The Proactive
Pregnancy

A proactive approach to an empowered birth

Hi, I’m Lexi!

I am a registered nurse, and I have worked in the NICU for 4 years. Throughout my time I’ve heard countless birth stories- all beautiful in their own way but often with the takeaway: “I wish I was more prepared for xx.” This lack of information surrounding a pivotal experience that should be empowering led me to build The Proactive Pregnancy.

I wholeheartedly believe all women can have an empowering birth, and that there are countless steps they can take in pregnancy to improve their birth success and outcomes. As a “crunchy nurse” I offer a balanced discussion regarding medical and holistic interventions, and I am passionate about painting the full picture so women can make their own decisions for their dream birth.

I specialize in unmedicated hospital birth, but discuss all birthing environments including home birth and cesarean sections. I am a certified childbirth instructor through Childbirth International, and I am thrilled to help you make your dream birth a reality.
