What Clients Say
Katie helped me regularly during the first month of my son's life - I don't know how I would have survived without her! Haven H.
Katie has a soft and soothing demeanor, but is still a strong and kind person to have on your birth team.
Bryanne B.
From the moment Katie joined us at the hospital she brought a sense of calm and confidence.

I Believe in Equity
I believe in Community Care
*My rates are set to represent the average client that I support based on the DC market value and my level of expertise and demand for my care.
My rates allow me to take care of my mental and physical health to be able to support families during one of the most important moments and days of their lives. We take care of each other.
My rates allow me to have flexibility in who I can serve. Please don't hesitate to reach out if you feel my rates feel out of reach, sometimes I able to offer sliding scale, and or payment plans. Let's find another creative solution together to get you the care you need for birth and postpartum.
Due to the wage gap, created by systemic racism, 5% of my rate goes directly into the hands of Black, Indigenous, and People of Color doing birthwork in their communities, because they are getting paid less for the same, and in many cases more difficult work. If I have not received a funding request, it goes to projects supporting BIPOC led local community perinatal support efforts.
If you want to support my equity fund beyond rate paid please let me know!
