Service Details
I would like to offer Mindfulness Childbirth Classes August 2024- a series of 4. They are a powerful preparation for childbirth and parenting and are strong medicine against stress, and trauma. I have taught these in California and am on Maui several months a year and want to offer this while I am there. Would love to hold them when you want, at Pacific Birth Collective.

About the Provider
I am a midwife, lactation consultant, and have a strong meditation practice. After practicing midwifery and lactation for 40 years, I now am teaching childbirth classes through mindfulness- being in the present moment. I strongly support families to be empowered with their births. I worked at Maui Memorial as the first midwife from 2006-2010 working very hard to support skin-to-skin care for the baby after birth, as well as to increase breastfeeding/chestfeeding rates. I love Maui and will teach on zoom and in-person when I'm here, to empower those giving birth and their ohana and help you prepare in a way that will help before, during, and after the birth.
