In-home and virtual perinatal coaching for expectant and postpartum mothersin DC
We help expectant and new moms learn how to take care of themselves, while taking care of baby.
While many maternal health providers focus on either physical challenges OR mental health, Seven Mothers takes a different approach: we consider all the ways motherhood impacts you-
body, mind, heart, and home.
There is a better way to navigate motherhood.

Step 1
Free 15-minute consultation.
We will schedule a complimentary 15-minute phone call to get to know your pain points and how we can work together to bring relief.
I share more about my approach and the strategies I can use to help you and your family through this challenging phase.
Step 2
Comprehensive Evaluation
The 90-minute assessment will be conducted within the comfort of your home. I take a holistic approach to understand your pregnancy and/or postpartum journey, including medical health conditions, challenges experienced during pregnancy, birth, or postpartum, and current pain points.
We look at your home environment, routines, family/household responsibilities, caretaking preferences, sleep and more, and come up with a plan to help you feel like yourself again.
The struggle is real, but it doesn’t have to be painful.
Schedule your free 15-minute consultation today to get started and feel like yourself again.
Step 3
Personalized Plan
Following the evaluation, we will come up with a step-by-step plan to address the pain points we came up with. You are the driver of this plan and recommendations will be customized to your home, lifestyle, and parenting preferences.
Follow-up in-home or virtual visits may be scheduled to provide ongoing support as your needs continue to change throughout the perinatal period, including a crucial 2-week follow-up visit to address how you are adjusting to life post-baby.

An Occupational Therapy Assessment begins with an interview to understand areas of strengths and needs of the parent(s) individually, and within their relationship with baby (Occupational Profile). Goals are generated based on the desires of mom and/or parents, and tangible strategies are shared as part of a short- and long-term treatment plan. Additionally, we will help identify signs of PMADs and connect the family to additional resources, if needed.
Home visits are typically 90 minutes and are available in Washington, DC at this time.

Virtual appointments are ideal for consultations or as follow-up from a home visit. A virtual appointment includes a brief Occupational Profile, and support with routines/schedules, self-regulation and co-regulation, energy conservation and strategies for rest, and help identifying PMADs. Clients will receive tools and resources they can immediately apply in order to address identified areas of need.
Virtual visits are typically 60 minutes and are available in Washington, DC at this time.
