From our Founder - My love for serving women in their childbearing years started at my little sisters birth at home in 2013. I was present for my moms prenatal appointments and her birth, in that a spark was kindling! Nine months later, we approached her midwife and asked if there were books or courses she could recommend for me to do just to get my toes wet! She saw something in me and jumped straight into years of teaching me, she taught me many skills and passed so much wisdom down to me! She was so generous with her time and wisdom; I spent 8 years with her and her families. Thank you to those women and their families for welcoming me into their stories and being patient with me as I learned. Some women I got to serve through 4 pregnancies!

My heart for birth and women has been seen through years of sitting at their feet serving them during their birthing years. I am active in pursuing continuing education whether through personal deeper study, breech and twins training, resolving shoulder dystocia's, Postpartum Mother Roasting, CPR/NRP training, and much more. All for the purpose of guiding and educating my private ministry families, so this women's wisdom can continue. Our path of walking together is wide and covers many areas, because our birth journeys are only the tip of the iceberg of what we’re being invited into! I am first and foremost a tool for the hands of our Creator. I am not a licensed midwife or certified professional midwife, I am not a doctor, nurse, nurse-midwife, or medical provider.  I am a traditional, radical woman that walks with women. Over the years I have spent time travelling serving families and working alongside traditional midwives across the country in my "downtime" ;)

My passion for freedom of birth choices and First Amendment rights is also seen through my own unassisted pregnancy and birth with my daughter in 2022 - to read my birth story and watch it (!) head to my Instagram, @birthcultivated
