All About "The Nurtured Birth"

“The wisdom and compassion a woman can intuitively experience in childbirth can make her a source of healing and understanding for other women." -Stephen Gaskin

I've walked my own journey of very different births with each of my four children, from complicated hospital births including a transverse breech cesarean, to an unassisted birth in my car, and everything in between. These rich and challenging experiences awakened in me a deep and sacred passion for birth work. The Nurtured Birth emerged from my longing to simultaneously nurture and empower women to know the full scope of their options, to find their voice in the process, to self-advocate for their wishes, and to ultimately make peace with whatever path their birthing journey may take.
