Welcome to Butterflies & Babies...
I have been involved with pregnant and nursing mothers and their families for many years. Becoming a parent for the first time or the fifth is an exciting and sometimes overwhelming time. I strive to make sure parents are prepared to welcome their new baby and that everthing from the first few minutes to the first few months are joyous....

Childbirth Education
Doula
Breastfeeding Support
Benefits of having a doula:
Shorter labor, less medication, induction and augmentation of labor and fewer Caesarian deliveries.
Newborns in supported births have lower rates of fetal distress or admission to neonatal intensive care units.
Women report greater self-esteem, less depression, higher regard for their babies and their ability to care for them and higher satisfaction with their partner.
Doulas help foster a more relaxed postpartum environment as well, and enhance early mother-infant relationships, breastfeeding and family adjustments.
