About me

My name is Hazel Alvarez. As an Independent BirthKeeper and Teacher, I hold space for women to find the fullness of their power, to learn to truly trust, connect and listen to their bodies and to give birth in a way that makes her feel seen, heard, safe and respected. I offer the Quantum Model of Care when it comes to pregnancy and birth. This means that I prioritize Nurturing of both the mom and her partner, Soul-Level Connections with mom, recognition of Self-directed women who know what they want, Trust & Transparency, and Birth as an Altered State of Consciousness. Always knowing and acknowledging that there is a divine power that is always guiding us through the miracle of life. I am knowledgeable and respectful of both the physiology and the mystical aspects of birth. You were born to navigate your birth and to be in tune with your divine vessel. I am humbled by the honor that I am being called to witness birth as it should be.

Hazel is an incredibly knowledgeable and intuitive care giver. She deeply cares for the women she works with. Women feel nurtured and supported, which is so important throughout pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Hazel brings a sense of calm, peace, and protection when she walks into a room! She is so in-tune to the energy she brings into a space. Instantly, you feel like you just took a nourishing deep breath. Hazel believes in a mother's strength and capabilities, trusts normal, physiologic birth, and will act as a trusted, supportive, and knowledgeable companion during this beautiful time of your life. I highly recommend!
