Welcome!

Hi! I'm Crystal.
Lovingly supporting mothers, babies & families for over 25 years.

I provide physiologic care for women, focusing primarily on homebirth and the tender first six weeks after birth, rooted in the wisdom of traditional postpartum practices from around the world. Bringing forth new life can be an intense, beautiful and mystical journey, one that touches the deepest parts of our being. This profoundly transformative experience deserves to be honored, nurtured, and held with reverence.   

 

Many modern birthing practices in the U.S. overlook the innate power and divinity we each carry within.  My intention is to revive and share the ancient, heart-centered ways of caring for women in the childbearing year to give them the loving support they deserve and truly honor the sacredness of this life-altering transition.  By returning to the roots of holistic birthwork, we create space for mothers to heal deeply—physically, emotionally, and spiritually—so they can thrive and step into motherhood with strength, grace, and empowerment. 

 

As a homebirthing mother of three, I bring genuine compassion to my work and a calm, nurturing confidence that helps facilitate a peaceful start to your parenting journey. My in person offerings are provided in Santa Cruz, Monterey, and Santa Clara counties.  Travel live-in care offered based on availability.

​

Thank you for being here & I look forward to connecting soon.

Be well!
