Introducing you to another incredible Midwife from Gentle Beginnings Birth Center.

Melissa Matus, CPM, LM.

“…I began working as a doula here in DFW where most of my clients gave birth in the hospital.  However, a few clients used midwives at home or at free standing  birth centers and I began to witness a whole new world. I loved it!”

She goes on to say, 

“One fateful night, I was a doula for a birth at Gentle Beginnings and the rest is history. After that birth I left and began entertaining the thought of becoming a midwife. With the encouragement and support of my family and friends, I began my apprenticeship under Michele Massey CPM, LM in January 2016.”

Now with her own clients as a Midwife she says, 

“The midwifery care I provide is holistic. I look at the whole person, recognizing that the mind, body, and spirit are connected. I acknowledge that the mother and baby are a unit. The health and well being of one directly affects the other and I treat them as such from our first to our last appointment. I take pride in providing highly personalized care, and taking the time to get to know each of my clients.” 

What an incredible woman she is! We would love to hear about your time with Melissa as your Midwife or Student Midwife, so please leave her some love down below and tell her how special she is!

Sarah Clark

“In 2013 I witnessed my oldest niece being born at home and I immediately knew midwifery was a passion and dream that I wanted to pursue. There are times when God puts things in our hearts (dreams, aspirations, goals) and He gives them to us right away.
There are other times, and this seems to be the majority, when God puts things in our hearts and then makes us wait.”
•
Her godly wisdom that she shares below shows her heart for Christ so well, 
•
“I have found that during those times of waiting, God prepares us for His promise. During our waiting, He teaches us things. He grows our character, our faith, and our ability to do what we feel called to do. God takes us through a process, we just have to trust Him.”
•
She goes on to say, 
“What I couldn’t see early on is that God was preparing me for the opportunity. 
In 2017 I began working in the office at Gentle Beginnings, and in 2019 I started my apprenticeship under my sister-in-law, Michele Massey LM, CPM, as well as attended births with other midwives in the community. 
I believe in the human body and the power of informed choice.”

We LOVE Sarah and know many of you do too! If you want to send Sarah some love, please do so in the comments below! If you had Sarah at your birth, share your story with us too!

We continue introducing another amazing midwife from Gentle Beginnings Birth Center. I’d like you to meet, Cheryl Gaspard, CPM, LM.

“In 2007, I attended my first birth as a Midwifery Apprentice. In 2011, I became a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) through the North American Registry of Midwives (NARM) and a Licensed Midwife (LM) with the State of Texas. Prior to realizing my calling to midwifery, I obtained a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science from the University of North Texas and spent 5 joyful years teaching Junior High students with learning differences.” “…with my own pregnancies and births, I learned the value of excellent midwifery care and strive to provide that level of care to my clients. I feel incredibly privileged to be allowed to watch over such a sacred moment.”
She quotes this at the top of her professional bio and I think it’s a perfect ending to this caption,
“You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.”
—Christopher Robin (A.A. Milne) We love Cheryl and we know many of you have been blessed by her care! Please share your favorite memory with us and tag her so that she can see and feel the love she so deserves as well! Cheryl Gaspard

Today’s we are introducing you to another incredible Midwife from Gentle Beginnings Birth Center.

Donna Miller, LM.

“I first became interested in Midwifery while working as a Labor and Delivery nurse in a hospital in Irving. I loved my job but became convinced that things should and could be done differently to make birth a more positive experience for families. I felt strongly that laboring women should be treated with more respect and kindness as they worked to give birth, and that mothers should be allowed – even encouraged to bond with their babies in those wonderful first moments after birth.”

She goes onto say,
“I have had the privilege of being with families as they birth their babies for the past 43 years, attending approximately 3000 births.  I am a staff midwife at Gentle Beginnings Birth Center, doing both birth center and home births.   I have met many wonderful families and have seen women find their strength in giving birth completely naturally. What a joy it is to be involved with women as they labor, knowing that out of their hard work will come such satisfaction!”


43 years of midwifery and SO many blessed families! We would love to hear from you that have had Donna as your midwife over the years! Feel free to leave her some love down below
