​​Hello and welcome to my site!
My name is Steph, I am a mother to Sawyer, Emett, Henley & Wren.  I am a Certified HypnoBirthing® Childbirth Educator, a Registered Professional Counsellor, a former foster parent and a Birth Doula.  I was born and raised in 100 Mile House before moving to Edmonton to pursue post-secondary education and lastly finding my forever home in the beautiful Okanagan Valley.  I am pleased to offer prenatal, birth, labor and postpartum services to women and their families.
The journey to motherhood was not easy for me. I was diagnosed with “unexplained infertility” and spent nearly 10 years trying to conceive. During this time I felt completely torn as I watched my closest friends, co-workers, acquaintances and siblings get pregnant and have children.  I was constantly reminded of my inability to have what I so desperately wanted; while at the same time so unbelievably in love with all of the babies in my life.  During that time I chose to give my heart to children who needed it most and became a foster parent. 
My core belief is “your body, your baby, your birth”. I feel that each birthing individual and their family deserve the opportunity to be heard, to be presented with evidence-based information and to ultimately have the pregnancy and birth experience that they desire.  The amazing soul changing journey of pregnancy and birth is filled with choices- these decisions are highly personal, and as such I am happy to support you in whichever choices makes the most sense for you.
My history has brought me through miscarriage, infertility, divorce and hardship. It has also brought me here- to finding my passion as a birth support worker.  With the love and support of my husband, friends and extended family coupled with my experience, education and community connections I will whole heartedly commit myself to your birth experience.
