about the instructor

"If I can do it, so can you." I know from my own birth experiences that a woman's body was designed to give birth spontan- eously, vaginally, naturally. I have never felt more powerful as I did after the natural birth of my first daughter Mae. more about Amy

amy-with-chloe-cropped.jpgIn our culture, we have forgotten how to nurture and support postpartum women.  I have had the opportunity of helping many women adjust to their new role as mother.  I feel honored to be part of a new family getting to know each other.

For an hourly fee, I will come to your home and help you with breastfeeding, baby care and adjusting to your new baby and your new body.  The weeks after the birth of your baby can be emotionally and physically overwhelming.  I bring knowledge, experience and comfort to you, your partner and your baby. This is a time when it’s nice to have someone there to listen, give support and help you get things organized and on the right track.
