Postpartum Care

Serving Families in Boulder, CO and Beyond

You deserve to feel seen -in all your real, radiant, messy, miraculous humanness.

Through heartfelt photography and holistic postpartum care, I help growing families slow down and savor what matters: the tender glances, the quiet strength, the in-between moments that often go unnoticed but mean everything.

Whether you're welcoming a new baby, navigating a new chapter, or simply trying to rest and remember who you are - I’m here to offer support, beauty, and presence.

For over 20 years, I’ve been devoted to the healing arts — blending my passions for birthwork, herbalism, art, creative expression, and care. From soulful photo sessions to overnight newborn support, from tea blends to hand-thrown pottery, everything I offer is infused with love, intention, and a deep belief in the power of tending to ourselves and each other.

Why Work With Me?

1. I honor you and where you are.
Sometimes, what you need most is to be seen, heard, and held — without judgment or “shoulds.” Together, we’ll find compassionate, manageable solutions that truly support you.

2. Emotional, physical, and practical support.
Let go of overwhelm. I can blend a calming tea, create a personalized flower essence, or fold that mountain of laundry. I’m here to bring peace to your daily life.

3. Reawaken with new energy.
When you’re rested and nourished, everything shifts. Your spark returns. Life feels lighter. Your partner’s jokes might even be funny again.

I practice on the ancestral lands of the Arapaho, Ute, and Cheyenne Nations (Boulder, Colorado), deeply inspired by the Rocky Mountains and the remedies of the high desert.
