Meet Tracy
Since childhood, teachers, family, and prestigious members of her community remarked on Tracy Abney’s nurturing presence. Her impressive career resume began at a young age when she began caring for children and it continued on through high school where she provided volunteer hours to assist others in the classroom. Tracy went on to become a daycare teacher, a professional nanny, and an exercise instructor while she pursued her education in biblical studies, elementary education and science at Southeastern University and Jackson Community College.
Soon after, she earned her bachelor of science degree from Eastern Michigan University in elementary education with minors in math, science and the structure of discipline. Tracy’s thirst for knowledge is all consuming.
After being inspired by her own birth experience, where she felt scared and alone, Tracy redirected and pursued a career where she could help other new parents feel confident and connected as they welcomed their children into their hearts and homes.
With her thirst for knowledge intact, Tracy began training and studying to become a professional birth worker. Her most prestigious certifications include being certified as a trainer to teach new birth professionals to become labor and postpartum doulas as well as postpartum placenta specialists. Her current certifications include:
Gentle Childbirth Certification
Waterbirth Certification
