Welcome

With over 15 years experience as a doula and 5 years as a massage therapist, my heart is for each mama to have a positive pregnancy and birth experience. Everything I offer is in support of mamas and expectant families to grow and thrive.

Whether you visit for a massage, come for a class, choose placenta encapsulation or are looking for a Doula you are certain to find support for your birthing journey.

Encapsulation:

I struggled a lot after the birth of my first child – low milk supply, PND symptoms, etc – and I heard that placenta encapsulation had the potential to help with these issues.

My recovery and milk supply were 100% better with this birth than with my first birth! In part, this had to do with my shorter labor and the time of the birth. But I’m certain the capsules also gave me more energy, helped me be more balanced, and increased my milk supply.

I would definitely recommend it. Placenta encapsulation made the recovery after my second birth so much easier than the recovery after my first birth.

My labor was very long. Way longer than I planned it to be, but it was bearable and empowering. And I DID IT! Mel helped me so much, gave me so many great pointers such as reading birthing affirmations and listening/creating a birthing playlist to help me prepare my mind for birth. Mel durning my labor was incredible. She made me and my husband comfortable. If she wasn’t helping me through the contractions she was helping my husband, wether it was him trying to help make me comfortable or her supporting him through the process. Mel gave us so much support during our labor. She truly was our backbone.
