My name is Ashley Sipes, I am now a mother of two! It all started when I was 18 years old and in an Arby’s bathroom. I saw a plus sign on a pregnancy test. I spent so much time putting together a nursery for my new baby and worrying about what maternity clothes looked best. I didn't understand the extent of planning, education, or support for birth itself. This includes postpartum planning! I thought birth just "happened" to you and then you moved on, with little to no say in what "happened". I was fear a driven nervous teen. To be honest, birth was something that I wanted to avoid all together. Why so much fear? It seemed like such an out of control emergent thing. Loss of control is one of my biggest fears. 

I endured a traumatic birth, which lead me to have a home birth. From there, I decided that I wanted to offer accessible and compassionate care to the folks of the foothills! No matter what kind of birth you have in mind, your birth matters, and you matter!
