Know the Benefits!

Physical Recovery

Mothers report faster recovery while taking placenta. Your placenta contains vitamins and hormones that may assist in recovery and breast milk production like b-vitamins, prolactin, TSH, prostaglandins, and oxytocin.

Experience Counts!

I have safely processed more than 400 placentas for families. I use rigorous safety protocols to ensure that your placenta is stored and processed at correct temperatures, prepared with sterilized equipment, and safe from contamination. You can trust my experience to provide you with the highest level of service and safety!

Emotional Balance

Placenta can help you stay balanced as you navigate sleep deprivation and the anxious first few days as a new parent. While it doesn’t prevent postpartum depression, it can help smooth out those emotional edges and make you just feel better – Like you got this whole parenthood thing!

“I hired Bethany to hame my placenta encapsulated with both of my pregnancies. She makes the whole process so easy. She picked up my placenta the day of delivery and dropped off the capsules the very next day. She’s very passionate and knowledgeable about her work. I am so grateful for Bethany and this wonderful service she provides!”

How does this work?

  • Contact me to get on the calendar and fill out the client intake form easily from the online link.
  • You pack a cooler and 2-3 gallon Ziploc bags for ice with your hospital bag and let your providers know you are keeping your placenta. You may have to fill out a waiver form if you are birthing in the hospital.
  • Message me when you are in labor or when your baby is born, and I will arrange the transport of your placenta based on your choice in the intake form.
  • Your placenta is prepared in my designated placenta kitchen in my home. It will be sliced and dehydrated based on the method or add-on services you choose. Once dehydrated, your placenta is ground into powder, put into capsules, and packaged for delivery.
  • I will call when everything is finished and arrange the drop-off of your capsules. Turnaround time is typically 48 hours!

Simple. Safe. Secure.

Preparation Methods


Balanced Method

Your placenta is prepared by rinsing, slicing, and dehydrating at 160 degrees for 18-24 hours until completely free of any water. Then the pieces are ground into a powder and put into capsules. This method typically yields the most capsules. No matter the method you choose, your placenta will be handled with safety and care!

Purple Placenta Pills in a small jar

I loved my pills, tincture & cord. Bethany did an amazing job and I couldn’t have asked for anything more. She even made a painting of my placenta (which I wouldn’t even think to do) and it’s amazing! It makes me so happy every time I see it. It’s absolutely beautiful. She does beautiful work and I would highly recommend her.

Gentle Method

Your placenta is prepared by rinsing, steaming until heated through, slicing, and dehydrating at 160 degrees for 18-24 hours until completely free of any water. Then the pieces are ground into powder and put into capsules. This method is sometimes called the TCM or Traditional Chinese Method. No matter the method you choose, your placenta will be handled with safety and care!
