ADVANCED PLANNING

Whether you're 35 or 85, physically well or facing serious illness, it is vital to take the time to lay out the details for every aspect of your end of life care.  Proactive discussion and planning for death is a gift to yourself and your loved ones and won't leave them guessing your desires in the throes of a very difficult time. 

VIGIL CARE

Vigil care is the time and space at the bedside in the final stages of dying.  This service allows for the planning of this important time to make it uniquely special for your family.  My role is to support those present, advocate if necessary, educate on what to expect and provide respite so everyone is supported.

HOME FUNERAL

Before the late 1800s, funerals took place in the homes of those who'd passed away.  Families took the time to care for & tangibly say 'goodbye' to their deceased loved ones.  This service is available to those who want to take back ownership of their loved one's body, as well as reduce costs associated with current funeral traditions.

DOULA CARE

This service is unique to each individual and can be customized to your specific needs.  Some examples could be companionship, running small errands, or assisting in the organization of details for end of life comfort and communication with health and hospice providers.  

LIVING MEMORIAL SERVICE

A living memorial is the opportunity for the one coming to the end of life, to have a celebration of life in the presence of those they care about most deeply BEFORE they are gone.
