A midwife is a licensed provider who offers complete care throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period for low-risk pregnancies. Midwives combine clinical knowledge with a respect for the natural birth process, supporting both the physical and emotional needs of mother and baby through attentive, personalized medical care. Most midwives work outside of hospital settings.

A doula offers continuous emotional, physical, and informational support during pregnancy and birth. While not a medical provider, a doula helps create a calm, comforting space so you feel fully cared for throughout your experience. A doula can be present in any birth environment, in or out of the hospital, with low-risk or high-risk pregnancies.

Each role plays a special part in surrounding you with support and advocacy as you bring your baby into the world.

Most women with low-risk pregnancies are great candidates for out-of-hospital birth. If you're free from major medical complications, you are likely a great candidate for midwifery care.

Even with complications, out-of-hospital birth is still sometimes an option. Your consultation is important for this reason. During this time, we'll discuss your health history, previous pregnancies, and your vision for welcoming your baby. Together, we'll decide what type of care feels right for you.

Prenatal visits are relaxed and focused entirely on you and your growing baby. We’ll spend time on your health and your baby’s well-being, but also spend time discussing nutrition, emotions, and how to prepare your mind and body for birth. Each visit is a chance to build trust and help you feel confident and supported every step of the way. You can expect to spend 30-60 minutes at your appointment, depending on your gestation.

When your birth comes, you can expect calm, continuous care from a licensed midwife and trusted birth assistant. We’ll support you in finding your rhythm while keeping a watchful eye on both you and your baby’s safety. Our role is to protect your space and help your birth unfold naturally, gently, and peacefully.

As a doula, I can attend births wherever you feel most comfortable. My role in these settings is to offer emotional and physical support, helping you navigate your birth experience with confidence.

As a licensed midwife, I provide complete prenatal, birth, and postpartum care for clients planning home births.

Your consultation is a cost-free, welcoming conversation designed to help us get to know one another. We’ll talk about your pregnancy, your health history, your hopes for birth, and what type of care feels most supportive for you and your family. I’ll explain how my services work and answer any questions you may have about midwifery or doula care.

It’s also a time for you to feel whether I’m the right fit for your birth team. For your convenience, I offer in-person or digital consultations. Many families leave their consultation feeling informed and inspired about their journey ahead. 

It’s best to reach out early, ideally in your first or early second trimester, so we have time to build a strong connection and create a care plan that truly reflects your needs and wishes.

However, it’s never too late to begin. Even if you’re farther along, we can quickly come together to ensure you feel confident and well cared for. Whether you’re just beginning your journey or searching for different options, my goal is to offer gentle, continuous support so you can look forward to your birth with peace and trust.

I do attend water births, and I truly love supporting families who choose this peaceful way to welcome their babies. In fact, I personally experienced a water birth during my second labor and found it to be a deeply soothing and therapeutic experience.

While I don’t provide a birth pool for client use, birth pools are easy to obtain and can be purchased new online for around $200–$400, or gently used for about $50–$150. I also strongly encourage a disposable liner (around $50) to make cleanup easier. I’m happy to help guide you through selecting and setting up your birth pool so that your water birth experience feels convenient and serene.

Yes, I offer flexible payment options to make midwifery care more accessible. You're welcome to pay on your own schedule, as long as your balance is paid in full by your due-date. Midwifery clients who complete payment by 36 weeks of gestation receive a $200 discount as a thank-you for prompt payment. I accept payment in the form of cash, check, or electronic payment.

Unfortunately, I do not accept insurance. At your six-week postpartum visit, I can create a superbill for you to share with your insurance representative if you’d like to request reimbursement. Certain prompts and tricks can increase your chances of receiving reimbursement, and I will share these with you, but reimbursement varies from policy to policy. SoonerCare does not offer reimbursements. I hope that one day, all families will have equal access to coverage for the birth options they choose.

I do work with breech, VBAC, and twin pregnancies, but each is considered on a case-by-case basis. During your consultation, we’ll take time to review your health history, discuss any risks, and determine together whether your circumstances are a good fit for my care. My goal is always to support safe and well-informed birth experiences.
