Peaceful Journeys Midwifery offers holistic and comprehensive Women's Health services to ladies throughout their life cycle.
My path to Midwifery took longer than expected and was not without its twists and turns. Even as a small child I was fascinated by pregnancy and birth and would mortify my mother by touching every pregnant belly I saw, friend and stranger alike. Initially I pursued the pre- medicine route but it became clear to me that I would not be able to offer the care that I wanted to provide to the women I served.
After this realization, I decided to change my major to Nursing and obtained my BSN at Shenandoah University with the sole intent being to immediately continue for my Masters in Midwifery. I was blessed to go into out of hospital birth, the area of my calling and passion, after taking my Boards and practicing at St. Joseph’s Hospital. I really do have the best “job” in the world because I am surrounded by loving Midwives and amazing women.
It is my hope to serve you well.
Currently, I live in Winchester with my husband and my two children. I am originally from Tennessee and you will hear that in my accent. My son was born via C/S and my daughter was a VBAC hospital transfer during a planned homebirth. My babies didn’t make it easy on me, but through them I continue to learn empathy, understanding, patience, strength, and the tenacity of woman.
