Hi there! I’m Maureen, a Certified Professional Midwife in West Virginia. Let’s do a quick reintroduction!
A CPM is a type of midwife specifically trained for out-of-hospital births, meaning those that occur at home or in a birth center. There are just a handful of CPMs in WV and I’m so proud to be one of them! I recently became a certified preceptor as well, and will be integrating students into my practice in 2026. I’ve caught over 150 babies and can’t wait to keep helping more families grow!
I am also a Certified Lactation Counselor. I gained a ton of lactation support experience working at Busy Mom’s Healthcare in Morgantown, WV and am so grateful I had the chance to help so many people there! I expanded my lactation knowledge further when Heather ONeal, CNM and I created the Milk Minute Podcast. That project challenged us to continue our education each week!
In 2024 I became a Spinning Babies® Aware Practitioner and now offer Spinning Babies® techniques integrated into my midwifery practice and as a stand alone service.
I’m a mother to two amazing kids, I homeschool, and I have a farm in Randolph County about 30 minutes away from my office in Elkins. You can find me singing in the Augusta community choir, hanging out at Tip Top, and hiking in the National Forest!
