Philosophy of care
Honoring the Continuum - Sacred & Sustainably | Rooted in the Village Way
The way I offer care is woven with intention. It’s a relationship. A rhythm. A shared tending.
As a birth worker, my offerings are guided by intuition, deep tradition, and sacred resonance. I walk with you through the thresholds of pregnancy, birth, postpartum and the liminal spaces of women’s wellness— not just with skills, but with presence. This care is relational, rooted in trust, and centered in the energetic connection between mother and guide.
Birthwork calls for deep presence, time, devotion, and full-hearted availability. It also asks for sustainability — so I can continue showing up in wholeness, and so you can feel held in a way that is rooted, consistent, and true.
This weaving of tending and mending is potent medicine. I practice the old way. The right way.
Before modern systems shaped care, there was the village.
Women showing up for women. Offering what they had. Receiving what they needed.
This care remembers that rhythm — one of reciprocity, reverence, and real connection.
.
This is continuity. This is conscious care.
This is the village way. This is the woman’s way.
The wise way. The sacred way.
We shape something that feels good to both of us, because that’s how care was meant to be.
You offer what you’re able — I offer what I carry
There is no template, no timeline, and no single way through. Just a shared space to name what’s real and to find the path that supports us both.
You won’t find a number here. You’ll find an open hand. A place to begin. A sacred conversation.
And together, we’ll shape the way forward — just as our grandmothers always did.
About the Exchange
Below is a gentle framework of the exchange of energy, time & care shared in my work.
Everything I offer is guided by the village way—a tradition of women supporting women. Some of my wellness offerings do have purposeful set values —
this is to support the sustainability and longevity of this work, the time and presence it requires, and the life I’ve built walking alongside women.
But honoring the old ways means more than that. I hold space for care that is relational, creative, and grounded in trust. This care is never meant to feel overwhelming or out of reach. You deserve to be deeply cared for. You are worthy of being mothered by the mothers.
All that nourishes your body, mind, and spirit should be accessible. I believe every woman deserves the highest quality of care, no matter her financial situation.
What matters most is that the exchange feels clear, respectful, and nourishing on both ends. You are not expected to give beyond your capacity. All of this exists to keep this work in the realm of the sacred, not the transactional.
Please reach out if you feel called to this kind of support. We will connect and find the right way to work together—one that honors us both and carries the medicine of the old way into the now —
With love

— What Working Together Looks Like —
-
Each journey is unique. Each woman arrives with a different song in her bones — I honor this.
Once your birth window is held, we begin with presence. We sit together slowly and speak from the heart about the liminal space: what it means for you, your baby, your family. We talk about what kind of support feels nourishing — whether that’s prenatal visits, postpartum tending, ceremony, healing work, or simply being witnessed. This is where we begin.
From there, we co-create an exchange that feels aligned and intentional. This might look like:
• A monthly rhythm of giving — a payment plan that feels steady and manageable
• A barter of gifts or time — offering something in trade, like a skill or service
• A conversation — if you’re unsure what you can offer, we sit gently and talk. You speak your truth, and I meet you there. Together, we choose what honors your reality.
Once we agree to walk together, I open a sacred space in my life — for you, your baby, and/or the mystery that unfolds.
I prepare my heart. I make space in my days. I carry your name in prayer. I say no to many things so I can say a full yes to you.
To honor that, I invite you into deeper conversation around financial commitment — not as a fee, but as a gesture of mutual trust. It holds your birth on my altar. It says:
I am walking with you.

Tending & Mending the Thresholds
Support for Loss, Miscarriage, or Abortion
Not every path is linear. Not every birth is a beginning. Some thresholds arrive quietly—heavy, tender, uncertain.
Others are filled with decision, reflection, or goodbye. This space is for the in-between moments.
The ones that may not need a full journey, but still deserve to be witnessed and held with deep care.
Whether you’re preparing for birth and seeking clarity, or navigating loss, miscarriage, or abortion— you are welcome here.
You are not meant to walk these places alone. These sessions are not “services.” They are sacred pauses.
A soft landing.
A moment to rest, to speak, to be seen.
⸻
Grief as Ceremony
Support for Loss, Miscarriage, or Abortion
Not all journeys end in birth. Some end in stillness. Some in choice. Some in goodbye.
I’m here for those moments, too—with reverence and tenderness.
I offer grief care that honors the depth of what you’re carrying:
• In-person or virtual support
• Grief-centered Closing of the Bones
• Womb steaming & herbal support
• Integration sessions
• Private ceremony or ritual
