A message from Kimberly to mothers and families about Birth and Postpartum Support
To every mother, parent, and growing family — I see you.
Birth and postpartum are often romanticized, yet the truth is they can be tender, overwhelming, and complex. You deserve support that holds your full experience — the joy, the fear, the questions, and the quiet in between.
I created Alma y Raíz because my own family’s journey showed me what was missing: culturally grounded care, advocacy that honors your story, and spaces that remind you that you don’t have to navigate this alone.
Whether you're birthing for the first time or healing after many births… whether you're joyful, grieving, or somewhere in between… you belong here. I am here to support you with compassion, clarity, and care that centers you — your voice, your roots, and your needs.
Let’s build the village you deserve.
Con cariño,
Kimberly
