Supporting Your Birth Journey with Compassionate Care
HypnoBirthing® is as much a philosophy of birth as it is a technique for achieving a satisfying, relaxing, and stress-free birth.
This amazing program teaches you, along with your birth partner, the art and joy of experiencing birth in a more comfortable manner.
You will learn how to call upon your body’s own natural relaxant, and therefore lessen, or eliminate, discomfort and the need for medical intervention.
When you are properly prepared for childbirth and when the mind and body are in harmony, nature is free to function in the same well-designed manner that it does with all other mothers in nature.
Through self-hypnosis and special breathing visualization techniques, HypnoBirthing teaches you to release fear and to trust your body’s ability to birth instinctively.
Emotional, physical, and informational support throughout pregnancy, labor, and the early postpartum period
Personalized prenatal meetings to prepare for birth and explore your preferences and options
Guidance to help you feel informed, calm, and confident in your decisions
Continuous labor support, offering grounding presence, comfort techniques, and encouragement
Support for both you and your partner so everyone feels prepared and included
Evidence-based information to help you navigate choices during pregnancy and birth
On-call availability as your due date approaches
Support across all birth settings, including home births, birth centers, and hospitals
Gentle postpartum check-in to help integrate your birth experience and support early adjustment

Inside
my world
Mandalay first stepped into birth work during a daily meditation practice in 2020, when she received a clear vision of women moving together through cat/cow in a prenatal yoga class. That moment sparked a calling to expand her work into the prenatal and birth space.
She went on to become a DONA-certified doula and a HypnoBirthing® educator. In her work, Mandalay has supported many couples through pregnancy and birth, centering breath, connection, and empowerment throughout their journeys.
Mandalay holds a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education from Northern Arizona University and thoughtfully weaves her diverse educational background into her work with parents-to-be and new families as they step into this transformative chapter.
She believes that through supportive education and guidance, birthing people can cultivate empowered, embodied birth experiences — creating less space for trauma and more space for beautiful, mother–baby-centered birth stories.
