✨ Did you know midwives can order and interpret your prenatal labs?🩸From routine blood counts & first-trimester genetic to glucose & GBS screening— and yes, we can even draw your labs right at home for an stress-free experience.

⁉️ Fun fact: not all prenatal tests are required. Many are strongly recommended because they give us helpful insights into you and your baby’s health, but most remain optional and based on informed choice. (We’ll dive deeper into that in another post! 😜)

Your midwife is here to walk you through your options, share resources, discuss risks and benefits, and support informed decision-making every step of the way. 💛

🗓️ When was your last PAP smear?

Let’s be real—Pap smears aren’t exactly anyone’s favorite appointment. They can be uncomfortable and a little awkward, but they are so important for your long-term reproductive health.

🔬🧪 A Pap smear is a screening that collects cells from the cervix to check for precancerous or cancerous changes. Detecting early changes in cervical cells allows timely care and may reduce cancer risk.

Current CDC/ACOG guidelines (for people with no history of abnormal Pap results, abnormal HPV, cervical cancer, HIV, or immune suppression) recommend:
✅ Ages 21–29: Every 3 years
✅ Ages 30–65: Every 5 years

As midwives, our care goes far beyond pregnancy and birth. We provide comprehensive well-woman (person) care, including Pap smears, breast exams, and reproductive health support. Imagine receiving this care in the comfort of your own home—your visit can be more than just a “procedure”. It’s an opportunity to discuss menstrual cycles, hormones, fertility, and overall wellness.

📅 If you’re due for your Pap smear, this is your reminder!
💌 Reach out to schedule your well-woman (person) exam with your midwife.

This is 39! ✨

What a decade it has been. I’ve spent my entire 30s serving women & families—work that has been so fulfilling, humbling, and transformative. I never grew up knowing exactly what I wanted to do, but this journey has led me right where I belong. I’ve learned so much about women, about life, and about myself—my strengths, my limits, and everything in between.

Here’s to my last trip around the sun in my 30s 🥂 Excited to see what my 40s have in store- embracing the white hair, wrinkles, backaches and all! 🫣😜🎉

✨ I’m back on call & ready to welcome all the beautiful end-of-summer & fall babies earth-side! ✨

Prioritizing time off-call from birth work is essential — it gives me the chance to enjoy uninterrupted family time, step away from my phone (well, mostly), & recharge so I can continue showing up as the midwife you deserve!

After some much-needed time off to rest, recharge, & celebrate my parents’ 50th anniversary with my family (so special!), my cup is full & my heart is ready for all the bellies & babies!

Now booking:
📆 A few spots left for Fall/Winter 2025
📆 Now accepting 2026 home birth clients

There are moments when I pause and think, Is this really my “job”?

Because midwifery is so much more than work—it’s a calling. It’s not something I clock in and out of. It’s woven into who I am—heart, mind, body, and soul.

Supporting families through pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and even loss is sacred. It’s intimate, raw, transformative. And every time I’m invited into that space, I feel deeply honored.

Each mother, each baby, each family I serve stays with me. They become a part of my story, just as I briefly become a part of theirs.

When I see photos or videos of myself “working,” I’m always struck by the same thought: What an incredible gift it is to do this—to witness life beginning, to hold space, to serve with love.

Thank you thank you thank you!
