Meet Ashley Filippi

Hello, My name is Ashley Filippi. I am married and I have two boys, Elan (10) and Leo(8).

While on my journey of pregnancy and childbirth, I learned what it is like to be cared for and supported during this time. I used a midwife and learned all the benefits of their physical and emotional support. The support I needed was mind and body.

When I'm not doing birth work, I am going to the park, doing yoga, reading, or studying. I also enjoy traveling!

I feel honored to be able to contribute my expertise to women and families in the Boulder area.
