Prepare for birth feeling calm, confident & empowered
Through supportive education and guidance, birthing people can cultivate empowered, embodied birth experiences
Guiding families into transformative new chapters
Mandalay first stepped into birth work during a daily meditation practice in 2020, when she received a clear vision of women moving together through cat/cow in a prenatal yoga class. That moment sparked a calling to expand her work into the prenatal and birth space.
She went on to become a DONA-certified doula and a HypnoBirthing® educator. In her work, Mandalay has supported many couples through pregnancy and birth, centering breath, connection, and empowerment throughout their journeys.
With a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education from Northern Arizona University, she thoughtfully weaves her diverse educational background into her work with parents-to-be and new families.
