Sacred Birth
Services Offered:
For more info, email me Packages Birth Counseling Pregnancy is an emotional, physical and spiritual journey. An expectant mother's thoughts and emotions, the physical changes she feels within her body all impact on how she chooses to birth her baby, which will be a life transforming event. These sessions help to provide the mother with a safe, non-stressed environment where she can ask questions, talk freely, and gain advice and support. Womb Stories As women we carry our stories in our womb, the center of life, creativity and energy. I am currently offering small groups using Mandalas to tell our stories, heal them and create powerful new ones. These workshops are suitable for pregnant women, and women who are healing from birth trauma. To set up an appointment call : 845 616-1743 or sacredmotherarts@gmail.com |

"I had an amazing birth experience. Mavis Gewant as my doula played a major role in that. She was incredibly supportive leading up to and most especially at the birth. Her experienced and calming presence along with her physical techniques helped me to have the natural childbirth I wanted. She also helped me to establish breastfeeding immediately after the birth. I highly recommend her services to anyone." - Jen Hynes
"Mavis is an extremely caring, knowledgeable and thoughtful person. She attended my son's birth in 2009 and her partner Tara attended my daughter's birth in 2014. My first birth with my son was long: almost three days spent in early labor at home but Mavis was there practically the entire time (and left only for a bit to go feed her dog and get a few hours of rest!). Once we arrived at the Birth Center, she kept me aware of everything that was happening and all of my options. Even though the birth ended in an emergency C-section, I wouldn't have done it again without her there. Not only did she help guide me, but she provided my husband with incredible support - it was difficult for him to watch me go through such a difficult active labor for so long and she was able to help him at the same time. I also attended a "Womb Stories" class with Mavis one year after my son's birth. This class provided much healing through art and discussions with other moms who had difficult birthing experiences". - Amy P.
