When I started my Home Birth practice, my mom asked me what she could do to support me.
That is her work.
Every bag for your Home Birth kit is handmade by my mother from African fabric made in Africa.
I am honoring my mom and all mothers through this song :
MOUSSOLOU — A SONG FOR WOMANHOOD 🌍❤️

“Moussolou” by the legendary Malian artist Salif Keïta .
Moussolou means “women.” In this deeply moving tribute, Salif honors the strength, sacrifice, patience, and resilience of women — especially mothers. He reflects on the woman who nurtures us, raises us, teaches us, and helps shape the people we become.

And there is something especially powerful about this song when we think about womanhood and birth.
I witness women discovering strength they didn’t know they possessed. I witness mothers becoming transformed through birth. I witness the ancient connection between a woman, her body, her baby, her mother, and the village surrounding her.

Moussolou reminds us to honor the woman.

Not only when she becomes a mother.
Not only when she gives birth.
But throughout every season of her life.
Thank you to all the women that have shaped me and to all the one that are trusting me to walk alongside them.
Moussolou. ❤️

👶🏾👶🏾 TWICE THE LOVE. TWICE THE TEAM.

Twin pregnancy is a beautiful journey, but it also deserves thoughtful, collaborative care. From midwives and OB/GYNs to maternal-fetal medicine specialists, ultrasound teams, pediatric providers, and lactation support—each member brings an important piece to the table.

For me, collaborative care means knowing when to consult, when to refer, and when to work together so that mom and both babies receive the safest, most individualized care possible. 🤝🏾

I am so glad to be supporting this twin Mom in her choice of care in helping on building the right village around her. Today I got to meet her care team with Maternal Fetal Medicine and discuss her plan of care.

What if seeing more home births could change the way we see birth? 🧡

To every family who has trusted me with their care for your pregnancy and your birth and allowed me to share your beautiful birth photos—thank you. Your stories matter.

When we share the beauty, strength, and normalcy of home birth, we help other low-risk families see that they have choices when it comes to where and how they welcome their babies.

Every photo helps normalize.
Every story helps educate.
Every birth helps inspire. 🧡
As a Midwife, who has worked many years in fast pace hospital settings, I truly believe that homebirth is a very safe route for low risk pregnancies.

Thank you for letting me share your moments ,your strength and for helping me grow the village of families who believe in informed, empowered birth.

I had finally the pleasure to meet Sarah during the performance of a newborn hearing screen at home. she is so wonderful.
Sarah Schmidt AuD, CCC-A, CMMI
Newborn hearing screening is a simple, painless test that helps identify hearing loss early—often before parents notice any signs.
Early detection and support can make a big difference in a baby’s speech, language, learning, and development.
As your midwife, my care doesn’t stop after your birth.
Helping you navigate through the postpartum phase is a very important part of your care.

Homeopathy is often used as a gentle, complementary approach during pregnancy to support overall comfort and well-being. Some people use homeopathic remedies for common pregnancy concerns such as nausea, fatigue, digestive discomfort, sleep difficulties, and emotional stress. Many families appreciate homeopathy as a natural approach that can be incorporated alongside their regular prenatal care.
