I Am Not A Nurse

I don't work under hospital policy. I didn't train in a system built on pharmaceuticals, charting software, and shift rotations. I trained in birth. In instinct. In herbs. In what your body already knows how to do.

And while I deeply respect many nurses (and even have some in my family), I walk a different path. One that leads through homes, not hallways. One that listens to your story first- not your blood pressure. One that remembers how our grandmothers did it before machines, forms, and fear took over.

So what am I?

I'm a midwife. A holistic practitioner. A student of ancient wisdom. A woman called to serve families on their sacred journey through birth and healing.

I don't clock in, I show up. I don't diagnose, I observe. I don't override your intuition, I help you hear it again.

Why does this matter?

Because there are some who believe that traditional birth attendance is nursing. There's a big difference. I've had the pleasure of speaking with many families. In the years of serving families I have heard mothers detail stress of their birth, their pregnancies, their postpartum being hell. And it started with the medical industrial complex. They have called on me hoping and PRAYING that I am not standing like the rest of them. They desire to have a hands off, intuition led pregnancy journey that includes them and their spouse in all the decision making processes.

These families have told me that they "under no circumstances ever want a medical provider or to go to the hospital" While I cannot guarantee anything I do let them know I am not a medical provider and I am proud of that.

I don't want to offer nursing or medical treatment. I am called by God Himself to offer the alternative. A path of sovereignty, education, prayer, and preparation that honors your design. I walk beside you, not above you. I am your guide, not your manager.

My practice isn't sterile- it's sacred. My knowledge isn't coded by institutions- It's carried in my hands, my heart, and my lived experience. I am not here to "save" you. I am here to remind you: you are capable. You are strong, God is with you, God is giving you wisdom and discernment.

To the families who come to me...

You aren't looking for a nurse.

You are looking for something ancient, whole, and holy.

And that's exactly what you'll find here.
