The Mama's Dula

Posting a little PSA as a Child Passenger Safety Tech! Recently, I discovered a parent in possession of a counterfeit/ illegal carseat. Not her fault, it was gifted with a travel set and she wanted to be grateful. We were able to locate a safe seat, and all is well. However, counterfeit seats ARE real, and they can be dangerous! Its becoming a problem on Amazon and with sites like Temu having knockoff versions of real but expensive seats like Doonas and revolving seats. Here's what you should look for to keep your precious one safe (click the photo for caption/ info):

The DMV babies went back to school today, and this mama was very happy because I now have (2) ALL DAY kiddos! More free time to do things like take selfies in spa bathrooms before your 90 minute aromatherapy massage and stretch. 😁.

Today's R&R was needed because August is NUTS, from planning two health events, to out of state speaking engagements to taping show segments - your girl is BEAT. The August gauntlet is coming to a close, however, and I do loosely have plans for some new things this fall/ winter. Can't wait to see what's next!

Busy, busy!! I have a few engagements this month, and I'm excited to share the work I do beyond Prince George's and Montgomery Counties.

First up, I'm attending the Mom and Baby Action Network Summit in the Windy City with as we present our updates to our poster, Reducing Perinatal Health Disparities in Montgomery County, MD.

At the end of the month, I'm joining for their Lactation Educator Training Live series, where I'll be educating birthworkers on how they can incorporate babywearing into their Lactation practice. You won't want to miss it. (I'm a fun time in person, I think😅)

These opportunities help me be a better provider and bring you better care. Between events, I'm available for visits, so click the link in bio if you're interested in services. Be well!
