I have always been fascinated by the miraculous ability that most women have to conceive, grow a child and a placenta, give birth and then nourish our children. These are exciting and empowering experiences worthy of recognition and celebration. I had the amazing opportunity to begin attending births while I was in high school and have been captivated ever sense. I love seeing parents and families grow in confidence and become empowered by their experiences and by their birth and parenting choices.
I have been married to a wonderful and supportive man for many years. Together we have four thriving adult "children", two wonderful daughters in law and a terrific son in law. We also have five fabulous grandchildren.
I can usually be found creating something that brings me joy, whether it be creating creams for my Wandering Rose products, encapsulating placentas, sewing, cooking or growing herbs for tinctures and remedies with the intention of bringing peace and wellness to myself and others.
I attended my placenta encapsulation training through Big Belly Services in Seattle WA. I received my labor and postpartum doula trainings through the Seattle Midwifery School which is now part of Bastyr University. My birth doula certification was earned through The Pacific Association for Labor Support (PALS), and my postpartum doula certification was earned through DONA International. I've studied Midwifery Birth Assisting through Northwest Birth Assistants and have worked with many of the Spokane WA and Coeur d'Alene ID midwives. I am trained in CPR and the Neonatal Resuscitation Program as an (NRP) Provider. I have taken OSHA training and courses in Universal Precautions and I am also a former La Leche League leader.
