For a long time, I wondered what I was truly meant to do. The funny thing is, the people who knew me best seemed to know long before I did.

Throughout my life, I was told that working with babies was my calling. Caring for newborns has always come naturally to me, but even more than that, I genuinely love caring for people.

Over time, I began to realize that some of the qualities that have always been part of who I am—my ability to stay calm when things feel uncertain, to step in when I'm needed, and to care deeply for the people around me—had been pointing me toward this work all along.

But Held by Hope grew from something deeper than a love for newborns.

It grew from a love for mothers.

I believe mothers deserve to be cared for, too. To have space to rest and heal. To feel comforted without being judged, supported without being overshadowed, and confident in discovering what works for themselves and their babies.

Sometimes that means guidance. Sometimes it means another set of hands. And sometimes it simply means having someone sit beside you.

That is why I created Held by Hope.

To create a place where mothers can feel held through every season—with someone beside them to offer comfort, care, and support, and to remind them of something I believe deeply:

You are not alone.
