Julie Behnken

Postpartum Doula · Family Chef

Julie is a postpartum doula, and is trained in postpartum nutrition and reiki for birth/postpartum. Julie believes it is an honor to support and empower birthing people, their babies, and families at this tender stage of the parenting journey. Julie comes to Sanctuary after working for 14 years as a child care provider for infants and toddlers, with a strong foundation in Waldorf/LifeWays-oriented care, RIE, as well as experience with Montessori. Julie loves to read, knit, eat good gluten-free food, learn - often exploring rabbit holes of information about health, sleep, food, and astrology for fun - and strives to be a better gardener.

Julie is available for:

• postpartum day visits

• family chef visits
