Who is teaching this class?
My name is Rachel Mueller CD(DONA), CLC, DEM. I've been married to my incredible husband, Jeffrey, for 38 years. Our family consists of four children and five grandchildren. I enjoy the outdoors, hiking, and fishing. In my spare time, I love doing needlework, sewing, and watercolor painting. I worked in retail management, sales and marketing, business management, accounting, and as a professional volunteer before recognizing that birth work is my true vocation. My credentials include being a Certified Aromatherapist, DONA Certified Birth Doula, Certified Lactation Counselor, Independent Childbirth Educator, Certified Microbirth Instructor, Placenta Encapsulation Specialist, Professional Belly Binder, and doTerra Wellness Advocate in addition to my primary role as a Direct Entry Midwife. I also have further training in water birth, Spinning Babies, T.E.N.S., acupressure, and hypnosis for labor. Inspired by the holistic and comprehensive approach of maternal care, in 2010 N.E.A.R. To You Midwifery & Doula Services Ltd. was established.
Birth work sparked a fascination and obsession with the amazing Placenta!
In 2016, I trained under an established Placenta Encapsulation specialist. I later went on to train with Brilliant Birth Academy.
In my seven years as a Placenta Encapsulation Specialist, I have developed a proprietary encapsulation technique.

divine Placenta.
