My most rewarding experience as a Bradley® instructor began with my first classes in 1992. My own births followed and gave me first-hand wisdom on successful natural, emergency and attended Bradley births. I also coached breastfeeding moms for 20+ years, adding to my instructor ability to fully assist couples beyond their actual birth days. My travels within the U.S. and abroad helped me serve expectant couples from variety cultures and backgrounds.

I’m also a mom of 9 and founder of my own mother-mentor and life-coaching business – TUFF Mama Time. My joy is having my path continue to cross those of many of my couples, worldwide. I believe there is nothing more enriching than encouraging others as they begin their journeys to parenthood.
