Build your postnatal village to heal your mind and body

Two mamas and postnatal healthcare practitioners here to support your journey

I am a Mother, a Wife, an INNATE Postpartum Practitioner and trained Doula, Breastfeeding counsellor and family mediator.
My own postpartum depletion experience led me to discover and immerse myself in the ancient, cross-cultural postpartum traditions with Rachelle Garcia at INNATE Traditions, to heal my mind, body & soul so that I could share them with the women in my community. My quest to find out the root cause of what blocks humans from living a thriving life brought me deep into the study of pre- and perinatal psychology & physiology where I continue to deepen my understanding of this growing field of work as volunteer doula with the Siena House.
My husband and I are grateful to be raising our sweet, feral daughter in Santa Cruz, where we have co-created a life that is deeply rooted in connection to nature, ourselves, each other and the community. We are passionate about living in alignment with the natural rhythms and supporting other conscious parents on this path.

I am a mother, a wife, a surfer, and an athlete. Motherhood has been a journey of embracing a new version of myself. I found a new respect for the beauty of this community after becoming a parent. My husband and I are so grateful to be able to raise our daughter in this community, surrounded by the ocean and redwoods.
After the birth of my daughter, I was surprised by how different my body was, mainly the loss of physical strength I was not expecting. There is a season for healing and then a season for building functional strength postpartum. I am dedicated to guiding you through that entire journey to feeling back in your body or even stronger than before pregnancy. I help mothers return to what brings them joy while maintaining an active lifestyle with their babes. I believe that it takes a village to support a mother. I want to share the same support to mothers that I received from my community - full of nourishment, guidance, and connection.
I am trained in prenatal and postpartum functional fitness under Jenny Putt, Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist. I have my Prenatal and Postpartum Athleticism certification under Brianna Battles.
