Find a Midwife Near Me in Dover, DE

For 26 years my desire has been to help families create the birthing experience they desire. I provide all care in the families home and believe women know best how to birth their babies. 💗

As a homebirth midwife, it is my hope to facilitate an empowering environment for women to receive respectful care centered around bodily autonomy and supporting the family unit as a whole from pregnancy and birth to postpartum. My goal is to help you feel confident and informed with each choice that presents itself through out your entire time with me as your care provider. I believe no matter what birthing experience you chose, or if your plans change, having a say along with some self efficacy in your care can help achieve better birth outcomes overall.

Studied natural birth for 2 months in the Philippines and 3 months in Mexico as a birth assistant and years in the US working as a doula. I have also spent 6 months in Alaska with GoMidwife working on academics and building my skills as a midwife, 13 months working with Karen Webster at WomanWise Midwifery and 2 months in a busy birthing house in PA. I also attended SWTC's midwifery program. I have been working in the birth world for 11 years and am excited to continue for many more! I am currently licensed in Maryland and Delaware and am based out of Berlin, Maryland. When I’m not busy with my own little family or researching and working with Mommas and babies I am working in fiber art, playing music, creating, latin or ballroom dancing, teaching fitness or music and many other things. I love working with my hands and creating beautiful things for everyday life. Althea Midwifery came from both my and my daughter’s middle name. Althea means Beautiful, Wholesome and Healing. Those words perfectly describe the desires I have for each birth I am involved with.

Hello everyone. My name is Taja Iglesias but you can call me Tay. I am a mother, full spectrum doula, doula trainer, lactation professional, placenta practitioner and soon-to-be midwife! My career supporting families in all capacities of parenthood led me to becoming the founder of The Momager Co. - a doula & parenting support agency. Experiencing disparities as an Afro-Latinx LGBTQ parent and walking with many families going through similar challenges with little to no access to support, led me to expanding The Monager Co and adding in our non profit - The Momager Collective: sister company to The Momager Co specifically serving low-income parents and families of underrepresented communities like the BIPOC and LGBTQ+ families. When it comes to caring for clients, our Momagers provide bespoke care that is tailored to your needs.

My calling for birth work started with a traumatic first birth, but has opened my eyes to the beauty that is child birth. I began educating myself which resulted in discovering what a doula was. I felt in my heart if I was able to rewrite my birth narrative, then I can be that person for others. I began attending births as a doula in November 2021. Along this journey, I became pregnant with my third child and was able to experience the difference the midwifery model of care can make. As I carried my child in my womb, attending mostly hospital births as a doula, I saw so many women not being heard or respected. I felt this urgency to become a midwife myself, because all women deserve to be supported. Birth is a natural event that sometimes needs medical attention and not the other way around. I was so inspired to make this my life’s work that I enrolled at the National College of Midwifery September 2022. I have not only been a victim myself but witnessed how our culture has stripped women of their birthing power. I have had three very different personal experiences with three very different births myself. One very medicalized birth turned into cesarean, one unmedicated vbac in a hospital and my last birth was at a birth center ! My hope and passion is to help other women feel the power that comes when their autonomy is left intact! I believe that birth is sacred. I believe in you and your ability to birth. I hold space for the spiritual, the physical, the emotional. I am here to help you with your fears, your hopes, and your dreams. In January 2023 I decided to attend a reiki 1 and 2 training. I have been incorporating this spiritual modality when requested. The pairing on energy work within the birth space has had a magical impact on my clients and my own personal enlightenment. I believe that every woman deserves to birth in a way that is safe for her and her baby, in a way that assures she feels honored and supported.

I have been attending births since 1996, first as a doula and childbirth educator and since 2008 as a licensed midwife in NJ and 2010 in NY. I have been in private practice and partnerships with wonderful midwives and have mentored many students through the process of becoming a midwife in the apprenticeship model. I believe birth is sacred, and that the sovereignty of the birthing person must be kept in mind throughout pregnancy, birth, and the postpartum period. Keeping reproductive justice at the forefront of the work midwives do is critical to reducing maternal and infant mortality in the United States. I believe that midwives have a responsibility to that work and are the answer to the maternal mortality crisis we are facing. I have had multiple leadership roles at both state and national levels and continues to volunteer helping to move midwifery forward in both NJ and NY with the goal of recreating systems so that birthing people can have access to the equitable and culturally congruent care they deserve. I am the mother to five amazing adult children and Grammy to four precious grandchildren. The birth of a child is an amazing mixture of physical happenings, emotional ups and downs and spiritual and personal growth. It brings with it the realization that we are powerful and powerless at the same time; that we can be in control while surrendering; and that nothing else at that moment, hour, day or even days matters, only the intensity of the work we have to do to bring this precious life from us, to us. It is a true blessing and an honor to be present, and I feel privileged to be a part of the journey.
