Happy Father’s Day

Raising children is our gratest gift and highest responsibility. It’s scared work. To me, fatherhood is the practice and embodiment of love. The ability to be truly present for your family in every season of life. From the moment you know you have a little one on the way to your final breath.

I see so much love in my practice, so many beautiful, present dads, showing up to do the big and important work of fatherhood. The world, and your family, are brighter because of you.

Both of my students have their own uniquely beautiful background that brought them to midwifery. I want to take a moment and let each of them introduce themselves.

Bailey Peterson

I am a proud mama to three wonderful children, ages 3, 6, and 8. My Journey into motherhood sparked a deep love for pregnancy and birth, beginning the moment I discovered I was expecting my first baby.

After experiencing the home birth of my dreams with my third baby, I felt a clear calling and took the leap into midwifery school. I believe that pregnancy and birth are among life’s most sacred and natural experiences - and that every woman deserves compassionate, respectful, and individualized care. My greatest prayer is to bring light, love, and unwavering support to every family I serve.

When I am not immersed in all things birth and pregnancy, I prioritize my own health and wellness, staying active and grounded. I find joy in gardening with my husband, soaking up the sunshine by the lake, and cherishing time with my beautiful family. I am immensely grateful to be a full time mother, wife, and student midwife.

Midwifery Students.

Each one, teach one. This is our sacred duty. It’s how midwifery is passed down, not by books, not by tests, you have to learn through observing, listening, and hands on mentorship.

I have two incredible students in my practice, Bailey Peterson and Tatiana Priestley. They will be in my practice for the next couple of years. For those of you who have already had them as part of your birth team you know how dedicated they are to learning both the art and science of midwifery.

I have found a lot of sweetness and joy in sharing what being a midwife means to me. Teaching the next generation of midwives is also a lot of work, an honor and a huge responsibility. The lives of mothers and babies will be in their hands one day. When they leave my practice my prayer is that they feel grounded and confident in their skills. I also want them to always serve with a humble heart.

I believe that how we birth matters. How we are born matters. Who we have supporting pregnant women and families matters. The world needs more midwives.

Happy Mother’s Day

There is a thing with some midwives not wanting to take first time mamas, that they are more work, more texts, more hand holding , longer labors, harder pushing, transfer more often. This Mother’s Day I want to celebrate all those incredible first time mamas. First time mamas hold a special place in my heart. They make me a better midwife. They make me slow down and go back to basics. Every part of their experience is new and their questions reflect a desire to learn and be the best mothers for their babies. It is humbling to witness as each of them takes these beautiful and brave steps into the unknown. I feel so blessed to be there as a family starts to grow.

Midwives Day 🙌🏽💛

Being with women. Being with babies. Being with families.

It is my calling. Deep in my bones. In every breath and exhale. I feel honored and blessed to serve and bare witness to the most sacred moments in life.

When you are born at 35 weeks and your WHOLE birth plan changes, but it’s okay because you have the best mom and the best dad. You have an amazing auntie who fiercely protected your birth space and an incredible grandma who caught every hard and beautiful moment of your journey on film. James, you are so loved, welcome to this wild world.

In 2024 fifty six babies came into the world to families that were cared for in my practice.

It was beautiful to witness as you became mothers, fathers, families. I saw each of you stretch, grow, and surrender, allowing the story of your pregnancy and birth to unfold. I witnessed so much love, deep endless love for the babies you got to hold and the families you created.

May we all walk into this New Year with hearts full of love and continued wonder at the miracle that is pregnancy and birth.

Midwifery is community based care. It’s about being connected to each other. It’s about celebrating our growing families and holding each other up when we suffer heartbreaking losses. One of our families has lost their son and needs to be surrounded by our prayers, our love, and our support.

The GoFundMe has not been updated but Jiana and Jonathan have given me permission to share some of their story.

Their daughter, Taylor, was born on their homestead in 2021. We kept in touch after their last postpartum appointment, sending photos and little life updates. It was definitely a happy day when they let me know they were expecting again.

At their first appointment we listened to baby’s strong and perfect heart as big sis Taylor ran around the office. It is always the sweetest reunion to midwife for a family for the second time.

At their 20 week anatomy scan however Jiana and Jonathan were given heartbreaking news. They were told that their unborn babe had a rare but severe condition, non-immune fetal hydrops. From a place of hope and deep surrender to let this baby’s story unfold they transferred care to UC Davis.

At just over 28 weeks Jiana went into spontaneous labor and gave birth to her beautiful son. Tayden Jian Hong was born on 12/5/2024 and quickly found his way into the arms of angels.

His memory will continue to live in the hearts of everyone who reads and shares his story.

Please contribute what you can so Jiana, Jonathan, and Taylor have the time and space to grieve the loss of Tayden. I have linked the GoFundMe at the top of my page 🙌🏽🩵
