Growing a family is a beautiful gift, but no aspect of it is easy. Fortunately parents have so many options when it comes to childbirth prep courses and breastfeeding resources these days. This variety is wonderful, but it can also be overwhelming. At "For the Love of Little Ones," I have designed a support system that is warm, honest, and easy to follow, while still delivering the highest quality of information. After becoming a mother myself, I knew I wanted to help as many parents as possible. I have poured my heart into building these courses to support parents in this transformative season of life. Additionally, you'll have my unwavering support long after the class ends. Together, we can navigate this beautiful journey of parenthood!
As cliché as it may sound, I became a nurse so that I could help someone every day. Even during my most challenging shifts in the hospital and clinical settings, my jobs have never really felt like "work." As much as I love and enjoy being a nurse, my favorite accomplishment is becoming a mother. My daughter has been the real inspiration behind "For the Love of Little Ones." Her birth created a huge shift in my heart, leading me to dedicate the rest of my nursing career to supporting parents in one of the most beautiful journeys of life: welcoming a baby into their family. This is a huge adjustment and it deserves to be a good experience. It is my prayer that I can share my passion, knowledge, and skill set to help parents trade in their fears and uncertainties for excitement. I cannot wait to meet you and help you navigate this amazing new chapter.

I love the outdoors: a beach, a park, even a cozy a front porch, it’s all therapeutic to me. 🍃 ⛅️

My nursing journey began in Michigan, where I earned my Bachelor of Science in Nursing (BSN) from Eastern Michigan University. Driven by a passion for education and patient care, I later pursued a Master's Degree in Nursing Education from NYU Rory Meyers College of Nursing. To further specialize, I completed my Childbirth Educator and Breastfeeding Counselor Certifications with Childbirth International, which is notably the only nursing-accredited program in the state. Throughout my career, I've had the privilege of working at some of the country's leading hospitals. However, my true calling lies in supporting growing families and guiding them through the transformative journey of becoming parents. There is nothing more rewarding than helping new moms and dads transition into their most important roles yet!
