"As a Midwife I enjoy helping families choose to have a safe birth at home. I believe that knowledge is a powerful tool when brought to the journey that is birth; I have seen over and over again how wonderful birth is when you are prepared and aware of the choices that lie ahead.

 

So whether you are just beginning your journey or are well along on the path I would be honored to walk beside you for a spell."

My Story

I first became interested in midwifery through the process of planning the homebirth of our first baby in 1994. I have been a very fortunate mother to have stayed at home with my young children, even homeschooling them. As a parent I have always been drawn to Holistic health and healing. My extensive studies include: BodyTalk (energy work), Hypnosis, Guided Meditation, Herbs, Aromatherapy, and Nutrition. 

​

We moved to Las Vegas, NV in 2005 where I started my journey to become a practicing homebirth Midwife. I became very involved with the established natural childbirth and parenting community and founded Well Rounded Momma, a women's wellness and maternity center in Las Vegas, Nevada.

 

I started out as a DONA certified Doula, labor tub technician, and Childbirth Educator supporting over 200 families in the Las Vegas area. In addition I apprenticed with two Certified Professional Midwives and have completed my own paperwork with the North American Registry of Midwives.

 

For the better part of this decade, I have made it my work to improve the birthing experience for all women in Las Vegas. I speak to medical boards and do in-service hospital training for nurses.
