THE PERSON BEHIND THE CARE

I am Bethany.

An Irish-Filipina birthworker based in the South Puget Sound.

My work is grounded in Traditional Filipino Indigenous Medicine and Kapampangan practices from my lineage.

I seek to blend modern birth care with ancestral practices that honor the stories of the families I support.
