Hello! I'm so glad you're here.
The Birth Toolbox is my own little corner of the internet where I get to talk to you about my passion: Helping women have their best birth. I believe that women don’t have to leave birth feeling defeated, disappointed or guilty.
Knowledge is power. And that power can be wielded as a weapon to empower you to face whatever path your body and your baby choose on the way to birth. My hope and desire is for you to walk into your labor with confidence, authority and peace.
How can you do that? With a fully functional birth toolbox. Every piece of information and each skill that you collect during your pregnancy is added to this toolbox on your quest for your best birth. This website was created to help provide those tools and resources to moms, no matter what their birth goals might be.
So who am I?
I’m Molly. When I’m not creating awesome content for this website, I have a few other things on my plate. I’m a wife to a hardworking farm boy and a mom to three perfectly imperfect kids. I’m also a commercial chicken farmer, a freelance writer and a labor coach. Yup, I stay very busy.
I started this journey (which is far from over!) into birth education 11 years ago when I was pregnant with my first child. I knew I wanted a natural childbirth, but had none of the tools I needed to accomplish my goal. As I spent hours upon hours pouring over research, reading books and talking to other women, I quickly realized that this was more than just a casual interest, it was a passion. Nine years ago I attended my first birth as a labor coach and I was hooked!
I’d love to chat with you! Contact me about anything and everything, it would make my day.
