Hypnobabies Instructor and Hypno-Doula since 2015, Babywearing Educator since 2011.
Educating new families and making their transition into parenthood easier is a huge passion of mine. I began that journey in 2011 as a Volunteer Babywearing Educator, with Babywearing San Diego, and continued leading that organization until 2018. Also in 2011, I began teaching Babywearing 101 and 102 at Babies in Bloom Birth and Wellness Center. I received my HCHI (Hypnobabies Childbirth Hypnosis Instructor) and HCHD (Hypnobabies Childbirth Hypno-Doula) certifications from Hypnobabies in 2015 and also enjoy teaching preschoolers at Babies in Bloom's Sibling Preparation Class.
The birth of my second daughter in 2012 was an incredibly empowering (and very comfortable!) Hypnobabies birth and is a large part of what inspired me to become an instructor (feel free to read her birth story here: http://birthwithoutfearblog.com/2012/11/15/42-weeks-homebirth-using-hypnobabies/ ).
I am thrilled to do this work... it truly fills my heart. I would love to help your family find new tools and education to have an easier, more comfortable and joyful birth.
Thank you for visiting and Happy Birthing!
