Our Philosophy

We are here to blend ancestral wisdom into your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience.

We believe in the wholeness within you & around you. We center our practice around this truth.

We draw from the richness of our Indian cultural roots & uplift the wisdom our ancestors hold.

We acknowledge the complexity this experience can bring and are committed to creating a supportive space for you to process.

We shape this space for all bodies & all gender expressions. We strive to center the underrepresented - highlighting melanated voices.
