Find a Midwife Near Me in Wilmington, NC

I have been a home birth midwife for 25 years, have attended over 1000 births, apprenticed several students and am mother to 10 adult children, 7 of which were born at home. I have been a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) since 1998 with the North American Registry of Midwives (NARM), licensed in Virginia (2006) and South Carolina (2019). I have extensive experience in natural birth and breastfeeding, have developed workshops for skills instruction and verification. My passion is educating the next generation of midwives, the newborn/mother unit with specialties in the significance of bonding and human touch. I enjoy being lactation counselor and recently became a Spinning Babies Aware Practitioner TM (2018)

I have given birth three times and though each birth experience was vastly different, they have something in common – I will never forget them. I would love for every woman to have a special and meaningful childbirth experience. My experiences many years ago first led me to lactation peer counseling and postpartum support. My passion to serve and empower women led to becoming a birth doula, and eventually a midwife. I am certified through the North American Registry of Midwives as a Certified Professional Midwife and hold a Midwifery Bridge Certificate. I am also licensed as a midwife in the state of South Carolina. I believe birth is a natural, hormonally driven process from the onset of labor through birth of the baby and placenta, as well as the establishment of breastfeeding and the development of mother-baby attachment. To support the natural birth process, women need informational, emotional, and physical support, as well as minimal external interference.

Rose (she/her) has been a midwife for over 5 years and has been attending births in various capacities and settings for over a decade. Rose completed her midwifery training at the Yale School of Nursing in Connecticut in 2019. Rose was drawn to this work because of the magic of the birthing body and the desire to come alongside birthing people to remind them of their full power and voice. Rose had her own two babies at home, her first here in NC with a CNM and her second with a CPM while in midwifery school.
