The founder of Mother Metamorphosis, Melanie, discovered her life's purpose of working with mothers shortly after the birth of her first child. Shortly after, she found out she was pregnant again, and life became chaotic. Two children less than a year apart brought about a lot of postpartum mental health struggles for Melanie. She quickly saw how lacking accessible postpartum support was and vowed to change that. 

​

Through her various studies, she realized how different postpartum care looked around the world. It seemed that the mothers of the world were so deeply cared for. From the sacred days after birth to beautiful ceremonies honoring this new mother; community, culture, and spirit were all at the forefront of care. 

​

Mothers were treated with such reverence. Which directly opposed what postpartum care looks like in the United States. 

​

Melanie studied Ayurvedic postpartum traditions; got certified in personal training with a special focus on pre and post natal movement; has a certification in wellness coaching; certification in birth work; as well as has run a successful birth and postpartum doula service and postpartum meal delivery service during her time in the Bay Area. 

​

Now Melanie serves mothers in the Northern California area, focusing on community events to bring mothers together. 

​

She is dedicated to bringing accessible support to all mothers and to support mothers through a holistic lens, ensuring quality and meaningful care. 

​

Out of her struggles blossomed this organization and she is on a mission to ensure the mothers not only in her physical community but also virtual community feel seen, safe, heard, and nurtured.
