"Not only is a baby being born, but so are parents" -Dani Torkelson

Birth & Postpartum Care in the Twin Cities

BIRTH WAS NEVER MEANT TO HAPPEN ALONE


For generations, people entered pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood surrounded by community. Today, many families find themselves navigating one of life's greatest transformations with far less support than they expected.


At Cradle & Roots Birth Co., support is about more than information. It's about creating a space where you feel seen, heard, and safe enough to trust yourself.


Not only is a baby being born, but a parent is being born too.

Welcoming Baby & Growing Family Connections

Hi, I'm Dani.

My path to doula work began at bedsides, on living room floors, & during countless newborn snuggles. For nearly 15 years, I've supported families through some of the most tender and transformative moments of early parenthood. Along the way, I discovered something simple but powerful: no one was meant to do this alone.
