Welcome! I'm so happy you're looking into having a "Jubilee" birth. In ancient Bible times the year of Jubilee was meant to be a time when ALL slaves and bond-servants were set free and got a fresh start on life! I've seen how birth can be a "jubilant" event in many lives...both for mothers and fathers, but also for whole families. I'm not like a lot of other doulas/birthkeepers - because I am extremely experienced. I left a very popular and growing doula business in Texas when we moved to Juneau 10 years ago. And since then I've mostly attended family and friend births. There are seasons for all things and we took a major detour a few years ago in foster-parenting. I've raised my own children, foster children and now have grandchildren that live next door. My life is full to the brim. I am overwhelmed with the goodness of God and want to share that joy with you and your birth experience. Let's see where the LORD will take us!

Coming soon:
We hope to make the apartment in our home available to rent for out of town families who are coming to Juneau to give birth. This will be an oasis where you'll be welcome to live, birth and recover - NOT a BIRTH CENTER - just a place to have your home birth if you want that or to stay and recover- giving birth in hospital or birth center. So many options here in Juneau. This is not yet an option, but this is our hope for what will be called "The Secret Place"

Psalm 91
He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2 I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

When Mark and I moved to Juneau from Texas we had no idea he would end up adopted by the Tlingit Thunderbird clan and have the opportunity to make one of the best quality products available...Devilsclub essential oil.. Named for it's "powers" to hold back evil spirits, we have found it is a greatly God-blessed plant that contains nearly all the medicine a person might need if they were roughing it in SE AK. The range of uses has shocked us and people have gotten such amazing pain relief and help with many kinds of ailments. I use it daily and hope you'll take a look. We make our product locally and it is carefully harvested to ensure the continued thriving of the plants.
