To tend the womb is to tend the whole woman
To tend to women is to change culture
Welcome, I’m Maible Arden.
Bodies are designed to return to alignment and remain in integrity.
However, our modern lives (and often modern “healthcare”) ends up de-centering women’s bodies, tipping the scales further out of balance through isolation, lack of support, disconnection from our body’s intelligence, the natural world, and our intuition.
My work is the recentering of the wellness of women.
I am a womb continuum care, provider, postpartum care provider, and mother.
I am a stream follower, a woods wanderer, a crafty little squirrel, and a soup maker.
I am a weaver of web and village: of support, of stories, of resourcing for women and mothers.
I am a lifelong student of women’s bodies, midwifery, herbalism, my ancestors, motherhood, and my own womb.
I have supported women across the womb continuum - fertility and birth support and education, postpartum care, and women’s health - with an orientation to aligning with physiology and nurturing the mystery for most of my life.
I approach women’s well-being through body and spirit, physiology and mystery, biology and intuition. I trust in the healing capacity of our bodies and in the strength of women.
I’m devoted to serving mothers as the nourished, central hub of family and community.
I value and believe in:
Reverence for the Body
The body holds innate wisdom. I trust its ability to heal and return to alignment.
Recentering Women
When women are nourished, their families and communities are nourished too.
Physiology + Mystery
I walk with both science and spirit and offer grounded care rooted in physiology, ceremony, and intuition.
Slow as Sustainable + Soft as Strong
Women are meant to be strong and soft, fierce and nurturing, powerful and receptive. True healing isn’t a quick fix, it takes time and deep presence.
Your Body as Healer
Your womb is the healer. I am not here to fix, but to support and guide the body back to center.
Revillaging
The village needs us just as much as we need the village. We need other women as we grow and birth ourselves into the strong matriarchs the world so deeply needs in these times.

More than anything, my studies and service are shaped by lived experience.
From the little girl in the woods brewing herbal poultices (plantain and mud, of course) and splinting my neighbor’s arm with twigs and twine, grabbing my bow and cardboard mailing tube quiver to fight the trolls for peace for my village (err swamp)…
to the mother and woman I am today, content not only to hold and to support, devoted to the blazing torch for the physiologic design of womanhood and motherhood.
"I would describe Maible to be like a beautiful, strong tree that I could lean on... and at the same time a loving, and caring presence that gifted me like a gentle breeze, songs of prayer and strength. Her presence is really magical and healing."
-Olivia
“Receiving womb care from Maible was a wonderful experience. She was calm, attuned, and responsive to my body’s needs. I felt a lot of alignment in my body after our session. I highly recommend her to anyone looking for womb/body care.”
-Shannon
"Her gentle and loving support helped me dive deeper into myself and my own intuition in my preparation for pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and motherhood."
-Ashke
I am here to be in deep service to women: to support the portals of birth and the creation of families, and to honor and center the womb in all that she is. This isn’t wellness culture or cute “self care Sundays”.
This is remembering and reclaiming the design of womanhood.
When we tend the womb, we tend the whole woman.
When we center women, we change culture.
