About me

I’m Shonna, owner of Growing and Graced, and I offer Prenatal and Postpartum Support to families in the Hampton Roads Area and virtually by request. I specialize in Natural Births at home as well as in Hospitals. My passion for educating families on prenatal wellness, family planning, labor and delivery support, and postpartum healing stems from a seed God planted in me that he has watered and matured this seed. The result is Growing and Graced, and I am so grateful. I want to return our birth journey to the way the Father intended. Birth is a process of growth, surrender, and preparation and with the proper support, you can have the successful pregnancy, labor, and birth you desire! Thank you for stopping by, and I would love to join your family as you embark on your season of transition!

Shonna is an excellent service provider. She has been wonderful in providing great information on natural foods and herbs that prepares my body for pregnancy. She is very knowledgeable in educating me on how to understand the body’s natural capability of child birth from beginning to end.
