Birth Services
"A midwife must tactfully use her ‘Mother Wit’ to empower the parents and strive to maintain harmony within the laboring environment; by tuning into her instincts which will enable her to conduct the natural rhythm of labor and the flow of positive energy."
Traditional Midwifery
"Envision birthing your baby in the warmth and comfort of your own home, surrounded by your loved-ones. As you navigate the journey of labor, you're free to move about your home, nourish your body with food from your own kitchen, and find relaxation in the familiarity of your own shower. After welcoming your baby, you can cherish the precious moments that follow, resting in the comfort of your own bed with your little one by your side.
Traditional Midwives a.k.a Birth Attendants, were once the primary care takers for expectant families and provided a more intimate model of care. Their indigenous practices predate modern medicine by several millennia. In the time-honored tradition of midwifery, knowledge and wisdom were passed down through generations of women, from experienced mentors to devoted apprentices. This intimate and immersive approach allowed traditional midwives to acquire a profound understanding of the art of caring for women and newborns, encompassing not only physical needs but also emotional and spiritual well-being.
Through this apprenticeship model, midwives gained a deep respect for the sacred bond between mother and child, and the importance of treating each individual with dignity and compassion. Women and babies received holistic care that honored their unique experiences and nurtured their overall health, which encourages a sense of trust, comfort, and empowerment.
As a Traditional Midwife, I offer a unique and personalized approach to care, blending the wisdom of indigenous teachings with the modern practices. My comprehensive, holistic support includes prenatal, birth, and postpartum care, all within the peaceful and intimate setting of your own home.
