Hey, new friend!
I’m so happy you’re here!
I’m Taylor; a wife, entrepreneur, home birth mama and self-proclaimed “crunchy” gal. My passions include fertility, pregnancy, birth, postpartum, ancestral nutrition and traditional homemaking. When I’m not supporting other mamas, you can catch me baking sourdough, drinking raw milk, or grabbing lunch at the Swamp Rabbit Café with my husband, Tyler, and our sweet baby girls. I am also the host of the podcast Holistic Pregnancy (find it on Apple & Spotify) and founder of the Holistic Mama Pregnancy & Birth Course.
I started Nested & Nourished because I believe new mothers everywhere deserve to be held and cared for by the women around them in the same way that they hold and care for their own babies. I support my clients through preconception planning, nutrition counseling, both in-person and virtual birth support, as well as online education. I also have a very special place in my heart for postpartum support and whole-body nourishment. When a new baby is born, so is a mother, and we often forget how important it is to care for her during this period.
My approach to birth is simple.
You are in charge, and you deserve to be supported — period. Sometimes this support looks like education to help you make informed decisions, and other times it looks like extra time nurturing and pampering you (because, ahem, you absolutely DO deserve that). As your doula, my #1 goal is that you walk away from your birth feeling fully held.
I am a firm believer that birth is not a medical event—it’s a deeply physiological, primal, and sacred process that thrives when left undisturbed. I believe that women’s bodies are inherently wise, fully capable of growing, birthing, and nourishing life without interference. True support means protecting that process, honoring a mother’s intuition, and ensuring she feels fully autonomous in her choices. Birth works best when we trust it, not manage it. My role is to walk alongside you, not as an authority, but as a fierce guardian of your space, your power, and your experience.
During the postpartum period, I’m available for whatever you need— from holding space and debriefing your experience to more tangible support like bringing you a cup tea, offering womb massage and belly binding or doing your laundry so you can rest (in clean clothes). After our visits come to an end, I will continue to walk alongside you for as long as you desire.. because postpartum is forever! I have clients reach out to me for years after their births with questions about raising toddlers (or trying to conceive again!) and I’m always delighted to chat.
What do you offer as an online coach?
I’m so happy you asked! 😉 As your online coach or virtual doula, my job is to empower and support you through every step of your journey—whether you're trying to conceive, growing your little one, or preparing for an empowering birth. Think of me as your guide, cheerleader, and trusted advisor—always in your corner, no matter the distance.
During our time together, I’ll provide personalized support tailored to your unique needs. For those on their preconception journey, this may include guidance on holistic nutrition, mindset work, and natural fertility optimization. If you're pregnant, we’ll dive into creating a nourishing plan for pregnancy, preparing for a confident and aligned birth, and navigating postpartum recovery with intention.
As your virtual doula, I’ll be with you every step of the way, offering educational resources, emotional support, and personalized coaching sessions. You’ll have unlimited access to me via text or phone, ensuring you feel supported, heard, and confident at all times. When labor begins, I’ll guide you through comfort measures, labor positions, and emotional support virtually—helping you stay grounded and empowered from wherever you are birthing.
In postpartum, my role doesn’t end. I’ll help you navigate recovery with practical tips, holistic remedies, and guidance to ensure you’re nourished, rested, and bonding deeply with your baby. Whether it’s fertility, pregnancy, or postpartum, my goal is to help you trust your body, honor your journey, and step into motherhood feeling confident, capable, and whole.
Let’s build the birth story you’ve been dreaming of—together, from anywhere.
