Attends hospital births? All Hospitals
I enjoy supporting families in autonomous births within the hospital setting. I work with clients to have an empowering birth journey no matter how the process unfolds through deep discussions around the birth process and informed consent within our medical system..

Attends birth center births? No Birth Centers
There are no Birth Centres in BC

Attends home births? Any Home Birth
I love attending home births and supporting families as they prepare their sacred birthing space. Part of our prenatal visits is spending time providing evidence based information on what to expect, as well as the safety of birthing at home so that you and your family feel confident and excited about your choices.
