Hi, I’m Kaja
Founder of KLR Baby, midwife, labor and delivery nurse, birth/postpartum doula, lactation consultant and mom of two.
I've had the privilege of supporting families since 2009. Over the years, I've walked alongside thousands of parents through the transformative experiences of pregnancy, birth, and early parenthood.
My academic journey began with an undergraduate degree from Seattle University, followed by a Master's in Midwifery from Marquette University. These foundations, combined with continuous education and hands-on experience, ensure that I bring both evidence-based knowledge and heartfelt understanding to every family I work with.
At KLR Baby Aspen, my mission is to provide personalized guidance that respects your unique values and choices. Whether you're planning to conceive, navigating pregnancy, preparing for birth, or adjusting to life with a newborn, I'm here to offer clarity, confidence, and compassionate care.
Located in the beautiful Roaring Fork Valley, CO. I offer in-person services in Aspen, Snowmass, Basalt, Carbondale and surrounding areas, with remote options available for families near and far.
