A love for babies has been at my core since the beginning.  In my mid twenties I spent a few years working at an inpatient drug and alcohol rehabilitation center for pregnant women and mothers.  While working here I also became certified to teach yoga and was able to offer the women in the program yoga along with continued parenting support.  This work inspired me to become a DONA certified Postpartum Doula and I furthered my yoga training to incorporate pre and postnatal yoga.

 

At the core of this experience was a desire to have a family of my own.
