Hi, I’m Barbara!

I have a lifelong passion for empowering and advocating for others. I’ve been supporting the women in my life through pregnancy and postpartum since 2009.

During the birth of my first child, the care I received was less than ideal, and I found myself advocating harder than ever for minimal interventions. With my second, I experienced an unassisted birth in the hospital because my care team had never seen an intervention-free birth.

These experiences led me to drastically change my career path. After leaving the corporate world to focus on raising my children, I discovered my passion for supporting and advocating for women throughout their pregnancies and births.

Outside of birth work, I’m all about family, both related and chosen. The people in my circle know I’m always just a call away. I’m deeply passionate about supporting the growth and development of my children, and I’m always learning and exploring new skills while maintaining a laid-back approach.

If you’re looking for someone who will help you feel supported and grounded, empower you to speak up for yourself, and advocate for your wishes when needed, I would be honored to support you. I also strive to help families build confidence and trust in themselves throughout childbirth and early parenthood.
