A Personal Note: 

I have always belived in attachment parenting, and have been a stay-with-child/mostly working at home mom for my own child. We are natural living & learning, deep in the woods and beside a beautiful pond in a small Maine town called Freedom.

As a result of my experiences as a doula, I began making eco-compassionate products that could otherwise not easily be found from local ingredients, made locally, or  sometimes elsewhere at all.  I craft and create using what is readily available in nature in their own seasons - such as herbs, sheep wool, or applewood. Many of the little felt toys and creations stem from my passions as an artist/educator and semi-professional storyteller.

You'll regularly find me at farmers markets or special events sharing my natural products & personal works of art, though my most treasured moments have always been when I am creating alongside my beautiful son..
