At Root and Vine, we provide comprehensive support for mothers through every stage of their journey, ensuring evidence-based birth practices, various comfort measures, and a nurturing environment during labor.

Our services are designed to empower women with knowledge and confidence, fostering a positive birth experience.

Holistic care tailored to your needs, focusing on wellness and support throughout your motherhood journey.

Prenatal visit: Include educational and emotional support. Additionally, I will help you with writing a birth preference plan. We will discuss, in advance, the choices you are entitled to during labor and delivery, and ensure that you have a good plan in place for your postpartum period. We will also review options you have for post-birth care for your newborn. I also provide resources and bridge the gap with referrals to local providers as needed and desired. These sessions are catered to what you need.

Labor and Birth support: Throughout your labor and birth until parents and baby are settled. Root and Vine doulas have specific training to help the birthing person throughout labor to assist with continuous progression through a series of positional movements. I also utilize a traditional Mexican Rebozo in different ways to add to comfort measures.  If desired, I prefer to show the birthing person’s partner these methods to aid to them working as a team throughout labor. I believe in honoring of the “Golden Hour” for baby and parents to bond. If desired, I will assist/observe mother and baby’s first latch and provide basic lactation support. I will assist birthing person or partner in establishing proper skin-to-skin with baby.

We also offer personalized postpartum care, ensuring you feel supported and confident moving into your new role as parent.

Our holistic approach combines evidence-based practices with a deep understanding of natural parenting, helping mothers thrive after birth. We believe in nurturing both the body and mind, creating a safe space for families to grow and flourish.

Tailored care for every mother.

Postpartum visit: Lactation support, to answer questions, talk through your birth experience & check-in on where you are in recovery.

Postpartum care: Can include breastfeeding support, newborn care, emotional support, light household help. These times can include cooking meals for your family, laundry and chores that need to be completed, help with nursing, tending to your baby while you REST, running errands for you, non-medical tasks that are needed to support you after the birth of your baby, etc. This time is for you, as the mother, to feel supported and relieve some of the stresses that the immediate postpartum period may present.
