Perinatal massage therapy Childbirth Education Postpartum Doula and Support groups

11/03/2026

Birth days hit different when a family has waited soooo long to meet their baby.

This is me, waiting in the labour and delivery room during a C-section. I'd love to be in the room with every client but some days my job is to wait.
So I sit, I picture what's happening in the OR and I wait for them to hear that first cry.

I support every kind of birth. Hospital or home. Vaginal or cesarean. Your birth, your rules.

Being invited into moments like this never gets old. It's the best part of what I do. 🌿Thinking about a doula for your birth? Book a free, no-pressure chat. Link in bio.

Bring your person

After a birth, I hear the same thing over and over: “I don’t know how we would have done it without you.” 💚

That feeling of being supported is everything. This class gives your person the tools to give you some of that too: how to help, what to say, and when to just hold your hand.

🌿She is the same person. She wants the same things for you, regardless of the image.

She is wishing everyone knew their options so she’s teaching them.
She is wishing everyone knew they have agency over their birth even in a hospital so she’s helping birthers truly understand and experience this.
She is happy to lose sleep when it means helping someone through labour so she always has her bag packed and will help you feel just as ready.
She is in complete awe of the connection of mom and baby after birth so she is making sure you get as much skin to skin time as you want.
She knows how important the birth environment is and she will always protect it.
She will be in your corner. Always.

These 2 people above are one and the same but… don’t expect the woman in the first image to show up to your birth because she will always be in leggings and a hoodie with a bag full of birth tools and snacks.😁

What you’ll walk away with

Here’s the honest truth: we took the classes, read the books, and still walked into our own births feeling unprepared. 😅

A lot of what we’d been taught just didn’t match what really happened. That’s why this class is different. It’s real talk about real births, so you know your options and feel ready for whatever your birth looks like.

What’s one thing you wish someone had told you before birth? Tell us below 👇

🌿 total honesty here

I know as partners people make decisions together and I totally get it but I’m telling you right now in full transparency that any time I wasn’t hired because the partner or support person didn’t think they’d need me I have been told after the fact how much they wish I had been there.

That part makes me so sad for them.

Birth is an experience that you will remember forever whether it’s a good experience or not. I want to work with you to make it something you can look back on with massive pride and so much love.

Let’s do this birth thing together ☺️

Send me a message or book a free consultation in the bio. We can see if it’s the right fit!

If you have entertained the thought of a water birth and have questions, I’d love to talk about it!

Water can be an absolute game changer when it comes to pain, pressure and potential tissue tearing in labour and delivery.

It’s not messy. It’s not hard work to set up and take down. (If you’re a doula client of mine I do all of that for you. ☺️) It’s big enough to move around in. There are cup holders and handles to hold onto.
Take gravity out of the equation and let your body do what it needs to.

Near and dear to my heart 💜

When I thought about writing something here I realized that I just don’t have big enough words for how I wish nobody had to walk the road of such profound loss.

My love goes out to you all and your babies.

You are always welcome here. For a hug, a good cry, a heartfelt laugh, a quiet space or whatever else might support you in grief.

✨We’re live! ✨

Orillia Perinatal Massage has a new name and a new home online: Birch & Belly is officially here.

Same hands. Same heart. Same zero tolerance for small talk. Just a space that finally feels like us.

Here’s what you’ll find on the new site:

🌿 Every service and every price, right there. No guessing, no “contact for a quote”

🌿 New doula bundle options to save you money

🌿 Massage, doula support, prenatal classes and our postpartum group

🌿 Birth pool rentals for a calm water birth at home

I built this for the mama who’s tired of hearing those terrible birth stories and the same “go-to” answers. You don’t need to be “ready”, you just need to be supported in the right ways.

This space is yours. Bring your fear, your joy, your mess. 🤎

So here’s the thing… we have this postpartum group where we get together once a week for 6 weeks and make mom friends happen!

This group is meant for any new mom (doesn’t have to be your first baby) who feels like they are alone in it. For the moms who feel like it’s impossible to make new friends. It’s for the moms who are questioning every decision and are overwhelmed by social media and family input and just having to be everything for everyone.

This is not a mom and baby activity and play group. This is a moms for moms group where you can let your guard down and not be nervous about judgement. You can just say the thing! The things that you think should be said out loud and the things that you’ve never said out loud but you need a brave and safe space to do it.

You don’t need to be anyone other than you in here.

We will hold whatever you need to put down for a little while. There might even be some guest speakers to help you along the way! ☺️

Let’s get in the room together and see what motherhood can really look like. 🩷

As always, message me if you have questions or need any other info. Registration is open and you can access it through the online booking link in the bio.

I want you to find friendships that last for years like the past 4 years of our groups have found.
