Childbirth being one's most significant life passage, those close to us when we open to birth a baby will never be forgotten.

Gentle birth, protecting mother and baby, is a solution that I believe will result in positive change for our society.

I get crazy upset when I feel mothers or babies are not getting the loving care they need.

I get happy very easily and very often.

Research points to the fact that being born without trauma is the foundation for having an intact capacity to love and trust.

My passion for maternal and child health led me to continue my studies and pursue the path of midwifery. And here I am now... still catching babies.

My sister had health insurance; she should have been warned by her doctors that she was at risk. But she was a minority. The doctors took little interest in her as an individual, and she fell through the cracks. And died.
