Pathways of Pella offers Heritage Builders, a program designed to help you prepare for motherhood. Through individual counseling, educational materials, and material assistance before and after pregnancy.

Seeing patients prenatally is proven to lead to more success with breastfeeding by providing specific education regarding the establishment & maintenance of their milk supply & a plan of care prior to birth. When seeing the birthing parent & baby postnatally, both go through a thorough assessment to determine any complications with breastfeeding.

As a labor and birth doula, I accompany the birthing person throughout pregnancy and labor to provide educational, emotional, and physical support. I am equipped to support you in all birth settings such as hospital, home, or birth center

Our pelvic health specialists are trained to evaluate pelvic related disorders, including but not limited to, urinary and fecal incontinence, pelvic/abdominal pain, and pre-natal and postpartum care.

My philosophy as a doula is that every birth is indelibly memorable and that every birthing person should feel heard, respected, and deeply cared for. My goal is to provide you and your birth partner (if applicable) with the evidence-based resources you need to decide on your ideal care and the continual, unbiased support to make your best decisions for your best birth.
