Everyday Miracles

Consistent, compassionate care from beginning to end 💛
“Hadijatou was amazing throughout my birth.”
Because every birth deserves unwavering support.

This Father's Day, we're celebrating all the people showing up for families through pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

Thank you for the rides to appointments, late-night diaper changes, words of encouragement, and unwavering support. 💛

Today we honor Juneteenth and recognize the importance of equity in healthcare, birth work, and family support.

Every family deserves access to respectful, culturally responsive care.

✨️ Spotlight Thursday ✨️

Meet Callie (she/her), Doula.

Callie has been serving families as a doula for 3 years within a 40-mile radius of Carlton, Minnesota. Her passion for birth work began after having her own twins, inspiring her to support families as they navigate pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum with confidence and empowerment.

“Empowering them. Especially first-time families who are unsure of what to expect during pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum.”

Her message to families:
“Each birth is unique in its own way. No matter if this is your first baby or your tenth, each story will be different. My goal is to make it a story worth telling!”

🌿 Self-care: Pedicures and massages
💫 Fun fact: Loves playing and coaching hockey 🏒
☕ Favorite drink: A Swinging Bridge from the Wired Loon in Carlton
☀️ Favorite season: All of them! “Each has a different purpose.”

Birth doesn’t follow a schedule—and we’re there through it all 💛
