I'm Tnah Louise, and for the past 12 years, I've had the incredible opportunity to support and guide new mothers through their postpartum journeys. My adventure as a mother began 29 years ago with the breathtaking experience of giving birth to my first son on a beach in Costa Rica. This was followed by the sacred water births of my three other sons in our Echo Park home. Raising four boys has woven the most beautiful fabric of my life, and as they've grown into remarkable young men, my passion for postpartum care has only deepened.
The path to this sacred work was unexpected. After a fulfilling career in fashion and children’s photography, I found my true calling while photographing a retreat for birth workers in Ojai. The experience awakened something profound in me, and I knew then that supporting new mothers was my life's purpose. My practice is enriched by global training. I have studied with birth workers who use ancient practices in Mexico, and Morocco, as well as practitioners from around the world. I specialize in postpartum wellness, offering a holistic blend of services that include nourishing meal preparation, placenta encapsulation, ceremonial bathing, 'closing of the bones,' energetic womb work and the sacred art of Bengkung belly binding. As a Postpartum Mother Roaster my approach involves more than physical care—it involves nurturing the new mother's body and soul. Whether through home visits or meal deliveries, my postpartum services are tailored to meet each mother's unique needs. My clients’ heartfelt testimonials tell the story of the healing, comfort, and joy I strive to bring into their lives. With a history of only five-star reviews on Yelp, I’m proud of the difference my work makes for these new mothers in their most vulnerable of times . Beyond providing postpartum care, I am an ordained Minister and Life Cycle celebrant who is called to create rituals + ceremonies that celebrate all phases of life. From celebrations of life (birth and death), marriage ceremonies, and rites of passages to mark milestones for those who may want something more spiritual then religious. I am passionate about empowering young women through my Sacred Menarche program. This program celebrates the significance of their menstrual cycles and feminine power, and is designed to foster self-awareness, confidence, and a deep connection to womanhood. I hope to usher in the change making young women who can save our planet. Rooted in my Mexica/Yaqui + Irish heritage, I blend ancient traditions with modern expertise to provide a transformative experience for every person I assist. 2024 my journey has expanded to offering postpartum care in France, and I am back to learning as I prepare to honor the sacred cycle of life through my training as a death doula. If you are looking for a deeply connected, comprehensive postpartum experience, I am here to provide compassionate care and nourishment every step of the way. With Love, Tnah Louise |
