Providing you with a safe space to be heard, seen and cared for.

If change is the only constant in life, becoming a parent is one of the greatest transformations we experience. Supporting people through the postpartum transformations that come after birth is one of my favourite parts of being a midwife. Whether I’m providing care as a midwife, or as a life coach, I draw on my years of experience to support people through all sorts of life changes and transformations. It is an honour and joy to co-create a safe space for you to feel heard, and to explore with curiosity what wants to come through in your life.

 

Let’s work together.

Located on the unceded ancestral territories of the Haida Nations of Haida Gwaii, and the Syilx Okanagan Nation. Colonially known as Masset and Kelowna, BC. In person or virtual midwifery and coaching appointments available.

 

Words of Kindness.

We cannot thank you enough for all you have done in supporting and guiding us through pregnancy, birth and postpartum. You have made me feel so safe and comfortable throughout this whole experience.

Crystal has always been an amazing soul but the training she has undergone has helped her fine tune her ability to really help her clients get to the heart of the question. Sometimes life isn’t about finding the right answers; rather it’s about asking the right questions and everything else falls into place

I am now settled on the other side of a wild journey / metamorphosis into motherhood. It was really hard, and I’m happier now than I’ve ever been. Thank-you so much for all of your support...I hope you know how special you are & what an amazing job you do. Thank-you. Thank-you. Thank-you.
