Happy Black Midwives Day! 💚♥️🖤

I am honored to be part of this incredible community of wisdom keepers, healers, gatekeepers, and guides.

I pray that I continue to make my community proud—offering safe, competent, and culturally affirming care. This journey has been deeply fulfilling, and there’s nothing like supporting families during one of the most sacred moments of their lives.

There’s also nothing like coming together with my Sistars, planning for the future of the next generation of midwives. We are dedicated to uplifting, affirming, and supporting them so they can step into this work fully, knowing they belong.

In honor of has dropped the first episode of on Spotify. Tap in.

Continued blessings to my teachers and fellow midwives. We are important. We matter. We’ve been here, and we’re not going anywhere.

🤲🏾✨🫶🏾✨🤎

We did it Joe! 🤣😂🤪

✨Lots of firsts on Tuesday morning✨

First time managing from birth to immediate postpartum. I've done some of these things before but not from A-Z!

I guided Dad as he welcomed his baby Earth side.
Managed placenta delivery.
Assessed for tears.
Clamped cord for Dad to cut.
Did the tour of the placenta.
Newborn Exam
Vit K administration
Postpartum instructions
And lead the 24 hour postpartum home visit.

This Learning Midwife is extremely proud of herself!
Also, proud of my assist . She was on top of vitals, charting, and affirming Mama during labor.

A special shout out to for always cheering us on. And for creating an atmosphere in which we feel confident to spread our wings.

I also have to big up - assisting her has taught be a lot about Midwifin'. Thank you for providing opportunities for me to learn!

Patiently waiting for our next ancestor to make his grand entrance. 💫

Message: Be proud of all of your firsts - no matter how big or how small. Celebrate you!

For Learning Midwives just starting out, keep going! Stay the course! A year ago I couldn't of imagined being where I am today.

Adding them to my cart.

Virtual window shopping
At one point I almost purchased them but.....
Spirit told me.....wait, don't buy them yet.
Glad I listened!
We received a blessing from an anonymous donor today.

Yet another confirmation!
I am right where I need to be!

Message: Listen. Be obedient. Your folks got you covered!

Big up ! 💪🏾

My first experience as a Birth Assistant was with Das, and she’s believed in me since day one.
From the very start of my Midwifery journey, she's been there, instrumental every step of the way.

I love doing births with her—we just get each other. We've been doing this for a lil minute now, and I can anticipate what she needs like clockwork.
We truly are the dream team!

That's my friend, a big-time Midwife licensed in Maryland and Virginia!

Just two girls from the Bronx, living and walking in our calling. ✨

Message: Keep the skills sharp. Stay ready so you don't have to get ready.

What a year! 🥳

Congrats and thank you for hearing, listening, and answering the call to support families and learning midwives in Virginia!

Thank you for seeing and executing the (your) vision so eloquently.
Thank you for not giving up when obstacles came your way.
You are the epitome of standing on business!

The cottage is exactly what the community needs.
The cottage is exactly what I need.
Being here, walking alongside you is nothing short of amazing.

Thank you for your pearls of wisdom.
Your belief in me.
Thank you for pushing me.
Thank you for the soft pats on the back during births letting me (us) know it's all you and you got this.
No four handed catches, just straight confidence in us.
It means so much!

This is the way midwifery should be.
I am blessed to have such a powerful walking example guiding me.

here's to many more! 🥂

Message: You create your own reality. See it, write it down, and develop a solid plan to bring it (whatever it is) to fruition. You can do it! Take the first step.

Another powerful Saturday at the cottage for our Free Midwifery for the People offering. This month, Birthworker from the DMV pulled up!

We provided well-woman care and equipped her with midwifery resources to uplift the families she supports in PG County and NOVA.

As usual the vibes were high!✨
