"NOT JUST ABOUT HOW TO CARE FOR A NEWBORN"

“I have noticed a shift in my clients ever since I started offering her class to my clients. The class is not just about how to care for the newborn but it dives in to the emotional and spiritual well being for both parents postpartum and preparing them for the incredibly dynamic shift that is to come for new parents. She harnesses the ritual of birth within postpartum that is not only the birth of the baby but the birth of the parents as two completely new people in this new world. She has both parents fully prepare for what is to evolve in not only themselves but for each other and how to continue to support one another in this time.”
