Motherhood is the biggest gamble in the world. It is the glorious life force. It's huge and scary — it's an act of infinite optimism.

—Gilda Radner

Hi, I’m Geri. I’ve been supporting expectant and new families for over twenty years as a birth and postpartum doula as they navigate this tender and transformative time.

The support, confidence and friendships my doula and birthing community gave me while living far from my family inspired me to go down the path of supporting new families. I mentored and worked for many years with Sasha Padron at the Centre for Growing Families and trained as a Childbirth Educator at Birthing from Within (LINK). As a certified Yoga Instructor, I have over twenty years of experience in teaching pre and postnatal yoga at Yoga Space (LINK) in Toronto and hosting mothers circles out of my own home. I completed an Early Childhood training (Birth to Three focus) at the Rudolf Steiner College Canada in Richmond Hill (LINK). Most recently I’ve worked closely with a wonderful mentor Beth Berry and completed her Motherwoven (LINK) Facilitator training. When not working, travelling, or getting out in nature, I’m adjusting to life as a mother of two far-flung beautiful adult children.


More about threemoons…

The three moons archetype is a framework that, when referring to motherhood, is used to reference three stages of a woman’s life; the maiden, mother and crone. Or you can see the waxing, full and waning moons as representing new beginnings, fulfillment, and wisdom.
