This week at WHA Midwives, we’re celebrating the strength, compassion, and teamwork that define our profession — and the wonderful people who make this care possible.

This season, we’re excited to welcome a few experienced and beloved colleagues to our team, so that we may continue to care for you as we care for ourselves. They are not only seasoned providers, but also nursing and midwifery faculty, as well as longtime friends.

Together, our team is well equipped to continue providing relationship-based, thoughtful, and deeply personal care — all while maintaining a healthy work-life balance.

We look forward to introducing you to these wonderful humans!

Here’s to midwives caring for families — and for each other. 💜

Happy Midwifery Week!

As the definitive resource for menopause and other midlife healthcare issues, developed a competency examination in 2002 to set the standards for menopause practice and assist patients in locating clinicians who could provide optimal menopause-related healthcare. Those who pass the examination earn the credential The Menopause Society Certified Practitioner (MSCP).

Congratulations to WHA’s own Laura Sundstrom, CNM, FACNM and now MSCP(!) on earning this credential.

In addition to Laura, there are many providers ready and willing to talk all things and with you! Thank you, as always, for choosing us for your care. 💜

This past December marked 20 (!) years of WHA Midwives. Founded in 2024, by Linda Lisk and the late Debbie Cibelli, WHA became one of the only independent, midwifery-owned private practices in the state. When we opened in 2004, WHA grew entirely by word of mouth. Patients and families gave us their trust, and the practice flourished. We have followed patients from their teenage years, through childbearing, and into menopause. We have had the joy of caring for generations of the same families, delivering the babies of babies we delivered!

Today, February 7th, marks the 8th year anniversary of Debbie’s passing. Though she is no longer with us, her vision and discipline of midwifery practice will always be the foundation and inspiration for WHA Midwives. As we look to the future, we carry Debbie’s spirit with us every step of the way.

To our patients, our families, our staff, the entire labor and birth floor, our physician colleagues, our community partners, our beloved WHA Alumni, and especially to Debbie, THANK YOU. We are so grateful, honored and humbled to get to do the work we love to do, caring for others the way we would want to be care for ourselves. 💜

Happy National MIdwifery Week 2024 from us at WHA Midwives!

The American College of Nurse Midwives has named this year’s theme: “Midwives Looking to the Future.” Rigorous scientific evidence demonstrates that care provided by midwives improves birth outcomes and patient experiences. The evidence also supports the importance of the integration and expansion of midwifery to the improvement of health outcomes across states and nations. The profession of midwifery is rooted in the past but essential to the future.

We at WHA are happy to part of your past, present and future!
