HEY THERE
I am Ariel (she/her). A mom of 4, it was after my second was born that I jumped into birth and lactation work. The details have changed over the years but the heart behind everything remains the same… to support families, hopefully wipe a few tears and see a few smiles as they transition, grow and work towards their birth, postpartum and feeding goals. I'm rooting for you!

Ariel Ewefada is a DONA International certified birth doula, certified lactation counselor, Dynamic Body Balancing Facilitator (CST/DBB), Lamaze certified childbirth educator and placenta encapsulator, who has been doing birth and lactation work since 2016. She’s the queen mom (at least that’s what she tells her kids) of a vibrant Mexican-Nigerian-Minnesotan home in the north suburbs of Minneapolis with her husband and 4 hilariously sassy children that all have E names. Most days you can find her running around with her littles exploring all the fabulous family-friendly spots in the cities, working out her local crossfit gym, leading a parent group at the YMCA, and always with a cup of coffee. As an Enneagram 3 wing 2, she has the nurturing heart that is easily adaptable to any birth/postpartum/lactation scenario. Evidenced based and intuition led, you'll find reason that speaks to your mind and connection that touches your heart.

Ariel will be sitting for the IBCLC (International Board Certified Lactation Consultant) exam in September, 2024.
