My name is Deena Blumenfeld. I spent 15 years guiding women to the threshold of motherhood so they may step through the door on their own with grace and confidence. Labor is work and birth is truly transformational. My passion and my past profession both are pregnancy and childbirth.
I am a historian, a collector, a writer, a childbirth educator, doula, prenatal yoga instructor. I’m also the mother to two wonderful humans, a college student and a high schooler.
I am a public health professional working in non-profit management.
I was the owner and principal educator at Shining Light Prenatal Education in Pittsburgh Pa for 15 years. I keep the website active so I don’t lose my blog posts. I am no longer taking clients.
