This is a story of God faithfulness.

2011- I graduated nursing school with my BSN only to not be able to get a job as a new grad.

2011-2013- worked in a rural hospital 2.5 hours from my home just to gain experience and then hopped to become a cardiac nurse simply so I could stop driving. I quickly realised I have never agreed with the bandaid approach to healthcare- I want root cause.

2014- I had my oldest and was so done with the politics of nursing. I had a doula with him at his homebirth.

2016- I decided I would love to be a doula and could do it while staying home with my kids.

2019- 2020- A position opened at a birth center to learn birth assisting as an RN- I was ecstatic as it would be a chance to use my clinical brain in an out of hospital setting.

2020- was unfairly fired for not getting jabbed after being assured my job was intact regardless.

2022- The Lord opened the door to a much better birth center situation where I learned so much about prenatals and learned from some amazing midwives. I also started attending homebirths with some wonderful midwives! . Started my PEP Process to become a homebirth midwife

2023- Had my fifth and took a much needed break.

2024/25 The icing on the cake the Lord opened the opportunity for me to work alongside my dear friend, and mentor, and doula (turned midwife) who had been at all of my births. I was able to do all my primary experience with her and it has taught me the heart of midwifery. .on.the.inside life.on.the.inside

August 21,2025- submitted all my phase 3 paperwork and am awaiting a testing date.

There were so many times in this story I wanted to quit or give up. Five kids, plus homeschooling- being unfairly fired. So many things that made no sense- and yet when I look back- the Lord was in every single detail and I literally couldn’t imagine it being any better than now!

Once I finish my test I will go into partnership with my dear friend, in order to maintain balance in our lives and our midwifery practice.

The Lord is so so faithful- praise Him! And to an amazing husband who I literally could not do this without.

When clients send me the sweets notes with the most beautiful photos it is the biggest encouragement to me!

From mama:

“This squishy man is almost 6 months old- was reminiscing through these pictures feeling so grateful for your calming presence and willingness to provide a hands on “homeschool” lesson to the kiddos. You rock and you’re going to make an amazing midwife!”

Cue all the happy tears! What a gift it is to walk alongside families in one of the most sacred experiences of their lives! And shout out to the herb guru, preceptor extraordinaire !

So so grateful!

Dr. Hall is an incredible OB who has worked in obstetrics for over 49 years. He is a pioneer in vaginal birth and has delivered over 400 breech-babies with no adverse outcomes. He is trying to help OBs understand that birth is normal, and all we need to do is support it. Breech is a variation of normal but physicians are no longer trained in how to deliver a breech baby- we have a real problem with families who need options and not being able to access care. I am so grateful to have learned from Dr. Hall! OB supporting midwives- a true gift!

Why are we ranked 35th globally? It's time to acknowledge that we should be achieving more. Midwives play a vital role in helping lower these statistics.

I started this process 2 1/2 years ago and I’m finally submitting phase 1 & 2- Lord willing I’ll finish three this coming year. I am so grateful for all the preceptors who have walked alongside me thus far. Sometimes I think God is crazy- me- a midwife? But He keeps opening doors and I keep walking. It’s an absolute honor and privilege. I still have a ways to go- but am so excited to be a primary student midwife!
