Family and Childbirth

I offer safe and inclusive care for all family structures and genders.

As a member of the poly community and a parent of two now-adult children, I understand how hard it is to find professionals to help with your children’s needs, and what kind of awkward questions you’ll get, when you’re poly. You won’t have to worry about those awkward questions with me!

I’m an academic life coach, working with high school and college students, to help them develop the skills they need to be successful in school. I also identify and work through various non-academic issues that require life coaching with my clients. If your teenager or young adult child is struggling with school, I can help them overcome their struggles and succeed!

One-on-one coaching, including: personalized issue identification and goal-setting; study, habit, and accountability systems and strategies; individualized action plans; written summaries of each session; video recordings of some sessions; and guaranteed recurring time slots each week.

Outside of coaching, students will also receive email and text message access and reminders, access to weekly online office hours, and access to courses in the Anti-Boring Approach to Powerful Studying program. Coaching also provides accountability for the student, which can be critical.

If the child is underage, parents may be included in some sessions; if the child is an adult, I provide a waiver form that allows me to discuss certain issues with the parents if necessary.

Sessions are held using Zoom video chat, so distance is not a limitation on service.

As your doula, I am here to guide you through your experience with labor support, on-call expertise and birth plan assistance. While my services are welcome to all, I specialize in helping the LGBTQIA+ community, those with unique relationship arrangements and individuals who aren’t afraid to make a statement.

I am a Certified Professional Midwife and Texas Licensed Midwife. I offer Preconception, Prenatal, Birth, and Postpartum care in the comfort of each client’s home. I work with first time parents, VBAC, Home Birth, Birth Center birth, Water birth, and more!

I speak English and a little Spanish. I serve AFAB people in the childbearing year. This includes preconception, prenatal, labor and delivery, postpartum care, and newborn care. I delight in my unique clientele! A lot of queer, polyamorous, and otherwise non-mainstream folks come to me. I am comfortable with any faith, race, ethnicity, ability, gender, and sexuality.

A doula is available before or after a baby joins a family to provide support and education for the family- this can include things like soothing techniques, feeding (lactation or bottle feeding (formula, donor, or pumped milk), infant development, sleep, diapering (cloth and disposable), and more, I’m here to answer all your questions or to refer you to the right professional for help. In person I am available for meal preparation, light house work, animal tending, comfort measures for the birthing person, and more. This support can happen in person with proper social distancing and proper precautions from myself, but it also can happen 100% virtually. A babywearing consultant can help you troubleshoot why wearing your baby isn’t comfortable, teach you how to use your carrier, provide fit checks, and if you’re local I can drop off a properly cleaned and sanitized collection of carriers before having a virtual session of helping you learn and discover what is most comfortable for you. Sliding scale available (if you can’t pay, I still want to help, contact me). LQBTQIA+ friendly.
