers nutrients and oxygen to your baby and it also removes waste. It plays a major role in your pregnancy and the Placenta encapsulation ceremony is one way to honor and thank it for its journey with you and your baby.
What is Placenta Encapsulation?
Placenta encapsulation is a form of ingesting your placenta in a simple and easy way after giving birth to it. A ceremony honoring the work of the placenta involves burning sacred smoke, prayer, and a blanket of fresh herbs like Rosemary and dried herbs like Calendula, Rose, and Raspberry leaf. All of it is steamed together and then placed in a dehydrator overnight following grinding it and putting it into capsules. Every placenta is unique in size and the number of capsules will vary, usually, the number of capsules is 90-100. *Option to request different herbs and flowers used in the ceremony process
