Hi There!
My name is Hannah and I am the founder of Transcend Maternal Services. I am a certified fertility, birth, and postpartum Maternal Support Practitioner (MSP, doula) as well as a breastfeeding and childbirth educator. I am transitioning into truly being a birth keeper more than claiming the name doula due to distancing myself from many institutions and systems that tend to side with providers rather than truly being there for my moms and their families.
Why did I choose Transcend Maternal Services? Because during pregnancy, birth, and parenting we go beyond our range or limits that were set before us. We truly transcend.
Pregnancy, birth, and parenting are my passions. I see a great need in support for parents. The support that used to be passed from generation to generation is lacking. The village and care that parents so desperately deserve is hard to find. A doula and birth keeper steps in to foster the first steps to getting back to this. My Transcend Community has grown and I love being able to watch the relationships and friendships that have blossomed from it- between clients and myself and amongst clients together. In a society and systems that so quickly make mothers and fathers question their ability, authority, autonomy, voice and more... My hope is for it to be reclaimed.
I am a wife and mother to three; 2 wonderful boys, 9 and 5, and a 3 year old little girl. I have my Bachelors in education, which I now apply as a homeschooling mom. It was during my first pregnancy, that my passion began for all things maternal and parenting. As I continued to "unofficially" support friends and family over the following years, I came to realize that there was a great need for this role in our area.
I am a huge advocate for body autonomy, self-education and advocacy, personal and medical freedom. I am a very naturally-minded and holistic woman and I love being able to bring this into my practice to teach and encourage parents to reclaim overall health and wellness.
As your doula and birth keeper, I am your person and friend to go to for discussing information, someone to help prepare you in your journey, a listening ear, a voice to encourage you and help you find your voice, a hand to walk you through your unique journey, and whatever you may find you need.
I am here to inform, empower, and support YOU.
You are the parent. This is your journey.
I'd be honored to come alongside of you and I look forward to speaking with you.

What are Transcend Families saying?"...Hannah has become so much more than that. She supported us every step of the way—from being almost absurdly available during my pregnancy for questions or just to chat, to helping us find donor milk when we found out our baby wasn’t getting enough to eat, to texting me to do a postpartum check in while she was on vacation. I probably should have used the hypnobirthing techniques I’d practiced or printed out reminders of how I envisioned our son’s birth happening, but in failing to do any of that, I discovered just how amazing of a doula Hannah is. All I needed during the intense moments was her voice reminding me that this was all to bring baby earth side, to use my breath, to spontaneously get in our bathtub (because I hadn’t gotten the birth pool I obviously should have). I had no idea of the blessing Hannah would become when I first spoke with her. She knows what you need before you do and even when you don’t. She will take care of you, be silly with your toddler, and lovingly help you bring your baby into this world. And at the end of it all, you will feel like you have made a new friend with the warmest heart, who loves your babies almost as much as you do." ~Brittany B. |
