Congratulations on your growing family! My name is Inga Goodwin. I am a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist, INA credentialed newborn care specialist, Christian childbirth educator and fertility awareness health coach. My burden is to empower parents-to-be with the knowledge, tools, and support they need to meet their breastfeeding or pumping goals, optimize fertility, birth safely, and get more sleep with a newborn! More about me? I am a work-at-home, home-schooling mom of 2. I birthed one of my babies at home and the other at the hospital. I enjoy composting, bird watching, and gardening for pollinators. Having an engineering degree has driven me to seek evidenced-based, practical solutions for my birthing and fertility clients. In all that I do, I stand in awe of our great Creator and make sure I approach my work prayerfully. If that resonates with you, take advantage of my free Birth Ready Check-up call service!

Taking the child birthing education course with Inga Goodwin was eye opening, encouraging, and reassuring. She is committed to making sure mom and dad are equipped with the techniques and strategies that are important in preparing to meet their little one. The material covered in the course is a reminder that the beauty of birthing is in the hands of our Creator God. Having the knowledge of how the body is designed and responds during the birthing process is an essential part of the birthing journey. Inga's informative presentation is sure to prepare mom and dad with that knowledge and awareness. We are confident and excited about our journey.

Working with Inga has been amazing! From our first encounter, I was very pleased. Her demeanor and fact based presentations truly made me feel comfortable from day one. Being able to understand and effectively track my hormone levels has been very beneficial for me. Inga’s open door policy is truly what I have appreciated the MOST. I’m able to text or call Inga and she is readily available to assist and answer any question I may need clarity on. She has a TRUE passion for her work and exhibits this with each encounter. I look forward to continuing my services and working with her.

Inga has been such a pleasure to work with during my journey to and through pregnancy. I first met with her to help me conceive. She helped me assess the key factors supporting fertility and accurately track my progress. She was clear, knowledgeable and ultimately helped me achieve my goal of pregnancy!! I continue to work with her for birthing classes and recommendations to support a healthy pregnancy and positive birth experience and she’s been great! She’s responsive, supportive and a true professional! I highly recommend you connect with her if you are trying to conceive!

My husband and I decided to hire a Christian birth doula for many reasons: we wanted the Spiritual, physical and emotional support provided by a doula at our birth – and leading up to it. Made the entire experience so positive and would highly recommend Inga. The support that was provided made me feel much more comfortable and confident through my journey into motherhood. Her coaching and follow up was consistent, caring, and compassionate.

Inga is incredible! I cannot say enough how patient, reassuring, insightful, and helpful she has been during my process of trying to conceive. I highly recommend her services. She is very much in tune with trying to create a genuine bond with her client, being transparent and being up-to-date on everything on the medical and mental health end of things. I plan to reach out to her in the future. Thank you so much Inga, I am grateful for you!
