About Jinny
I’m a mother of three beautiful babies (not so little anymore) who came into this world with the love, support, and deep trust of midwives. Since the birth of my first child in 2011, I have had the honor of supporting and witnessing hundreds of pregnancy and birth journeys. I am humbled to sit at the feet of these incredible families who have taught me so much. I have witnessed the cycle of children brought into the world in a peaceful way that not only creates a more peaceful world, but also opens families to their authentic selves and the power they hold within.
I fell in love with the innate and sacred process our bodies go through to bring new souls to this world. It is my greatest joy to support families through the transition from pregnancy to birth, and postpartum integration. My deep trust in the body’s capacity to heal and support itself leads me to a deep trust in our capacity to birth our babies. Our bodies are inherently wise. We have a knowledge imprinted into us that we may not even be aware of. The process of growing a baby, birthing a baby, and caring for a baby we know deep in our souls. Laboring in an undisturbed environment, where we feel safe and supported, allows us to do what we are designed to do. I support people to access the parts of themselves that contain this knowledge. Guiding you to your own truth and power for you, your baby, and your family.
I am passionate about helping families make autonomous decisions that work best for them in their unique situations. I’m an advocate for independent, undisturbed, physiological birth and informed choice for each family and situation. I encourage you to make your own choices and accept or decline the parts of care that make sense for you. I provide information and resources so that you know your options and can adapt them to your family.
In my spare time, I enjoy living as close to the earth as possible. As a family, we raise chickens, tend a garden, bake bread, can our own food, knit, sew, and build our homestead. It’s not uncommon that I share these bounties with my clients. Through our relationship together, I am happy to share my experience and thoughts on all things natural and gentle parenting, homesteading, cloth diapering, holistic family home remedies, elimination communication, clean eating and living, reducing toxins in our bodies and our lives, fermenting our own food, raising chickens, gardening, from scratch home cooking, handmade projects, natural living, natural pregnancy, organic and pesticide-free eating, and a sustainable lifestyle.
One of my main goals during a birth is the safety of the baby and the safety of the person giving birth. I believe that this safety is connected to the relationship that we build prenatally. I have the utmost confidence in you! Your body and your baby know how to grow together and how to complete the birth process. Through a series of face-to-face meetings, on your terms and in your space, we create a relationship that nourishes your own internal process. You are taking your care and your baby’s care into your own hands. I provide information and resources so that you know your options and can adapt them to your family. You have sovereignty and power over what happens to your child and in your home. And I respect your decisions around your own experience and family.
The whole family can be involved to the degree that feels comfortable to you. I love working with kids and helping to raise up the next generation of humans who know their power and connect to their own internal knowing. A positive birth can have a positive impact on generations to come.
