About

Overview

Hi! I'm Justine. I am a mother of four. I am basically the ring leader of my own personal circus. I love it. I have a huge passion for birth, so strong that my post-graduate work was focused in pre & postnatal rehabilitation. Each one of my little creations has only enhanced my passion for birth. I went through my first pregnancy not knowing birth education was even a thing! I basically followed the crowd and was pressured into making medical choices that I didn't fully understand. In the end, I was disappointed with my lack of knowledge. This is where I vowed to do things differently the next time. During my second pregnancy, my husband and I decided to take Bradley classes. It was a perfect match. We were able to use all the information that we learned in class during pregnancy. labor, and beyond. It helped me have the birth of my dreams, no medication and no interventions. I felt truly empowered giving birth with the knowledge I had I learned in class. Fast forward to today. I am a certified Bradley instructor with one medicated and three unmedicated birth experiences. My birth journey started with a high-intervention, epidural birth in a hospital and has ended with a natural birth with zero interventions in the comfort of my own home. I have given birth laying in a hospital bed, leaning over a bed, squatting next to a birth tub, and kneeling in my living room. That's right, you don't have to be stuck in a bed to give birth! Crazy, right?! After my incredible Bradley birth, I knew I wanted to help other women find their inner strength and achieve the birth that they desire. That is why I became an instructor. I would be honored to help guide you and your partner in this journey toward parenthood and achieve the best birth-day possible!

We Love Justine and This Class 5 Stars

Justine is smart, practical, and could not be more passionate about what she does. My husband and I went into these classes knowing nothing about the changes happening inside my body or the labor process itself. Justine broke all of this down in a digestible way and explained all the different options we had as a family. Removing the pressure of a doctors office and medical language Justine challenged me to think about my values and how I wanted my birthing experience (and pregnancy) to go. She made me feel equipped to ask the right questions and advocate for my needs. Justine’s passion for birth and empowering women on this amazing journey shines through her lectures. I will never forget these classes and for those couple months leading up to my birth they were the highlight of my week.

Why did you seek this provider's help?

I didn’t know anything about the birthing process or all the decisions that came with it.
