“Marta is magic. Caring, thoughtful, intentional and a joy to be around. She slipped into our home in the earliest days of my son being home with such comfort and ease. She really helped us find our way and took wonderful care of us all. Three years later, I still think about some of the delicious and nourishing recipes she cooked in those earliest days! If you have the opportunity to work with her, do it.” ~ Lizzie

My approach
I believe all mothers/parents and their families deserve compassionate, holistic, and evidence-based care uniquely catered to them. I meet families where they are in their pregnancy journey, lending a nurturing ear, and providing an abundance of community resources and referrals. I understand that everyone’s path to parenthood is different and always looking for ways to expand my practice to be more culturally competent and accessible to all genders and identities. Since becoming a new mother of two myself, I have grown an even deeper understanding of the complex emotional and physical transformation of birth and parenthood. I continue to learn from my own experience as well as the wisdom of the families I work with. I’m forever in awe of the human body and what we are capable of. In my free time I love to explore this beautiful land, spend time with my family, and try out new recipes in the kitchen! I live in Half Moon Bay with my husband, two children, and little pup Naomi.
