About Evelyn Ojeda-Fox

Evelyn Ojeda-Fox, B.A.Ed, CD(DONA), NCTMB, LMT MA 53485 Pregnancy and birth are healthy, natural and normal body functions. I believe that women intuitively know how to give birth and babies know how to be born. When peaceful and undisturbed, women find their own rhythm and give birth with power and dignity. Birth is an opportunity for spiritual and emotional transformation. I was introduced to midwives and natural birth by my grandmother. Many times, at my eager requests, she told me the story of the homebirths of her nine children. I was always impressed by the support she received from her family to allow her to be quarantined with her new baby after each birth! In my family birth was a normal event. The birth of my daughters was the beginning of an amazing journey of self discovery - in which I continue to be engaged in! I am blessed with two lovely daughters, born in the 70's with the loving support of midwives, three stepdaughters and two granddaughters. Our youngest granddaughter was joyfully born at home. As an elementary school teacher for over twenty years I often wondered how I could make a more profound difference in the lives of my young students. Even when I was teaching Preschool I still felt that I needed to meet children sooner. Learning about my own conception helped me realize that pre-conception was the ideal time. The way we are conceived and born informs the way we experience the world, this is known as limbic imprinting. The best way for a society to increase the number of healthy, well-adjusted children is by supporting and nurturing the mothers. Womb Parenting became my passion! That passion led me to become a Nationally Certified Licensed massage therapist with specialized training in pre- and perinatal massage, and a DONA certified birth doula. My intention is to provide a safe, supportive and nurturing space for women to cultivate their inner wisdom.
