Hi, I’m Denean, a Registered Nurse with a passion for women’s health, labour and delivery, and helping families navigate one of life’s most transformative experiences.

​

I began my nursing career in 2011, working in surgery before moving into labour and delivery in 2022. My path into birth work was deeply influenced by my own experiences as a mother. After two hospital births, I immersed myself in learning about pregnancy and physiological birth while preparing for the home birth of my third daughter. That experience transformed the way I viewed birth and inspired me to pursue the work I feel privileged to do today.

​

As both a nurse and a mother of three daughters, I am committed to providing evidence-based, holistic education that helps families feel informed, confident, and empowered throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Teaching has always been one of my greatest joys, and it is a privilege to support families as they welcome a new baby and embrace this new chapter.

​

Outside of work, you’ll usually find me listening to audiobooks, watching trashy reality TV, walking my Golden Retriever, Honey, or driving my daughters to their many activities. I love living in Comox Valley and connecting to all the nature and beauty it has to offer! 

I am grateful to be part of the wonderful team at Cedar House Birth Collective and look forward to supporting your family during this special time.
