Healthy Mother Haven
A birth doula for Waxhaw families.
Waxhaw, Weddington and Marvin sit far enough south that your prenatal care and your birth may be in two different places. Knowing that drive — and having a plan for it — takes one worry off the list before labor ever starts.

Planning a home birth in Waxhaw instead? I support home births alongside your midwife, and a good deal of the preparation we do together matters most when you are birthing at home.
How I prepare Waxhaw mothers for birth
True birth preparation isn't only physical. We tend to the whole woman — so you arrive at your birth feeling strong, settled, and deeply supported.
Spiritually
Reconnect with the quiet wisdom of your body and meet birth as the sacred threshold it is — calm, present, and unafraid.
Physically
Nourishment, movement, and breath tailored to your body — so you can tap into its natural rhythm and labor with confidence.
Emotionally
A steady, unhurried presence beside you and your family — someone who holds space, answers every question, and never leaves your side.
Questions from Waxhaw families
Do you travel to Waxhaw?
Yes — Waxhaw is part of the area I serve, and there is no travel fee. The care and the price are the same whether you are in Waxhaw or in Charlotte proper.
Which hospitals do you support births at in Waxhaw?
Wherever you choose to birth. Most Waxhaw families deliver at Atrium Health Union or one of the other nearby maternity units, and I am beside you in the room the same way at any of them. I also support home births alongside a midwife.
When should I reach out if I live in Waxhaw?
Whenever you are thinking about it — including before you are pregnant. Earlier gives us more time to prepare together, but it is never too late to have someone with you.
