Almost exactly one year ago, I walked with this sweet family through one of the most heartbreaking moments a parent can face — the loss of their baby through miscarriage. Those days were filled with grief, questions, prayers, and quiet tears. Moments like that remind me that midwifery isn’t only about catching babies; it’s about holding space for families in every chapter of their story.
And today, almost to the day, I had the incredible honor of welcoming their precious rainbow baby earthside.
In the same journey where there was once loss, there was now life. In the same story that held grief, there was now joy. God has such a beautiful way of bringing things full circle, and witnessing His faithfulness unfold in a birth story is something I will never take for granted.
Watching this mama labor peacefully in warm water, surrounded by love, prayer, and strength, and then seeing her lift her baby up into her arms was a moment that felt truly sacred. Moments like these remind me that birth is more than physical — it is deeply spiritual.
To be the midwife trusted to walk beside a family through miscarriage, and then to later help welcome their rainbow baby into the world, is one of the greatest privileges of my life.
Babies lost to miscarriage may be gone from our arms, but they are never forgotten. God holds those little lives close, and they forever change the hearts of the families who love them. They become part of the story of every baby who comes after.
Today we celebrate this beautiful rainbow, while still honoring the little life that came before. 🌈🤍God is faithful in every season.
Welcome to the world, sweet baby. Your story was written in love long before this day.

That creamy white coating you see on a newborn? That’s vernix caseosa — and it’s pure magic. ✨
Vernix is a protective, antimicrobial biofilm that covers baby’s skin in utero. It helps:
• Protect baby’s delicate skin from amniotic fluid
• Support healthy temperature regulation after birth
• Provide natural antibacterial protection
• Ease the journey through the birth canal
• Promote skin-to-skin bonding and absorption after birth
There is no rush to wipe it away — it’s nature’s perfect first layer of protection. 🤍
This birth was especially powerful. In the comfort of their home here in Chattanooga, mom and dad worked beautifully as a team. She trusted her body fully, stood grounded in her strength, and delivered her 9lb 14oz baby while standing — powerful, steady, in control. Dad right there beside her, supporting, anchoring, witnessing.
And then… the sweetest pause. Together they welcomed their son earthside, soaking in that first hour — covered in vernix, covered in love.
Birth is strength. Birth is partnership. Birth is sacred.

There is nothing more powerful than a first-time mama stepping into her strength.
After a long, steady labor at home — surrounded by the quiet comfort of family, the loyal presence of her sweet dog, and the warm embrace of a soothing birthing tub — she brought her baby into the world with courage, grace, and unstoppable love.
First-time mothers don’t just give birth to babies… they are born, too. 💫
Your strength amazed us. Your determination inspired us. And your love filled every corner of that room.
Welcome to the world, baby boy 💙
You are already so deeply loved.
We are beyond proud of your incredible mom and dad — what a beautiful beginning for your family. ✨

First baby of the ice storm has arrived!
So much better when your birthing team comes to you—instead of driving through icy roads while in labor. 🤍

A Beautiful Home Birth Story ✨
After nine long years of waiting, this sweet family welcomed their precious baby girl—long-awaited, deeply prayed for, and loved beyond measure. 🌸
I had the absolute honor of caring for this mama again, all these years later. Stepping back into their home felt like stepping back into a sacred chapter we once shared. And the most special moment? Watching this new little one be weighed in the very same scale her big sister was weighed in 11 years ago. ❤️
Her siblings were over the moon to finally meet their baby sister—so gentle, so excited, and so full of wonder. The room was filled with joy, peace, and the sweetest anticipation.
This birth was everything home birth is meant to be… calm, connected, sacred. God’s presence was woven through every contraction, every breath, every moment of surrender and strength. ✨
Welcome to the world, beautiful girl. You were worth every minute of the wait. 🤍

✨There’s something so sacred about welcoming your baby right in the heart of your home — surrounded by your children, your partner, and a midwife who feels more like a dear friend than a care provider.
Home birth is about more than just where you give birth — it’s about being seen, supported, and surrounded by love in one of the most powerful moments of your life. 💕
If you’ve ever dreamed of a birth where you feel safe, known, and at peace, I’d love to walk that journey with you.

✨ What a wonderful night at our Pregnancy & Postpartum Support Group! ✨
Our cozy office was filled with mamas—from those just 10 weeks along to a sweet 17-month-old I had the honor of catching. 🩷
It’s such a joy to watch each mother blossom into the most beautiful version of her mothering self.
I started this group after 2020, inspired by the incredible community of women I met through ICAN. Those friendships shaped me as a mother, and I’ll always be grateful for that season.
My hope is to keep creating a space where deep, meaningful friendships grow—and where we can walk this motherhood journey together, supporting and encouraging one another every step of the way. 🤍
