I do not have enough positive things to say about Kristen. I was very diligent in my process for interviewing midwives when I first found out I was pregnant. It was hard because it was my first pregnancy and I really just knew in my heart what I wanted and didn’t know if I would find that individual. I had seen very few recommendations for her but I really liked how responsive she was in setting up an interview. Our first call I took by myself as I was working and I just felt so different than with other midwives. She trusted me and that made me trust her. We set up a second call with my husband to make sure it was all a fit and immediately in the call he was really on board. From my prenatal appointments to post partum appointments, Kristen was diligent in her care. She would hear my fears and worries and help me talk them out. She is super educated and not prideful, if she needed to ask her mentor she didn’t shy away from stating that. There was never a time where I felt like she wasn’t there for me in my care of her. As time neared my birth she reassured me of my capacity and nature. We talked about and visualized my birthing day and had a backup plan should we need it. As a first time mom I was fully prepared to go to 41 weeks and have a long labor, but at 37 weeks I woke up at 5 am with bloody show. I called Kristen immediately and she picked up and offered to come and check me. From our time together and all she had taught me I knew that resting and eating/hydrating were most important at signs of labor. I was so calm. I told her I would keep her updated as I progressed but that I needed to rest. My labor unlike the average first time mom progressed really quickly. By 10:30 I was having contractions 3 minutes apart and 1 minute or more in length. I called Kristen and said it was time and thankfully she was very close by to my house. When she got there, I was having very intense contractions. She was filling up the tub and getting everything ready and when a contraction would come she came and did counter pressure on my hips. Each time reassuring me I was doing great. At around 11:30 I got in the tub for what I think was rest and be grateful time. Each contraction after that was so so intense. I had vocalized along my pregnancy that I had no desire for cervical checks but as the contractions became greater in pressure I needed reassurance to know if baby was coming soon or if it would be awhile. I asked Kristen to check me and she did, affirming that my body was working optimally and baby was doing everything right. Her head was right there. My baby was born at 12:50 pm. As soon as she arrived, Kristen was monitoring me carefully and I was unfortunately bleeding a bit too much. She and my husband and her assistant helped me out of the tub and to the toilet to hopefully get my placenta out. The hope was that once the placenta came out, the bleeding would subside. It was unfortunately not the case. I tore pretty good and passed out twice on the way to my bed. Kristen took every measure to make sure the bleeding would stop and I knew how serious it was when she told me if I passed out one more time, we would call an ambulance. It was the last thing I wanted. They sat me on the floor in my bedroom and had me eat and drink electrolytes, and she gave me tinctures. Thankfully my bleeding slowed and I did not pass out again. She examined my tear and was very honest that the best choice was for this to be looked at by a doctor in the hospital. While I was bummed to go to the hospital, I am so thankful she wasn’t too proud or crunchy to help me get the care I needed. So alas, we went to the hospital and she came with us. She stayed the entire time and while my husband held our baby, Kristen held my hand as I got sutured. I think back to that and get emotional because I felt so safe. I knew that she had my care and well being at the forefront of her mind. After I got sutured she went back to our house while we waited to get discharged and met us there. When we got back to the house it was completely cleaned up. Everything was in its proper place like nothing had even happened. I know she and her assistant brandy (whom we also loved) worked tireslessly this day. When we got back to the house she made sure I was tucked into bed and perfectly fine. Our postpartum care was incredible as well. I don’t want to have another midwife, ever. Kristen is the epitome of what a midwife should be. I am so thankful for her. For trusting and believing in me as a first time mom and never ensuing any doubt or fear in my brain. I am thankful that my well being was always her priority and that she was always honest. If you are considering Kristen but have hesitations, please know you will receive the best care from a person who believes in you and supports your intuition. Kristen, with all my heart and love, THANK YOU. 🙏🏻

Kristen was my midwife for my second home birth. She was absolutely wonderful. I'm looking forward to having her at my next birth. She was so helpful in my pregnancy. I really struggled with a lot of things and she would often stop by, after I texted her that I was struggling, to check on me(with my permission of course). I had a lot of contractions and weird episodes with shaking. She worked with me through them and always listened to my concerns. She never made me feel stupid for asking questions or being fearful of labor despite being through it before. She was very cautious to ask me what I was okay with before doing it. Things such as using a Doppler, if I wanted my urine checked and etc. even in labor. Kristen is as hands on or hands off as you need her. She reads the room well and is very knowledgeable. If theres anything she doesnt know (which is rare) she consults other midwives to gain more knowledge. You can see her love for Christ in her practice. She made me feel safe and cared for and I can say I gained a friend through this whole experience. Kristen was an answer to my prayers and I am grateful for her. Pros: in touch with emotional side of labor and birth, flexible with appointments and comes to your home, Very reasonably priced, included prenatals, a pelvic floor therapy appointment, lactation and more in her package. Cons: She's amazing there's no cons Pictures of my sweet boy born March 8, 2025. 6lbs 14oz

There are few people that when you see their profession in action, you know they were truly made to do it. Kristen embodies the very heart of midwifery! She delivered my baby boy in March of 2025 and I could not imagine my home birth experience with anyone else. As a first time mom, pregnancy and birth was a world of unknowns. Kristen provided me with the care to ease my mind and prepare my body both physically and mentally. Despite her busy schedule, her prenatal appointments were never rushed and I felt an instant comfort with her to ask any question. She is extremely knowledgeable- I learned more in my first appointment with her than I had with any doctor! My wishes were always respected- she thoroughly explained every medical action and gave me control of final decisions. I did not fully understand the extent of Kristen’s care until I entered labor. She tirelessly and selflessly supported me through a lengthy labor. Her encouragement and guidance strengthened me from the first contraction to last push. Kristen’svery presence brings a sense of peace to labor and empowers women to do what our amazing bodies were made to do in a natural and comfortable setting. I will be forever grateful to Kristen and my home birth experience and strongly recommend her for your journey! She is a blessing.

I loved having Kristen as a midwife from start to finish. She respected my decisions throughout my pregnancy. She is so knowledgeable in so many different areas of pregnancy and birth. I felt totally confident going into my birth. My recent birth of my daughter was my best experience out of all three of my kiddos. Would highly recommend, Kristen!

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The home birth experience of my dreams — thanks to Kristen As a first-time mom, I had so many emotions going into pregnancy — excitement, fear, uncertainty — especially when it came to labor and birth. I knew I wanted to have my baby at home, but I also knew that I needed the right person by my side. The moment I met Kristen, I felt this immediate sense of peace. She was exactly who I didn't even know I was hoping for. Kristen made me feel so safe, so seen, and so completely supported every step of the way. She took the time to truly listen, to answer every single one of my questions (no matter how small or repetitive), and to build a relationship of trust that carried me through my entire journey. When it came time to give birth, things were hard — emotionally, physically — but never once did I feel alone or unsure. Kristen was calm, grounded, and steady in every moment. Her presence was everything. She reminded me how strong I was, how capable my body was, and she held space for me in a way that allowed me to fully surrender to the process. Even with all the unknowns and the weight of being a first-time mom, my birth ended up being exactly what I wanted and needed — and that's because Kristen was there. She created an environment that was safe, sacred, and full of love. I can't imagine having done it with anyone else. If you're considering a home birth or looking for a midwife who truly honors you and your experience, Kristen is that person. She's a gift, and I'll always be grateful she was part of my story.
