I’m Dy, and I am here to assist you through your parenting journey from the beginning.
“I’m pregnant, and I assumed once I was here I would know what type of birth experience I wanted, but now I just feel overwhelmed by so many options and resources. Am I the only one?”
“Breastfeeding is supposed to be natural, so why are we struggling so much?”
“I know people say parenting is the hardest thing they have ever done, but it just feels like I’m not getting something. This has to get easier. Something has to change.”
You are not alone!
My wide range of life and professional experience has given me an unique perspective to identify what your true stressors are and help find lasting solutions.

Breastfeeding Consulting
Breastfeeding your baby can be one of the most wonderful parts of parenthood, but it can also not always go as planned. Every family has different feeding goals for their baby but lack of support shouldn’t determine your outcome. As an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant (IBCLC) I have the highest worldwide credential available combined with the experience needed to help you identify and meet your feeding goals.
Baby and Family Lifestyle Consulting
Are you worried about integrating your baby into your life? Concerned about sibling rivalry or introducing your pet to the baby? Feel like your baby is fussier than normal but aren’t sure if you are doing something wrong? Wondering why doesn’t your baby sleep?Need ideas for organization and simplification because a baby on top of everything else in the household has just proven to be too much? Just need someone to bounce ideas off of? Allow me to share with you my years of experience and support you in living your best new family life.
Maternity Consulting
Do you not know what type of birth experience you are looking for? What childbirth class would be the best fit? Feel like you need help looking for the right care provider and knowing what questions to ask? A consultation with me may be all you need to go forward with confidence.
Kind words.

“I was a new mom in a foreign land with no family around to guide me properly regarding new born care. I got very anxious over small things for my baby like feeding, colic and nap issues etc and then I found DyAnna. She was like a ray of hope in those stressful times and she gave me confidence that newborns act in a certain way and I was not doing anything wrong. She guided me the proper way to breastfeed and look for cues of a newborn to understand their needs. She helped me understand about babies personalities and how they are so different, she also helped me realize the importance of following a routine. It was the first time it all started to make some sense and I kept coming back to Dy for any queries I had. I always found her very helpful, cooperative and friendly. She made me understand complex things in simplest and easiest ways. I am so glad and thankful to her for being so approachable. Keep it up DyAnna, you are the best!”

She has a natural, nurturing personality that will surely put you at ease. It is an honor to have her work with you!”

“One of THE best midwives I have ever worked with. She is super knowledgeable about the home birth and hospital birth world and helps you to feel comfortable no matter what. Her standards for prenatal, labor, delivery, and postpartum care are excellent. I would definitely pick her to deliver another one of my babies.”
