The Birth of Earth Milk Moon
Earth Milk Moon was consciously created with the intention of supporting women and their partners through the physical, emotional and spiritual transitions that come with conception, birth and parenthood. Our method is grounded in teaching and encouraging women to connect to their intuition through evidence based education, empowerment and connection to their foundations of culture and spirituality. Guided by an experienced and specialty trained Registered Nurse and International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, our focus is on helping women stay connected, informed and conscious from conception to pregnancy, postpartum, miscarriages, loss, adoption and all experiences in between. We recognize that life shifts can feel lonely and we believe in the power of support. We work to instill in you the knowledge and connection to your intuition that you need when it comes to navigating the complex healthcare system and the transition into motherhood.
About Krista Tarantino, RN, IBCLC
Krista is an experienced Registered Nurse specializing in postpartum wellness and she is International Board Certified Lactation Consultant with a BA in Social and Behavioral Sciences. She is also a certified Innate Postpartum Care Provider which is care from the perspective of traditional teachings of midwifery, woven together with the modern sciences of Epigenetics, Pre and Perinatal Psychology, the Primal Continuum, Psychoneuroimmunology, Woman-Centered Physiology and Anatomy, Somatic Psychology and Neurobiology. Through her years of experience working in Mother/Baby care in multiple hospitals throughout California, she has witnessed the power women have at the most vulnerable time of their lives. Krista’s experience of watching and working with women giving birth to new life, feeling love and loss, and embracing the highs and lows of the transition into motherhood, she has identified that these these rights of passage that happen in women are powerful and deserve acknowledgment. Birth is so much more than the physical act of birth - a powerful emotional and spiritual shift takes place and when a child is born, so is a mother. Krista is honored to walk with women through these shifts and has been moved to encourage her patients to embrace them openly and fully. These transformational experiences have opened her eyes to the importance of conscious health care and postpartum wellness. Teaching women to find guidance through informed choice, community, and within themselves has become her mission. She believes that when women are educated and empowered, our wellness can be an intuitive art. Krista loves making herbal infusions, spending time in nature, being in the ocean, traveling, meditating and teaching women about connecting to our natural cycles and traditional postpartum healing modalities.
