This morning we welcomed an amazing little girl who needed to come in her own time and in her own way. She is perfect in every way. Mama worked so hard for her and Dad is smitten! Welcome baby J! 🩷

I am happy and proud to provide care for transgender people in my practice.

Today is Transgender Day of Visibility.

TDOV takes place on March 31st each year to celebrate trans and non-binary people and raise awareness of discrimination faced by trans people worldwide.

More than ever trans people need to know they have support.

Remember: there is no such thing as a silent ally.

Families ask about Vitamin K at birth. I recommend all babies get Vitamin K. There is solid evidence for giving it, and I have seen babies with this type of brain bleed. While we always respect a family's decision whether to give or not, we do recommend it be given.

Happy New Year to all current, past, and future clients!

Do you know that midwives provide annuals, GYN, and can order labs and ultrasounds for you? Visits can be in person or virtual if no exam is needed

I am now scheduling new and returning patients, including GYN and pregnancy care and birth. If I don't accept your insurance I can take your FSA/HSA card or I accept self pay clients as well. Currently accepting CDPHP, BCBS plans and UHC/Empire Plan.

Call 518-732-5150 to schedule.

Happy Kwanzaa to all who celebrate!

Habari Gani? Happy Kwanzaa!

This week, we honor African American heritage, unity, self-determination, creativity, purpose, and the shared responsibility of uplifting our communities. Each principle of Kwanzaa — from Umoja (Unity) to Imani (Faith) — reflects the values Dr. Maya Angelou championed throughout her life: cultural pride, collective strength, and deep-rooted community care.

In “Gather Together in My Name”, Dr. Angelou wrote:
“I believe that every person is born with talent.”

This belief lies at the heart of Kwanzaa. It reminds us that every individual carries a gift — a light meant to be nurtured, shared, and strengthened within the community. As we celebrate this season, may we honor our talents, uplift one another’s potential, and continue building the world our ancestors envisioned.

Wishing you a week of connection, creativity, empowerment, and joy.

🖤❤️💚

We of course, have known this for years. But I love one scientific studies show what we know to be true.
