About Us


Welcome to all the moms-to-be!

This website is for and about you.

There is a ton of information – and misinformation – available on the world wide web regarding pregnancy, labor, and post-partum care. You could easily spend nine months trying to wade through this mountain and come up empty! That’s where this website comes in very, very handy.

The whole idea for this site was born out of my experiences in being a prenatal massage therapist and a labor support doula for almost ten years now. When I started, most women knew startlingly little about what their bodies were going through. Now, there is more information available, but there are so many conflicting opinions that you don’t know who to trust! My hope is that you will learn to trust yourself and pick up some useful information here at Massage A Mom.

I’ll be bringing you occasional web talk shows that cover lots of aspects of pregnancy and beyond – from perfect posture to dealing with the post-partum blues. In addition, I’ll be scouring the internet for the latest pregnancy chatter and posting it here — usually with my opinion of course! You can also check out my recommended reading list — it’s way more than just “What to Expect When You’re Expecting.”

Finally – and most importantly – this website serves as an opportunity for you to connect with others who are going through the same wonderful experience as you. Ask each other questions, share your stories, or even shoot a question to me. I can’t wait to see the community that we build together!
