About Danielle at Mothering Life
Hello! My name is Danielle Hughes. I am an INNATE Postpartum Care practitioner and Craniosacral Therapist. My passion and purpose is to prepare and support pregnant and new mothers after they have a baby, so they can thrive. I provide education, hands-on care, community meetups and resources based on traditional wisdom and care practices and tie these teachings into the science behind why these practices work to support the health and well-being of new mothers.
In my own journey as a new mother, I did not prioritize my care. In all honesty, I didn’t even think about it as I was so focused on my babies and didn’t realize the impact that pregnancy and birth were having on my own body. As a result, I struggled for a long time until my mind and body said enough, and I started looking for help that felt right to me.
Through my path, I learned the essentials of postpartum care (rest, warmth, bodywork, nutrition, and community). This information resonated with me on all levels, and I decided to devote my energy and effort to supporting other moms. As a mom who has been there, I am here to let you know that you are NOT alone and that it is never too late to heal. Motherhood is meant to be a time of honoring and celebration.
I created Mothering Life because we can do better as a society to support new moms. I feel that it is my soul’s purpose to bring back the village, to provide support that empowers pregnant and new mothers to connect with their maternal wisdom, to build community, and to truly listen to and recognize women. It is my core belief that: Thriving life starts with thriving mothers! I look forward to providing space where you can tap into your own wisdom and thrive!
“My dream is a world where maternal wellness is recognized and supported as the backbone to a thriving society because when mothers thrive, families thrive. When families thrive our world can flourish” (Danielle Hughes, Mothering Life).
