About Me

Hi! I'm Aleah (pronounced uh-lee-uh). I was born and raised in the California Bay Area, but life brought me to beautiful Bend, Oregon after having my 2 amazing kids in my early 20s. Before starting my own family, I pursued an education in Early Childhood Education and Development, laying the foundation and sparking my passion for nurturing and supporting families.

My life path was altered when someone close to me faced fertility challenges. This spurred me to dive into the world of third-party reproduction and led me to having the privilege of being a two-time surrogate. One of these journeys resulted in the incredible gift of new life, while the other brought lessons in resilience and compassion through loss. These experiences have profoundly shaped my approach to supporting families through their individual paths to parenthood.

I believe that every experience is unique and deserves personalized care, respect, and compassion that is all- inclusive and non-judgmental.  I strive to ensure that you feel empowered and confident in your choices. From creating a calming birth environment to offering hands-on support during the postpartum period, I’m dedicated to making this chapter of your life as peaceful and fulfilling as possible.

When I’m not immersed in birth work and being a mom to my now adult children, you can find me embracing my role as an aunt to 9 wonderful nieces and nephews, camping, hiking, dancing, playing board/card games, puzzling or reading. Family and connection are at the heart of everything I do, and I am deeply grateful to walk alongside others during these transformative seasons of life.
