eet your midwife
If you were to ask me when my love for birth began, I would have to say it has always been; the Lord planted a love for this in my DNA. I attended my first birth when I was sixteen, and by the time I had my first child I had attended several births. In 1996 the door opened, and I had the privilege and opportunity to begin working with several midwives as their birth assistant. During the interim, my focus was on being a mom and raising my five children. Then, in 2011 my journey to become a midwife began, as I started my apprenticeship with Donna Miller. Finally in 2014 I became a licensed midwife.
As your midwife, I am committed to holding space for you during the birth process as your body does what it was intuitively designed to do. I will provide highly personalized care that will give your family a strong, connected start. I will take the time to get to know you and your family, learning what you need and want and helping to empower you to take an informed and active role in your care.
Whether this is your first baby or your tenth, each pregnancy is an individually unique experience, and I look forward to supporting you throughout the journey.
