Skip the store bought scarves and pretty soaps, I prefer moments…
Home made glitter and glue Mothers Day Cards…
Re-gifted presents from home, wrapped in tissue paper…
Lovely warm little hugs…
A day to celebrate the love that surrounds me from my children and partner, and to spread it to every mother around me, including my own.
As a Doula, Mother’s Day is the special privilege of sharing countless beautiful moments between mothers and their babes…
The intimate and unique opportunity to show new moms ways to care for their babies through… breastfeeding, gentle candle lit baths, essential oil massage…
Showing a mother and her family that she needs to be loved and cared for too so that she can continue to love and care for her family…
Quietly helping with a feeding session before helping a baby go down for a nap…
The little hugs I get when caring for little ones…
The satisfaction of knowing that I’ve helped a new mom and family get through the tough moments just a little more ease.
In return and unbeknownst to them, they gift me all the beautiful warm moments between their child and themselves – reminding me of the magic when my two children were very little.
I’m so in love with being a Mother and also being able to “Mother” my clients – as they start their journeys of motherhood.
Happy Mother’s Day to us all who Mother our own and Mother those around us who need us.
