📚 We would like to add a student midwife to our practice, beginning January 2026.

Ideally, candidates would meet the following requirements:

• PEP student
• Phase 2 or experienced doula (10+ births) *this is non-negotiable
• self starter
• loves learning
• has a fantastic sense of humor

Additionally, we would like a student with a thorough understanding of the PEP process, the steps required, and has a solid plan for didactic education.

Our practice is located in a rural area and serves clients within an hour radius. We are not a high volume practice, but stay busy. We enjoy hosting community events, offering classes, and networking with others. You will have opportunities to not just learn hands on midwifery skills, but also how to run a practice. You will either need to reside nearby or be willing to move to the area. This is not a position for a long distance commuter.

Still interested? You may email us a cover letter and resume to thenestbirthhouse@gmail.com. Resumes received without cover letters will not be read.

Inquiries sent via DM will not receive a response.

🌸 Being there for mothers in their most vulnerable moments… it’s something words can hardly describe. 🌾

Each time a mama allows me to step into her sacred space — to hold her hand, breathe with her, and remind her of the strength already within — I’m reminded of why I do this work. 🙌🏿💫

Birth is more than bringing new life into the world — it’s about being seen, supported, and surrounded with love in one of the most powerful transitions a woman will ever experience. 🥹✨

I’m forever honored by the trust placed in me to guide, comfort, and protect that space. 🌿
Thank you to every mama who allows me to walk beside you on this journey. You are the reason my work is rooted in love. 💚

🌞 Good Morning, Beautiful Souls! 🌞

How are you feeling this morning? 🌸
Did you start your day with peace, prayer, or maybe just a few deep breaths to center yourself? 💭✨

This morning, I took a moment to stretch, sip some herbal tea 🍵, listen to my audio Bible 🎧📖, and sit quietly in gratitude — reflecting on how each day brings a new chance to nurture, serve, and grow. 🌿

✨ Birth Work Fact:
Did you know a baby can recognize the sound of their mother’s voice while still in the womb? 💕
From as early as 25 weeks, they begin responding — a beautiful reminder that connection starts long before birth. 🤱🏾

💬 “A calm heart creates a peaceful space for life to enter.” 🌾

Wishing you a gentle, grounded start to your day — may it flow with love, purpose, and grace. 💚

🌞 Good Morning, Beautiful Souls! 🌞

How did you start your day today? ☕💭
Was it with peace, reflection, or maybe a moment of gratitude?

This morning, I started my day with a warm cup of coffee ☕, prayer 🙌🏿 and reading my four Bible chapters 📖 — it helps me to feel grounded and ready to serve others with a clear mind. 💚

✨ Birth Work Fact:
A baby’s heartbeat begins around 22 days after conception — a tiny rhythm that reminds us just how sacred and miraculous life truly is. 💓

💬 “When we tend to the roots, the whole garden flourishes.” 🌱

Wishing you a day filled with purpose, light, and love.
