A Mother Passionate About Natural Birth, Health, and Living


About

Hi, I’m Katie. This is my website. I started this thing when I was pregnant with my second son. At that point I was transitioning into the stay at home mom gig. I was also discovering that a hospital birth was not what our family wanted, and sort of late in the pregnancy, (week 30!) we decided to find a midwife for a homebirth. This is where the website began and has since been my avenue for writing about the wonderful journey our family is on.

A little about me:

  • I have 2 sons (Jackson and Archer)
  • I have 1 husband (John)
  • I have 2 kitties and 1 doggie (Jefferson, Lionel Richie, & Ruby)
  • Coffee is one of my favorite beverages
  • Currently in denial that I am a Hippie
  • I make Ring Sling baby carriers
  • I am pursuing a Birth Doula Certification from DONA
  • I was previously a Braille Transcriber (I know, who does that?)
  • My second son and I have the same birthday (This still amazes me)
  • I am an assistant coordinator for a local family and childbirth resources group
  • I (and a few other wonderful women) am working to open a center in Lafayette where women and families can receive education and resources for options in pregnancy, childbirth, and the early years of parenting. We are called the Natural Parenting Education Network.

So, there you have it. Thanks for visiting.
