The Values That Shape My Work

I’m a first-generation Latina raised in a multigenerational household where caregiving was shared, community was central, and support was collective rather than individual. I grew up with a deep understanding of the “village”—mutual aid, interdependence, and emotional presence as foundational to well-being.

Those early values shaped my path into caregiving. I began my work supporting families as a nanny during children’s most formative years, and later transitioned into birth and postpartum doula care, childbirth education, and mentorship for emerging doulas. Across each role, one belief has remained constant: meaningful support is built through continuity, not urgency.

How I Support Families

My approach sits at the intersection of emotional wellness, cultural humility, and practical guidance. I honor ancestral knowledge while also supporting families as they navigate modern perinatal systems and healthcare structures.

I am especially committed to working with families who have historically felt unseen or underserved within those systems, including BIPOC and LGBTQ+ communities. My care is not task-based or transactional—it is relationship-centered, adaptive, and grounded in dignity and trust.

Through Maternal Haven, I offer support that evolves as families’ needs change, providing steadiness across pregnancy, birth, and postpartum rather than isolated moments of care.

A Circle of Care That Grows With You

Whether I’m facilitating a prenatal session, supporting someone through labor, or offering quiet presence during postpartum recovery, my intention remains the same: to help families feel informed, supported, and confident as they step into parenthood.

Your journey deserves care that is thoughtful, restorative, and personal.

Care that adapts as you do.

Care that walks with you, every step of the way.
