Holistic Mother Care- Birth, Postpartum, Matrescence, Nervous System, Ritual Creation, & More
Meet Lauren
Hi! I'm Lauren- mother, holistic birth & postpartum doula, certified nutritional practitioner, matrescence educator, and trauma-informed somatic coach (now that's a mouthful!!!) - and I believe that motherhood isn't about what you do, it's about who you become.
My work is rooted in the raw, real, and beautiful truth that motherhood is a full-body, identity-shifting experience. It asks everything of us- our bodies, our boundaries, our belief systems,- and yet, it offers us a profound opportunity to come home to ourselves again and again, in a new way. That's the space I hold: one where you get to explore your shifting identity, your deepest needs, and your on-going healing, with curiosity and care.
I support mothers at all stages, from first-time pregnancy to 10 years+ postpartum, through hands on birth support, holistic postpartum care, virtual pocket doula sessions, ritual creation and facilitation, and my signature 1:1 Well Nourished Mother Integration sessions. In these sessions, we create a gentle, grounded container for you to process what’s unfolding, tune in to your nervous system, nourish your body, and build rituals and routines that feel resourcing and realistic. Through all of my offerings and services, I weave together nervous system regulation, matrescence education, nourishment, spiritual practice, and a deep trust in your innate wisdom.
I became a doula and coach not because I'm obsessed with birth itself- but because I'm obsessed with women. With mothers. With helping you feel seen, heard, and honoured through the messy, magical, shape-shifting work of raising humans.
Whether you're navigating burnout, grief, rage, softness, joy, or pleasure- I'm here to remind you that nothing about you needs fixing. You're not broken. You're becoming. And you deserve full-body support as you do.
This is your permission slip to mother your own way. To ask for more. And to receive it fully.
