“I had the absolute pleasure of working with Kelsey (Chieko), and I truly can’t say enough good things about her. She provided the most amazing rebozo work—gentle, grounding, and deeply restorative. From the moment I walked in, she had set the energy just right with calming music and soft, soothing lighting. Her intuitive touch and attention to detail made the experience feel sacred. The rebozo work was exactly what my body needed to stay aligned between chiropractic visits, and it helped ease the lower leg pain I had been struggling with for weeks.

As if that wasn’t enough, Kelsey’s postpartum meal service was an absolute dream. Every dish was nourishing, comforting, and made with so much love—but her chicken posole in particular was incredible. It was flavorful, healing, and exactly what my body and soul needed. Each bite felt like it was made just for me.

If you’re looking for someone who brings heart, skill, and deep healing into every aspect of her care, Kelsey is it. She is truly a gift to the birthing and postpartum community.”

“I met Chieko at an event my doula hosted. I instantly knew Chieko would be my midwife. Chieko has an extensive knowledge as a midwife, she approaches with a holistic point of view. She has patience to hear all of my concerns. Chieko made sure to meet my needs in a personal way. During my labor & delivery I felt very safe and empowered( Chieko also had her assistant present, whom was amazing) There aren't enough words to show the appreciation and admiration I have towards Chieko. I will forever be grateful that she was part of my pregnancy journey! <3”

“I had the honor of being taken care of by Sana Sana Midwifery during my last trimester and in my first forty days in my first pregnancy. I wanted nurturing care that focused on spiritual and ancestral practices and nourishing traditional foods. I got exactly that with Chieko and Natalie. The meals were extremely satisfying and nutrient dense. I loved the work with rebozos and even purchased one for myself during an educational and community event they put on for birth workers. I felt more connected to my body, my baby and my energy with their weekly in home services. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a deeper connection to their birthing experience.”

“We worked with Kelsey (Chieko) starting about halfway through my pregnancy. From the beginning we felt really comfortable with her and her calm, zen nature. Our plan was to have a home birth but unfortunately when my water broke at home we had to transfer over to the hospital. Out of everything we experienced with Kelsey this part was the one that will stick with me because she was so calm and reassuring and made the transfer so easy. She came with us to the hospital and made sure to check in with us through an unexpected c-section and postpartum.

Know that if you decide to have Kelsey as your midwife, you will be in good hands through whatever your journey is.”
