I am a Certified Nurse-Midwife. After being a direct-entry midwife and RN since 1985, I decided about 7 yrs. ago to go on for the Nurse-Midwifery degree. I have been working in the childbearing field in some capacity since 1980. I am also, available to teach skills classes to midwifery students. I participate in homebirth meet-up/support groups and peer review among/with other homebirth nurse-midwives in NC.

I absolutely thoroughly enjoy helping women/families/couples have the kind of empowering childbearing experience that they want. I am a Medicaid provider, take all Insurances, and have a cash discount.

I cover a radius of roughly 2 hours around Hickory, NC. My main office/home is near Hickory. I also have a small home/office up in Blowing Rock, and I'm looking for a small prenatal site just north of Charlotte, NC. Each of these small prenatal sites are w/in 45 min. of my main office. I try to be accomodating to my clients by having alternate prenatal sites in their area. Occasionally, I also use my assistant's home in the Western Morganton area as a prenatal site.
