Specialties
I prepare and help parents before, during, and after birth in a holistic and individualized way. Ultimately, I want the entire family to be empowered and educated through the birth experience.
As a Lactation Consultant (IBCLC), I provide education, support, and remedies in your own home for common breastfeeding issues, no matter the age of your baby. If you desire herbal remedies, I can help as a Certified Herbalist.
The Birth Boot Camp curriculum is used for classes for hospital births, out-of-hospital births, newborn care, and others. Ultimately, I want both of you to be empowered and educated through the birth experience. All classes come with a useful booklet.
I am also a certified birth and bereavement doula, supporting women and their partners during labor. I will get to know you prenatally, help you with comfort measures and information during birth, and then follow up afterwards to see if you need help adjusting to life with a baby.
If you need additional help postpartum, I also act as a postpartum doula. I can help with anything you need in the immediate postpartum. There is no reason to go it alone!
History
Established in 2013.
Power in Birth was born out of a great need for education in birthing women. With Alabama's high Cesarean rates and low breastfeeding rates, women are needing support and education about their choices and how to navigate the childbearing time in their lives.

Becoming a mother in 2003 was the hardest and most rewarding thing I have ever done. I have determined to help others learn through my experience. I want couples to have exactly the kind of birth and breastfeeding experience they imagine, while also handling any problems with full understanding of the pros and cons of each solution.
