About Me
I am honored to be your Moon Sister.
Hello, my name is Monica. I am training to be a certified postpartum doula through Birth Arts International. I am certified in both adult and pediatric CPR, AED, and First Aid through the American Red Cross.
As a mother, I understand first-hand the numerous and often conflicting joys, complexities, and challenges that the postpartum can bring to each individual. It is a major life and identity change that is best weathered with the community of others.
Despite being well-informed about birth, I failed to understand the significance of the post-birth period until I was in it. I then realized how critical it is that parents have support and help. I dove deep into learning all I could about it through friends, books, videos, trainings, and on a personal level. My passion is to help others have the best postpartum and to cherish and enjoy the sacred phase to its fullest. I left my licensed professional career of over 10 years to embrace this new passion. Serving others in this way gives me immense personal fulfillment.
In my everlasting drive to better myself and help others, some of my goals include becoming hirable through insurance to aid people of all income levels, becoming officially certified in breastfeeding education, and training in the art of postpartum belly binding.
