Hi, I’M KRISSY!
My drive for this work began soon after the arrival of my first born. The love and support that I received during my journey from maiden to mother was nothing short of transformational. I knew right away that this was to become my life’s work and ever since I have been passionately dedicated to serving mother’s during their pregnancy, birth and postpartum. Feel free to take a peak at my homebirth stories posted below!
In 2017, KW Birth Services was born. Since then, I have had the privilege of assisting and supporting families all around Middle Tennessee, attending births in the hospital, birth center and in the home, both with and without midwife assistance. I’ve spent many hours educating and preparing families in the classroom setting as well as hands on in-home support during the postpartum sacred window.
I believe that the journey in which a woman transitions from Maiden to Mother is a sacred event & that our bodies carry the innate wisdom & knowledge of the birthing process. I care deeply about your experience & aim to gently guide and nourish you so that you feel confident in your instincts & empowered to have the birth & postpartum you desire.
When I’m not spending my time with mothers and families you can find me barefoot in the country, frolicking with my daughters & my husband on our backyard homestead in Gallatin, Tn – enjoying our chickens, horses & dogs! I am passionate about health & wellness & strive to live as close to our ancestral ways as possible. I crave time spent outdoors! I enjoy camping, kayaking, hiking and riding horses. I love being around people and having meaningful, deep conversations. I’d like to think of myself as an open minded person – eager to learn new things that challenge my beliefs, always ready to adapt & grow.
Other Training’s Include: Basic Rebozo Skills Workshop, Pelvic Floor Health and Restorative Exercise Workshop, Bereavement Skills for Birth Professionals Workshop. Babywearing with Babywearing International, Wise Woman Herbal Workshop for Birthworkers.
