About BabyMoon
Like a honeymoon…the term “Baby Moon” has come to mean many different things but one aspect is a constant fixture: time away. This can be done in a secluded location or in the comfort of your own home.
People who are drawn to a BabyMoon have been searching for a way that helps women create the sacred space necessary for birth preparation and prenatal bonding.
Through a holistic program of relaxation, visualizations and meditation, ritual, and education, women connect with themselves and their babies in a deeper way. They are reinforced in trusting that their bodies know how to bring their babies into the world in the calm and gentle way that Nature intended.
My background in sacred ritual, spiritual exercises, reiki energy healing, and natural childbirth education has given me a variety of tools to drawn on in creating this unique experience.
I was drawn to pregnancy related retreat work from my own instinctive need to create a BabyMoon for my second child. I yearned to draw apart from the hustle and bustle of life and focus on the upcoming birth and the ramifications it had on my life and the life of my family.
I have also found in working with moms that it is important to take time afterwords to integrate the birth into one’s life both energetically and emotionally. So the experience does not stop with the prenatal retreat, but also includes postpartum birth circles for mom and baby.
Today, I am happy to share that experience with you and the many moms I come in contact with through my birth work.
