Licensed in the state of Wisconsin, I am a Certified Professional Midwife and achieved my midwifery certification and licensure through didactic education and multiple apprenticeships.  I received MEAC (Midwifery Education Accreditation Council) accreditation through Southwest Wisconsin Technical College.

Continuing education and Certifications includes:

• • American Heart Association in Basic Life Support (BLS)
  • American Heart Association and American Academy of Pediatrics in neonatal resuscitation (AHA/AAP/NRP)
  • Breech Without Borders
  • BEST (Birth Emergency Skills Training)
  • Certified Body Ready Method (BRM) Pro.

I am a wife and homeschooling mother of 10 children who give me great joy. With my own birth experiences, I have given birth in many settings including a military hospital, large hospital, small hospital, and home. Through my own birthing journey and walking through over 300 birth experiences with many other women, I continue to be amazed at the miracle of birth. It is my deep desire to see women embrace the joy of natural childbirth.
