Barefoot Midwifery

05/24/2026

✨Hi, I’m AndI, and I’m a midwife that doesn’t attend births.

Not because I don’t love witnessing and supporting badass women in delivering their babies at home, but because I believe midwives can support families in many other ways in addition to attending their births.

Midwives have always been the OG healers and medicine women. The go-to gal with the remedy for whatever ails you. They’re great listeners, have in-depth knowledge of the human body, and have a passion to care for and help others.

Barefoot Midwifery doesn’t offer birth services but we do offer lots of options for families and women desiring more intentional, grounded and healing experiences from preconception to years after the postpartum period.

You don’t have to give birth with a midwife to heal with one.✨

This was me on Mother’s Day, 4 years ago.

I had been up all night at a wild home birth where; I had to get mom out of the tub due to low fetal heart tones, pulled baby out, managed a massive hemorrhage, inspected the craziest placenta I had ever seen, sutured a perineum solo with a camping headlamp bc my assistant got called to another birth, then baby’s SpO2 level started to look like s**t so I put baby on O2 and transferred mom and baby to the ER.

I went home and sobbed in bed bc I was also grieving the death of a dear friend who had lost her battle w cancer, leaving two young daughters behind, only 2 months earlier.

I pushed that all down and was as present as I could be with my kids and family. Celebrating a day that’s supposed to revolve around motherhood. Looking at this photo you would have no idea what I was experiencing only 8 hrs earlier.

Moms are badass.
Midwives are badass.
Women are badass.

We make the world go round.

Happy Mother’s Day to all the women in the world, no matter if their babies are on the other side or they’re on the other side themselves. To all the mamas that show up every day even when it’s super hard-You’re amazing.

Pretty easy to tell a midwife’s kid😂

This was my 4 year old at the time, checking out one of the most complex placentas I had ever helped deliver.

In spirit of International Day of the Midwife, here are some shots of me performing my calling. Next to being a mother, being a midwife has been the most beautiful, challenging, rewarding and magickal role I’ve ever played.

Even though I currently don’t attend births, I’m proud to say I’m still helping families in every other way a midwife can. Midwives are so much more than just birth attendants and the world needs more of them.💜
