Prenatal Services

Perinatal mentoring bridges the gap between medical care and lived experience. More than a class or rushed and fragmented appointment. Perinatal mentoring is a relationship-based approach to birth preparation that weaves together continuity, education, body preparation, emotional processing and advocacy support throughout your journey. Your personal nurse navigator, childbirth educator, doula and bodyworker dedicated to supporting you through your unique experience. 

​

Together we'll prepare for your birth journey with more than information, acknowledging the power our stories, our bodies and our intuition play in our birth experience. Packages are designed around your needs, choices and unique experience with each session shaped by where you are, physically, emotionally and within your pregnancy. 

​

Our work together may include:

Creating space to be heard, understood and supported as a whole person

Processing previous births or pregnancy experiences: making sense of past experiences so they don't follow you into this birth

Reviewing prior birth records or current care plans and translating medical language 

Birth and body prep: movement, breath, mindfulness and body awareness to support physiologic birth and nervous system regulation

Integrated Childbirth education: clear, evidence-based education offered gently and gradually based on your questions, experience and needs. Without fear or overwhelm. 

Labor support skills & partner preparation: Hands-on comfort measures, positioning and tools to help you and your support team feel confident and capable​

Birth plan planning & advocacy preparation: bridging personal values with understanding of medical systems policies and procedures so your preferences can be communicated clearly

Ongoing mentorship & continuity: support that evolves with you, offering reassurance, perspective and steadiness throughout pregnancy, labor and birth

​

​

Perinatal mentoring is not about creating a perfect birth or guaranteeing a specific outcome. It is about cultivating trust, clarity and support so that whatever unfolds is met with steadiness and care. It is ensuring your questions don't fall through cracks and no matter the path, you never walk alone. 

​

Support provided complements medical care but does not replace it. I do not provide medical diagnosis, treatment, or clinical decision-making. This work is meant to support you in understanding your care, preparing your body and nervous system, clarifying preferences and values and navigating conversations and choices with confidence​
