All of our summer rays of sunshine have arrived and our hearts are so full of these sweet babies and their families.
11 of these families were repeat families, and it is such a beautiful privilege to watch as the babies grow and become siblings, and the mamas and daddies grow as parents.
Thank you for allowing us to come along on your journeys!

As we say good bye and congratulations to past students who graduate, Resolve Birth Services welcomes in a new student to continue the tradition of midwifery. Please help us welcome Melissa Logue!!

With 20 years of experience serving women and families as a birth doula, childbirth educator and breastfeeding counselor, Melissa is passionate about providing compassionate, family-centered care through pregnancy, birth and the postpartum season. As a student midwife, she is continuing to deepen her knowledge and skills in supporting mothers through informed, personalized care and empowering women to approach birth with confidence.

Melissa’s passion for childbirth is rooted not only in professional experience, but also in personal experience as the mother of eight children, all born at home, and grandmother of four. These experiences have given her a deep appreciation for the beauty and strength of motherhood and the importance of compassionate support during every stage of the childbearing journey.

In addition to her work in birth and women’s care, Melissa serves alongside her husband in ministry as a pastor’s wife and enjoys encouraging and teaching women within her church community, including leading a ladies Sunday school class and hosting lady fellowships. Outside of ministry and birth work, she enjoys teaching piano, reading, spending cherished time with her family and serving others.

All of the Spring buds have blossomed and we are so enthralled with these babies and families!
From surprisingly quick first time births to victorious VBACs, water births to hospital births, these babies and their families have showed us that wisdom, perseverance and surrender can be the most beautiful thing in the world.
Welcome, sweet babies!

The Guardian has done a year-long investigative reporting piece on free-birthing and the harms done by this risky choice. But they’ve failed to delve into the underlying causes of why women are choosing to birth outside of the system. A system where induction and surgical birth has become so normalized, we are losing the ability to know normal physiological birth. Ask more questions. Seek more options.

October 15 is pregnancy and infant loss awareness day. Let us remember all babies born sleeping, those we have carried but never met, those we have held but could not take home, and those who came home but could not stay.
I remember your babies, dear ones, and I remember you. ❤️
