Laura (She/Her)
Childbirth Educator & Registered Nurse
I am a mom of two, a labor and delivery nurse, and an educator. I am excited to offer you educational opportunities that can help you be more prepared and confident through your birth experience.
I was a labor and delivery nurse for over ten years, working at multiple different hospitals; teaming up with doctors, midwives, nurse practitioners, and other care providers; caring for women and families with different hopes, fears, backgrounds, and experiences—all giving me a broad view of what labor and birth can look like. I feel honored to have been a trusted resource, support, and advocate for so many families through their labor journeys.
Prior to becoming a nurse, I was a high school teacher for seven years. I have always had a passion for education, so it felt natural for me to combine my experience and skills and pursue a professional certification in childbirth education. I am proud to be a CAPPA-certified Childbirth Educator.
I believe there is tremendous value in being prepared for your own birth experience—in being ready to ask questions and having the background knowledge and mindset to be an active participate in your own care. Each birth story is unique, and there are almost always challenges, but I believe that knowledge and preparedness can help you achieve the birth experience you desire.
