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

"just as a women's heart knows how and when to pump, her lungs to inhale, and her hand to pull back from fire, so she knows when and how to give birth."

birth is painful but it’s nothing like the pain you experience when you send your child off to kindergarten!!  brooks started kindergarten last week and he did great…i was a wreck.  i love spending time with my kids and i truly miss them when they are at school.  i have to remind their teachers how lucky they are that they get to spend the day with them!!

my hope is to help more postpartum families now that it’s just tula and i during the day.  i would also like to start a postpartum class.  mamas and/or dad’s and babies (birth to six months) could meet once a week for socializing, playing and a specific topic to discuss…breastfeeding, baby care, diapering, infant massage, vaccinations, co-sleeping, going back to work?…  i think i have the perfect space now and many new parents who might be interested!?

peace
-amy
