As my apprenticeship in Traditional Midwifery grows, I am honored to share that beginning July 2025, my presence at the bedside will primarily be as a student and assistant midwife. While my path is expanding, my heart remains in the Hearth; I continue to offer doula support for returning clients seeking comfort again. If you feel called to have me walk this threshold with you, please reach out via our inquiry form.
As an Apprentice Midwife, I provide prenatal care for low-risk, home birth mothers, under the supervision of my Preceptors with The Way of Tradition Birth Collective. For more information on my specific trainings, certifications and qualifications, visit my “About” page, or fill out a contact form.
