My journey into motherhood—becoming a first-time mom to twins—has deeply shaped why I’m so passionate about this work. Welcoming a baby is one of life’s biggest transitions, and the many changes that come with it can feel overwhelming at times. I’ve learned firsthand how true the saying is: “It takes a village to raise a child.”

I would be honored to be part of your village as you navigate your own path through birth, postpartum, and into parenthood.

With over 20 years of experience as a labor and delivery nurse, educator, lactation specialist and a mom myself, I bring not only clinical knowledge, but also compassion, understanding, and personal insight.

Wherever you are in your family-building journey, I’m here to support and empower you every step of the way.

Support during the entire pregnancy period can take many gentle and meaningful forms, depending on what you and your family need most.

I am at your service to offer you compassionate emotional and physical support, guidance with all forms of infant feeding—whether you’re nursing, bottle feeding, or pumping—caring for your baby while you rest and recharge, heartfelt conversations as you navigate your transition into parenthood, and referrals to trusted additional services if needed. Every family’s journey is different and I’m here to walk alongside you with care and grace.

Reiki is a nurturing complement to conventional medical care—and for me, blending different healing approaches brings the greatest harmony and benefit. From the very first Reiki session, I felt a deep calling to learn it and share its gentle, transformative energy with others.

During a Reiki session, you'll be welcomed to simply arrive, relax, and open your heart—and then softly receive, trusting that the healing unfolds just as it’s meant to, guided by universal life‑force energy. The experience can bring profound calm, balance, and renewal—and I’d be honored to share that journey with you. I warmly invite you to book a one‑on‑one or group session today.

In a mentorship session which I lovingly call Pláticas con tu Alma—Conversations with Your Soul—we begin by arriving together in a sacred, grounded space where you are fully welcomed, just as you are.

Each session opens with a gentle guided practice to help you center, settle, and connect to the present moment.

With kindness and care, we start by honoring whatever you're carrying in the present moment.  Through gentle heartfelt conversation, we allow deeper layers of awareness to emerge naturally. What may first appear as a challenge is often a gateway or access point—an invitation to explore the beliefs or patterns quietly shaping other areas of life.

As we stay with what arises, listening tenderly and without judgment, often deeper truths begin to surface. From my own experience I would say, true healing and transformation often begin with the simple act of witnessing what arises—with love, presence, compassion and most of all no judgement.

Mentorship sessions are offered both in person and via Zoom, with the option to include a Reiki session for a combined experience. Book a conversation with your soul today!
