"Birth is not only about making babies,
but about making mothers;
strong, competent, and capable mothers
who trust themselves
and know their inner strength."
- Barbara Katz Rothman
Welcome to Sacred Souls! Here, we are all about helping you adequately prepare for and equip you to navigate your way to a birth that results in a HEALTHY baby and mom, as well as and just as importantly, a positive, SATISFYING birth experience. Safety and satisfaction can intertwine beautifully prenatally, during birth, and postpartum with the right support. We are people on your birth team that SUPPORT you, TRUST you, and BELIEVE in you, no matter where your journey takes you and what decisions you make.
Come see how we can support your birth journey.
As a rite of passage, birth is transformative for all members involved. It is a journey that takes a woman far into the sacred depths within herself until she returns as the mother her baby came into the world for. A journey of this significance calls for solid information, intentionality, physical and emotional safety, love, honesty and aligned support.
You can find that here!
I serve growing families in the Wenatchee Valley and surrounding areas with the following options:
Birth Doula
As a certified doula, I am here to encourage, equip, and faithfully support you throughout your birth journey. I believe you and your baby's experience matters and I love to tailor my skillset to best fit your needs. This also includes a built-in, independent childbirth program and mentorship by wise-women throughout your pregnancy. Interested in learning more about my doula services?
Placenta Encapsulation
Yes, this is a thing! This practice has been widely reported by mothers to improve mood, energy levels, and breastmilk supply postpartum. This practice has also shown in research to significantly help with delayed milk production (after a c-section for instance) and postpartum depression. As an APPA trained encapsulator, I pick up your placenta, process it, and return it to you within 2-3 days after your birth.
Postpartum Doula
Want some physical, emotional, and/or educational support during your postpartum days as well? Let me take out your trash, meal prep, grocery shop, care for your baby while you get some much needed rest and a shower, launder your sheets and clothes, and clean your bathroom, so you have the support you need to recover from birth, transition as a family, and bond as you want with your baby with less stress and to-dos.
Elimination Communication Support
Ever wanted to learn how to do EC with your little one and have them out of diapers by walking or 16 months old? I was just like you when I was pregnant with my first, and let me be the one to tell you... yes, it works and it is a very precious, worthwhile, and empowering adventure. I offer in-person guidance, support, and resources for families wanting to do this with their little ones.
Body Ready Method Birth Prep
Obviously birth is a very physical event, and the course it takes has many factors, a big one being how balanced our bodies are and what range of motion they have. As a Body Ready Method Pro, I can help address these imbalances in your body and help you restore a fuller range of motion in your body through simple and gentle at-home movements to support a more straight-forward, physiological, low-intervention birth.
Birth Pool Rental
Need a birth pool for your birth? We have got everything you need, including floor liners, your own pool liner, underwater flashlight, thermometer, and so on. Delivery, set up, tear down, and pick up are all included in this package. Please contact me below with any additional questions and/or click on the button below to learn more and book.
