Birth is meant to work.
I'm here to help you protect what Mother Nature has already gifted you – your innate ability to gestate, birth and nurture a baby.
Safe. Supported. Confident.
Hi Mama,
I’m Greta - birth doula & childbirth educator in San Marcos, TX.
I'm also a mother to 2 awesome boys, both born peacefully at home – what I talk about birth is lived and embodied.
The way I work has been shaped largely by traditional midwives as well as my background in mental health.
I believe that women (including You!) deserve much more than an ok feeling when going through the biggest rite of passage one can possibly experience in life (yes, that's what birthing a baby really is!)
Pregnancy and birth are processes as natural as breathing and yet can be so transformational and powerful.
I'm here to support you in achieving the experience that you desire.
Services
Pregnancy & Birth Support
Pregnancy and birth care should reflect your unique personal story, emotional needs and values.
Every person that cares for you and that’s in your birth space affects the flow, therefore you should not settle for any less than great connection with your caretakers and only hire those that feel like a great match.
Fertility Awareness Mentorship
Your menstrual (ovulatory!) cycle is a vital sign that represents your reproductive and overall health. When you know how to read the ever-changing biomarkers throughout your cycle, you’re continuously receiving essential information about what’s going on in your body.
Fertility awareness method enables you to know which days of your cycle are fertile and which are not – a win/win for either wanting to conceive or avoid pregnancy naturally.
Differently than hormonal birth control that shuts your hormonal system down (!) the fertility awareness method helps you live in sync with your hormones.
What they say...
”Oh my! Greta, in so many beautiful ways, you helped me to come into my powerful presence as a mama, and you made me feel comfortable. We talked about fears, concerns, and things I wished for within the birthing experience for my son. You kept conversation up around my nutrition and nourishment, ensuring I kept a log of all that I was ingesting and if I was hydrating-which helped so much during work days and weeks.
During birth, you were grounded, calm, and attentive to me - massaging my body, providing assistance as I changed positions, walked, feeding me snacks, and yes! You even wiped my bottom when I released before birthing my sweet Adjaye! You sang to me, with me, brought your birthing comb for me to hold, and also made sure to ask me what I wanted within my home, scents, dim lights, quiet, or stillness. You were such beautiful grounded support for me, Adjaye & Raymond.
You being in our home will always be a blessing, you captured moments in pictures, videos, or by showing up and being there to tag team with Raymond when he got tired. Our Doula Angel <3”
