Hi, everyone! I’m Cayla! Since becoming certified in 2020, I have been supporting families from pregnancy all the way through the postpartum period. Rather than believe any birth plan or goal is better than another, I believe that each family deserves to choose what’s best for them without judgement. My care is deeply rooted in providing evidence based information, unbiased support, and the tools you need to make informed decisions. My care is evidence based, and flexible to accommodate the needs of your family as a unit. As early as conception and as late as baby’s 1st birthday, I’m right here with you every step of the way. Questions? Let’s chat!

MISSION
The mission of The Penmanship Lab is to provide quality handwriting coaching to foster a natural and automatic skill, improve legibility and efficiency while having FUN!
Is Handwriting Coaching WRITE for your child?
Handwriting coaching is a great option for a child who is struggling with handwriting.
