Happy International Day of Midwives! I am so blessed to call myself a MIDWIFE, blessed by all the midwives I know and work with, and grateful to all the midwives out there caring for women every day. Everyone Deserves a Midwife. Midwives Save Lives. Midwives Are the Future. 💜

Two weeks ago I had the opportunity to volunteer at Haven for Moms with Taylor Smith () and Molly Nourmand (), providing supplies and services to LA mothers who were impacted by the wildfires. My hope was to give the women we served some reassurance and peace of mind as they begin to navigate their upturned lives; I talked about baby’s positioning, listened to heart tones, offered simple guidance and a sincere hug. That was enough, and yet I am honored to be recognized in this sweet article in by 🤍 Photo credits:

PREGNANT & DISPLACED BY THE FIRES? 🤰🏻
I am a Certified Nurse Midwife and I would like to offer a free prenatal visit to any pregnant woman displaced by the fires. I will come to wherever they are currently sheltering and provide a routine check in, including checking mother’s vitals and baby’s heartrate, and general guidance. My goal is to offer some support and reassurance in these stressful times. Please share, message and/or DM me ❤️‍🩹

**Disclaimer: This is not meant to replace routine prenatal care, but rather supplement it in a time of extreme stress.**

On this day 10 years ago I became a Certified Nurse Midwife. ✨ Ten years of finding that tiny heartbeat for the first time ❤️ (or not💔), of measuring bellies, of listening to mothers and fathers and siblings. Ten years of holding space, observing labor, filling birth tubs, giving encouragement. Ten years of welcoming tiny humans into the world & ten years of witnessing mothers become. Ten years of making umbilical cord hearts and giving placenta tours. Ten years of showing families that birth can be different. Ten years of joy, tears, holding my breath, saying the hard things, grieving, celebrating, sharing in so many tender moments.
It hasn’t always been perfect, but it has almost always been magical. I remain in awe of women’s bodies - their strength and resilience. I remain honored to walk with women and their families on this journey, blessed to be the one catching (or helping catch) their baby. I remain ever grateful for the many teachers, colleagues, mentors & friends who have been part of my journey as a midwife. ✨
