Short bio:
Hello! My name is Tashona. I was born in sunny Florida and raised in the wonderful state of North Carolina. As a 10 year military spouse I've moved many, many times and am thrilled to have landed back at home in North Carolina. My family includes my husband of over 20 wonderful years and our four amazing children. We live right outside of Charlotte in Midland, NC and love being out of the busy-ness of the city but close enough to the city to do the cool stuff. Outside of work I enjoy creating lifelong family memories, attempting all types of DIY crafts and projects (and sometimes actually completing them), fine tuning my green thumb, and learning from and sharing with women from every generation across all walks of life.
My heart for serving women gave birth to Viumbe Birth and Wellness, LLC. I believe strongly that I was created to help, serve, and care for others so that they can fully do what they were created to do. After becoming a licensed massage therapist in 2013 and specializing in women's wellness, my passion for the prenatal period led me down the path of becoming certified in Fertility Massage (for both partners), Prenatal, Labor, and Postpartum Massage, and Infant Massage instruction. These massage certifications are what introduced me to birth work and now I can't imagine doing anything else. I took my first doula training with DONA International in 2014 and a second with The Birth Well in 2016. In an effort to support as many growing families as I can I've added childbirth education, placenta encapsulation and a handful of other offerings to the services I provide. I enjoy building relationships with not only my clients but also other professionals and am happy to connect the two when needed.
Enough about me, I want to hear about you. Pregnancy is such a special time and birth is such a special event in your life, your baby's life, and your family's life. The way you experience it will create a ripple effect in your life. I would be honored to support you through it and help you create a positive ripple... whether you're planning a home, birth center, or hospital birth it should be a birth you recall with all the good feels for years and years. So, what excites you? What concerns you? I hope to hear from you so that we can discuss how I can best support you.
