Ashley Ladroma is a Registered Nurse and a HypnoBirthing Practitioner. Born and raised in Iowa, she now currently lives in Des Moines with her husband, Farfum, their two young sons and new daughter.

 

Ashley began her journey with HypnoBirthing®, The Mongan Method, when she found out she was expecting her first child. The year prior to this pregnancy, Ashley completed her nursing preceptorship in Labor & Delivery. While she had a passion for and loved working with expecting families and new babies, she felt that there was something amiss in the way women were expected to give birth. With the desire to bring her children into the world in the healthiest, safest, most natural way, she and Farfum attended a HypnoBirthing® childbirth education series. She went on to have all three of her children using these techniques and what she calls “the most empowering experiences of my life.” Ashley's desire to help other expecting couples find this same empowerment in their births and in their lives is what lead her to seek certification to teach this program.

 

Ashley holds a Bachelor’s of Arts degree from the University of Iowa in Communication Studies & French and her Bachelor's of Nursing from Saint Mary's University of Minnesota. She received her HypnoBirthing Childbirth Educator certification from the HypnoBirthing Institute and is a Gold Seal member.
