You are Magic Birth Co
a home for empowered birthwork and physiological birth advocacy
Women’s bodies are built for birth. In many cultures around the world, humans have moved away from trusting and supporting women to birth their babies in the ways that come instinctively to them. This ancestral knowledge is deeply embedded within, and it can still be accessed with the right support, environment, and most importantly, with deep connection to self and inner knowing. It is my soul’s calling to support women through this incredible and metamorphic rite of passage.
Hi, I'm Heather
Birth Doula, Yoga Witch, Tarot Counselor
I am a compassionate and skilled birth doula, perinatal yoga instructor, eclectic witch, tarot counselor, health coach, and Usui Reiki practitioner, committed to helping birthing families to have empowering and transformative birth experiences. I am inclusive and serve a diverse and intersectional community.
I honor each individual’s unique birth journey. I believe that birth is a sacred and powerful event, and I work to create a supportive and safe environment for my clients. I am trained in a variety of techniques, including breathwork, visualization, and physical support to help my clients navigate the intensity of childbirth.
I also prioritize advocacy for my clients – it is of vital importance that your choices and preferences are respected and that you have access to the information you need to make informed decisions about your care. I am dedicated to helping transform the dominant culture of birth in this country to one that empowers women and upholds the sovereignty of their birth journey, that celebrates diversity and promotes compassionate care.
