The Mothering Method
To be a mother is to nourish and protect true humanity and bring it to development.
-Edith Stein
I'm Abigail, welcome to Mothering Method. I am so excited you are here. I am a mom to two on earth and one in heaven. I have always loved cooking and caretaking, especially for babies.
​
I am honored you are considering me to take care of you and your family.
Experience
I am currently doing my doula training with Birth with Spirit.

With a background as a Research Analyst, I quickly found it more difficult to do research as a mom than for my job. It seemed literature and the internet were filled with outdated research that was often unfounded, flawed, or self interested. The only way I could find solid, accurate information was to directly read and analyze studies or to dive down rabbit holes of one expert referring another. After talking to many other moms, I realized I was not alone. So many of us felt like we had to spend hours scouring the internet to figure out what was going on with our kids, even those with backgrounds like nursing.
​
In modern times many of us don't have a village of women skilled in all aspects of motherhood supporting us. We shouldn't have to spend hours scouring pubmed or asking for one referral after another just to find out what is going on with us and our families. That's a large reason why I started my business, to help connect you to a village of support.
Cranial Fascial Therapy
Gillespie Approach Foundation, October 2023
Cranial Fascial Therapy (CFT) is an bodywork modality that focuses on releasing strain in the fascia. This is especially useful in pregnancy, as your body grows and prepares for birth, and in postpartum, when you likely have lingering tension from labor.
