Hi there. A bit about me, I am a mom of two teens, a caretaker of several tens of plants, a caretaker to one cozy dog, one crazy dog, and a wife. I enjoy crocheting, thrifting, reading, roller-skating, and biking.

My journey into birth work, as many other midwives began with my own experiences. During my first pregnancy, I quite literally stumbled across Ina May Gaskin's book, "Guide to Childbirth and Labor" and it truly resonated with me. At that point, I was twenty-nine weeks pregnant with my first child and had already started care with an OB. I felt uncomfortable making a switch so late in my pregnancy. Little did I know, how smart it is to make those changes, even later in care. I had a run-of-the-mill hospital birth, nothing horrible, nothing spectacular.

My second child came quickly on the heels of my first, and I knew I wanted a different kind of care and birth. I loved the prenatal care that I received and I felt like it gave me a completely different set of tools and understanding about health care and my body. I felt like midwifery should be more accessible. I had a very fast and furious birth. After that, I knew that midwifery was the right place for me. I waited until my kiddos were older and then began pursuing midwifery. I started as a birth assistant, then I applied to the Florida Traditional School of Midwifery.

I have been a Licensed Midwife and Certified Professional Midwife since 2017. I added Certified Lactation Professional to my resume four years ago. I have a passion for information and the shared decision-making model of care. I enjoy giving my clients the information and watching them use that information to make their own choices. I may have been called a second-hand Oxytocin junkie once or twice. After many years working for wonderful birth centers I am opting to slow things down and practice what I preach, mindful movement, presence, and healthful eating. I can't wait to meet you and your family!

Humble greetings! I am Talena L. Jones, a second-year student Midwife. I currently attend the Florida Traditional School of Midwifery in Gainesville, FL. I have one husband (lol), one biological daughter, three bonus daughters, seven grandchildren, one angel granddaughter, and one grandog. I have been a certified Labor & Delivery, Postpartum, and Death Doula since 2019 with NABD. I've always admired all things birth, with a special and dedicated interest in the birthing person. My faith and passion for serving women led me to birth work. The disproportionate negative outcomes for women of color are what will keep me in the birth space. I desire change and there is no better way to see the change than being a part of the change. I look forward to serving and supporting you in your birth journey!

Hi, I’m Brienne Aries, a student midwife from Heritage School of Midwifery. My journey into birth work is grounded in a deep passion for supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. I began as a certified birth doula, providing compassionate, evidence-based care and helping families feel informed, empowered, and supported every step of the way.

I’m also a mom to three children and one bonus son. Motherhood has shaped my heart and strengthened my commitment to this work. I believe in honoring the physiologic process of birth, trusting the wisdom of the body, and creating a calm, respectful space where families feel seen, heard, and empowered.

I am currently training under experienced midwives, and I am grateful for each opportunity to learn, grow, and serve. I look forward to becoming a licensed midwife and continuing to walk alongside families during one of life’s most sacred transitions. goes here

All of our wonderful birth assistants attend regular trainings and are NRP certified.
