It wasn’t until I had my first daughter that I realized how much my birth transformed me. Postpartum was a lot different than I had imagined. I was prepared to become a mother, I wasn't prepared to become a new person. It was raw and beautiful but I kept thinking,  "why isn't anyone talking about this!?"

​

As my daughter grew, I too grew in new ways.

I decided to leave the corporate world to start

The Nurtured Mother.

​

​It’s become my passion to nurture mothers, so they can focus solely on their birth, their new little one and enjoy every moment of postpartum. 

​

I'm a certified doula through DONA International and a placenta encapsulation specialist through PBi. I'm also a member of the Licking County Doula Collective and serve alongside two other amazing doulas to bring one of a kind services to our county.

Birth and postpartum are generally thought of as a difficult period physically, mentally and emotionally. I believe with the right nurturing it can be the best time of your life!
