Hi everyone! I’m Megan, and I lead Rooted Birth. I have been a doula and childbirth educator in the San Antonio area since 2017. I am also a Certified Breastfeeding Specialist and I’m studying for my board certification as a lactation consultant. I have a husband, 3 kids, one cat (who we named Albus Dumbledore because of his white beard), and an Aussiedoodle named Zoey. If I’m not working or hanging out with my family, you’ll find me listening to podcasts and audiobooks, practicing pottery, watching reality TV, or doing yoga. I also fancy myself one day winning Star Baker on The Great British Bake-Off. But I’m not British, so that’s one hurdle!

As a childbirth educator and doula combination, I feel particularly passionate that all families go into their birth and postpartum experiences armed with choices and information. This is your birth, and you get to call the shots! I also have experience with VBAC (Vaginal Birth After Cesarean), pregnancy after loss, teen parents, military families, single parents, IVF, trauma-informed care, planned Cesarean births, and out-of-hospital births. Besides seeing all the squishy babies, I love checking in with clients in the weeks after their baby is born to see how they’re doing. It’s always this beautiful mix of exhaustion, spit-up, and doubt, mixed with love, wonderment, and pride. All of these things are so formative to who we are as parents and it is such a special privilege to be able to witness that.
