Even though World Breastfeeding Week has come to an end, breastfeeding and nutrition support matter all year long!

We are so blessed to have an IBCLC and Registered Dietitian on our team who specializes in lactation support and perinatal nutrition.

In this video, she shares a little more about why she does what she does and her passion for helping families feel supported with feeding while also helping moms learn how to nourish their own bodies well through pregnancy, postpartum, and breastfeeding.

Good support can make such a difference, and you do not have to figure it all out alone. You deserve the support your heart desires.

If you are looking for lactation or nutrition support, contact us today to learn more about working with our team!

Support does not mean someone taking over.

Sometimes it looks like helping you understand your options.
Sometimes it is hands-on comfort during pregnancy or labor.
Sometimes it is feeding support, a warm meal, newborn care, or simply someone reminding you that you are doing a great job.

Kingdom Beginnings supports families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, lactation, childbirth education, and the transition into life with a new baby.

You do not have to wait until you are overwhelmed to begin building your support team.

Schedule a complimentary discovery call to learn what support may fit your family.

World Breastfeeding Week

To the mom who breastfed for one day, one week, one year, or several years, your story matters.

Breastfeeding can look like nursing at the breast, pumping and offering breastmilk in a bottle, or a combination of both. It is the late nights, the learning curves, the questions, the tears, the victories, and the countless opportunities to learn something new about our babies and our bodies.

There is something so beautiful about God’s perfect design, a mother’s body creating nourishment uniquely made for her baby.

Whether your breastfeeding journey was long, short, simple, complicated, joyful, or incredibly hard, there is space to honor it.

Drop an emoji in the comments describing your breastfeeding journey!

In the last photo you will see an almost 3 year old who still often asks to drink breastmilk with his favorite cup and favorite straw! ❤️

Laura left us this review on Google, and it warmed our hearts!

"Emma was supportive, flexible and adaptive, and offered many suggestions/provider referrals as questions arose."

Just a snippet of what she shared... Laura is a Minnesota mom who worked with doula Emma through a pregnancy and birth that had more twists than they expected. That's what doulas do- show up ready for whatever comes!!

If you're in Minnesota or Western Wisconsin and looking for a birth doula who can roll with it when things don't go as planned, we're here. 🤍

A quick reminder for the mama who already feels behind before the week has even begun:

You do not have to do everything today! You do not have to carry every need alone. Give yourself permission to slow down, ask for additional help, and take this week one baby step at a time.

God is already present in every single detail you are trying to manage.

“Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest.”
- Matthew 11:28

Madelyn at Nourish 911 is somebody we count it as a privilege to refer to. She is incredibly skilled at what she does, and she just simply gets it.

Today we are celebrating her and 2 years of Nourish 911!

Thank you for the work you are doing and all of the ways you are blessing Minnesota families.

2 years ago I started my LLC, because of this moment. This picture looks sweet, but what you can't see are the tears streaming down my face.

Because nursing wasn't easy for me and I felt lost.

Because I sat in the waiting room to see a lactation consultant desperate for answers with a screaming baby just to be told "everything looks great."

Because nobody told me skin to skin would help keep my baby's blood sugar regulated.

Because triple feeding with no end in sight did not feel sustainable.

Because I did not want another mom to feel the way I did.

Because support matters, how you feel matters, and your journey is important.

Because starting a breastfeeding business focused on giving moms support during World Breastfeeding Week felt right.

This week has been one of the busiest yet and I could not imagine this two years ago.

Thank you for inviting me into your vulnerable moments. I see you. I hear you.

Happy World Breastfeeding Week everyone!

Celebrating One Year of Kingdom Beginnings! 🎉

One year ago, Kingdom Beginnings officially became more than my individual doula practice. It became the agency and collective the Lord had been placing on my heart for a long time.

This was never my plan. God led me from working as a construction foreman into birth and postpartum support, and then began pressing me to build something even bigger.... a team rooted in fellowship, collaboration, and well-rounded care for families.

At a birth worker gathering, I finally shared what I felt called to create. My friend Anna asked, “Have you prayed about it?” When I said yes, she followed with, “And what has the Lord said?”

I knew in that moment there was no more arguing or avoiding it. He meant what He had already made clear over the past several months and it was time to be obedient to HIS plan.

This past year has been one continual act of obedience and such a beautiful reminder of God’s goodness. I am deeply grateful for every woman on our team, every family who has trusted us, and the way each person’s unique strengths come together to create something none of us could offer alone.

To celebrate our first anniversary, we are blessing four families who book services by August 15th with Kingdom Beginnings service credits:

👉 The first family to book will receive a $500 service credit
👉 The second, third, and fourth families to book will each receive a $150 service credit

These may be applied toward birth doula support, postpartum care, or sibling doula services and are subject to availability.

Thank you for being part of the Kingdom Beginnings story. I could not do any of this without the Lord, and I am so thankful He changed my heart, stretched my faith, and gave me such a deep passion for leading this team and supporting families.

All glory belongs to Him, today and every day!

Recently, I had the privilege of doing a 5K in honor of children who have been lost at any stage of life. I walked in honor of my son Ashton, my niece Delilah, and every child called Home to the Lord earlier than we anticipated.

For many families, pregnancy and infant loss are carried quietly. Their children are deeply loved, remembered, and forever part of their family’s story, even when the world does not always know how to acknowledge them.

The nonprofit creates space to remember, honor, and say their names. It was so beautifully meaningful to walk alongside others who understand that a child’s life is worthy of remembrance, no matter how brief.

As a mother who has experienced loss, this was especially close to my heart.

“The Lord is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit.” - Psalm 34:18

In loving memory of every child gone too soon. They are remembered. They are loved. They are missed. Their life is celebrated. ❤🎈
