Beloved Birth Midwifery – Litchfield Park, Arizona

As I reflect on 2025, my heart is filled with deep gratitude and awe. Every year, I am reminded what an honor it is to walk alongside families during one of the most sacred moments of their lives. This year was no exception—it was a beautiful testament to the power of physiological birth, trust, and the peace that comes from birthing at home.

In 2025, the babies welcomed through Beloved Birth Midwifery were almost evenly split, with 52% boys and 48% girls joining our community. Birth preferences were beautifully balanced as well, with 50% land births and 50% water births, reflecting how intuitively each mother chose the environment that felt right for her labor.

The majority of the families I supported were experienced mothers, with 80% multiparous women and 20% first-time mothers. Each birth—whether a first or fifth—is its own sacred journey, and I am honored to support every woman exactly where she is.

From a clinical perspective, 90% of babies were born in the vertex (head-down) position, while 10% were breech births, carefully supported at home through thoughtful planning and trust. 10% of babies were born en caul, a rare and awe-inspiring reminder of just how miraculous birth truly is. This year also included the powerful and healing experience of supporting one VBAC mother, affirming what is possible when women are trusted and informed.

As I close out 2025, I return to what matters most: 100% of the mothers I served were happy with their birth experience and were able to birth peacefully in the comfort of their own homes—fully supported, empowered, and respected with me along their side. 

I now lovingly sign off to 2026, looking forward to meeting many more mothers and welcoming many more beautiful babies into the world. It is an honor I never take for granted. I would be honored to have you next.

With love and gratitude,
