Get to know me…

Hey, I’m Tiff — placenta enthusiast, birth nerd, and unapologetic advocate for moms who deserve way more support than they’re getting.

My first postpartum experience was a shock to my system. Although I thought I was prepared for the realities of life with a newborn, postpartum anxiety and rage hit hard.

I quickly realized how little real-world support new moms actually get. There’s this giant gap between giving birth and that six-week checkup where most of us are just expected to “figure it out.”

I started The Placenta Girl (formerly Karma Birth Services) to help moms recover, feel supported, and actually enjoy postpartum — not just survive it.

I’m certified in childbirth education through BirthWorks International, a trained and experienced birth and postpartum doula, and a certified Placenta Encapsulation Specialist through IPPA. I also hold a NJ Food Safety & Handler’s Card, OSHA certification for placenta encapsulators, and advanced training as a Perinatal Mental Health Specialist through Postpartum Support International. On top of that, I’m a Fair Play Facilitator and Bringing Baby Home Educator through the Gottman Institute — because the relationship and household stuff matters just as much as the physical recovery.

I was born and raised in Cherry Hill, where I still live with my two kids and a chaotic mix of pets. I’m a late-diagnosed neurodivergent mom raising two neurodivergent kids, a former homeschooling mom (and I miss it every day), and before all this, I taught 6th-grade social studies and owned a kids’ yoga studio called Yoga Clubhouse.

When I’m not elbow-deep in placentas, you can find me in the garden, on a trail, or at a protest. I love spicy beers, hate small talk, and I’m on a mission to make postpartum suck less for everyone.
