A Bit About Me

Jaydee has worked in the realms of education, empowerment, and therapeutic transformation for the past 22 years.

From 1999 - 2016 Jaydee focused her efforts on being an Independent Midwife, Midwifery Instructor, and Administrator of The Matrona, a holistic Midwifery School. Providing authentic, instinctual, spiritual perinatal support and education across North America.

Beyond birth, Jaydee has spent time studying and offering herself as a Special Education & Home School Teacher, Raw Vegan Food Nutritionist & Caterer, and Board Member to Non-Profits such as Sacred Birthing, The Matrona Foundation, and The Global Leadership Network. In particular to education, she has co-created two Sudbury Community Schools and a Waldorf Homeschool Group.

In 2015 she founded the non-profit, Trimeria, with her partner Jay. Broadening her offerings into the realms of mental health and trauma care, specifically through becoming a certified Brainspotting Practitioner.

Personally, Jaydee is a mom to five bio kids and one step-child. Four of her five children were born at home with midwives, while one was a home Freebirth!

Jaydee is excited to be in the role of founding AATA! It has been a lifelong dream to begin a learning environment that is cutting-edge, holding the future of humanity at its highest.

Nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains, along with her partner and six children, she is working to uphold freedom and a future for generations to come.
