Thank you for taking the first step toward a journey with support and advocacy for your birth and after birth (postpartum). It is my hope to change the way parents are supported after giving birth.

In many cultures a new parent is given 40 days of time to recover in quiet and supportive homes. I recognize that support prior, during, through and after birth is so important to a birthing parent’s physical and mental health. This support is especially important for young adults becoming parents.
There are few places to go for non-judgmental conversations and support as a young parent in the Lane County community. I would like to see young parents have an opportunity to ask questions, have a safe space to share their fears around birth, support with planning a life with a child and to become a confident parent. I accept I accept OHP-Trillium and Pacific Source.

I have lived in Eugene since 2008 and it has become my home. My favorite role in my life is motherhood. I have 2 daughters. It was a challenge in the beginning and later affected my mental health as the struggle continued. As a solo parent, due to the cultural norms, solo parents are often not provided proper supports to thrive in parenthood. One way to change this for future mothers was to prepare as a doula who could walk side by side a parent for a portion of their parent journey.
I was fortunate to have vaginal births for both daughters and feel that my recovery after birth went as well as it could. I studied and graduated from OSU with a BA.

Together we can plan for healthy birth with conversations around:
