Hi, I’m Michelle!
I am a Registered Nurse (RN) with nearly a decade of experience working in obstetrical care, supporting women and families through pregnancy, labour, and birth. In 2023, I transitioned into nursing education, bringing my labour and delivery experience to the classroom, where I primarily teach about maternal and newborn care. This inspired me to further my education, and in 2025, I completed my Master of Nursing degree with a focus on teaching and leadership.
My years in Labour & Delivery (L&D) have given me an inside look at the hospital system — the processes, the terminology, and what actually happens behind the scenes. I love taking that knowledge and breaking it down into plain, practical language that makes sense. One of the biggest things I’ve learned is that sometimes, you don't need more information — you need time to talk it through. I want to offer a space to ask questions, explore your options, and talk through the fears and uncertainties that can be difficult to fit into a busy healthcare appointment.
Now that I’ve experienced pregnancy, birth, and motherhood myself, I bring that perspective to the table, too. Experiencing the healthcare system from the other side gave me a new understanding of what it’s like to be the one asking questions, making decisions, and navigating the unknown.
The Story Behind Two Sides of Mom
Working in L&D has given me a front-row seat to the questions that can come up during pregnancy and birth, and how valuable it can be to have someone talk them through with you.
When I became a mom myself, I saw pregnancy and birth from a whole new side. I realized there’s a space between a formal prenatal class and simply Googling your questions — a space for the things you actually want to know, explained in a way that feels practical, personal, and easy to understand.
That’s why I created Two Sides of Mom. Whether you have a few questions you want to talk through or you want to build your own prenatal à la carte education experience, my goal is to help you feel a little more informed, a little more confident, and a little less overwhelmed.
