My global fee will be quoted during a meet and greet prior to deciding if we are a fit. There is a $2000 retainer fee, which reserves your spot in my practice for your due time, should we choose to work together.

Bio
The gentleness of patiently welcoming a baby in the home is a place of genuine joy for me. I do not feel pressure to intervene but rather sit in a place of stillness awaiting the inevitable. This is not to say that birth never requires support from a skilled provider but rather a skilled provider knows when they are needed. I endeavor to be a skilled provider that is capable of using my knowledge when it is needed but not to supersede the inner knowing of the birthing dyad.
What are your certifications and trainings?
I am a registered nurse for over 16 years and Certified Nurse Midwife, licensed in the State of NY since May of 2020.
What's your top piece of advice for an expectant mom?
Find a provider who makes you feel safe, a childbirth education class (ideally in person and tailored to your birth location) and an experienced doula!
What locations or areas do you serve?
I serve Suffolk County on Long Island, NY.
Are there any specialities in who you serve? (e.g. home birth, VBAC, etc.)
Home birth is my specialty
What drew you into working with parents-to-be?
I witnessed my first birth when I was 13, that of my brother born safely in our home. I too was born at home, as were four of my six siblings and thus my birth culture was shaped by this normalization of uncomplicated low risk birth.
