Hi, thank you for being here!

My name is Ysabel Free. My partner, our 2 year old son and I, live on an multigenerational homestead on the Lost Coast of Northern California. I grew up rurally, off grid, gardening and wild foraging. This foundation created a deep appreciation for nature and living in harmony with the earth. Very early on I gained a strong curiosity around pregnancy and birth. I became a birth doula and since have studied massage therapy, Ayurveda, herbalism and most recently postpartum care through Rachelle Garcia at Innate Postpartum Care. I created Aurora Maternal Wellness after the beautiful self guided pregnancy and home birth of my son. Followed by a supported postpartum period. With the understanding that this isn’t the experience of most, I’ve put my years of training into offerings to help mothers feel supported and taken care of during these big initiatory times. I truly believe the health of our society starts with the mother. Support and nourish her and it will ripple out into everything else.
