The Full Story
My name is Macilynn Ames, and I am a dedicated Registered Nurse specializing in labor and delivery. With an extensive career spanning over nine years, I have had the privilege of serving at 15 different hospitals. This journey has not only allowed me to contribute my skills and compassion to countless families but has also immersed me in a wide array of cultures and medical practices related to childbirth.
Throughout my career, I have been committed to providing comprehensive support to my patients—offering emotional, physical, and intellectual guidance during one of the most significant moments of their lives. Each family's journey has been a learning experience for me, enriching my understanding and appreciation of the diverse needs and concerns that accompany the labor and delivery process.
Many of the families I've worked with have shared their questions, concerns, frustrations, and fears—highlighting aspects of their labor experience that were not fully addressed beforehand. These interactions have underscored the importance of open communication and personalized care in creating a positive and informed childbirth experience.
On this website, I aim to share the insights and lessons I've gathered from my years of experience. My goal is to provide expectant families with the knowledge and support they need to navigate their childbirth journey with confidence and peace of mind. Thank you for joining me here, and I look forward to being a part of your journey.

How would this session benefit ME?
There is only so much preparing that can be done for the actual Labor & Delivery experience. With all of the unknowns, my time with you will help give clarity & guidance on what may or may not happen so that you don’t walk into a delivery room blindly or with anxiety. I want you to embrace every moment of your birth process with peace & understanding.
Why would I need meditation during labor?
The labor & delivery process is more than just a physical experience; It is also a state of mind. With guided visualizations, deep breathing & connecting mind to body, you will be able to utilize these tools to help get through any stage of labor. This tool is highly valued & can make a positive, impact on your birth (vaginal or cesarean).
What is a Birth Box for?
A birth box consists of tools you can use for the actual labor or cesarean experience. Each tool is purposeful in its own way. The birth box is not created for “pain management”, but rather serves to promote feelings of increased tranquility, positivity and focus.
