When you work in the midwifery industry, you always need to be learning. Research changes, and methods quickly become outdated. If you want to keep gaining clients while improving your practice, you have to dedicate yourself to constant studying. It can be overwhelming, but don’t worry. We’re here to help!

This is why we designed our course, Keeping Up with Midwifery Quality Standards.

You’ll feel prepared to tackle the business angles such as phone etiquette, patient intake process, office staffing, and contract drafting. We’ll also review legal defense tips.

Our mission with this class is to ensure you’re ready to keep your practice up-to-date so you can stand apart from the rest.

Becoming a midwife has been a lifelong dream. I didn't realize that this wonderful profession would lead me down the path of business. I have found over the years that midwives need to understand business, accounting, financing, marketing, negotiating, and so much more to be successful in today's healthcare system. I love supporting women. By being able to participate in leadership roles and create amazing private practices, I can support midwives just as much as the pregnant women they care for! I am passionate about women's empowerment and women's business ownership. We can serve families best with independent, successful midwifery practices.

I have over 16 years’ of experience in health care. I have worked in hospitals, birth centers, and home settings. I have worked for large non-profit hospitals, small community hospitals, privately run birth centers, hospital-owned birth centers, my own home birth/birth center practice, and locum assignments. Being able to understand the business and financial side of midwifery has shown me how much easier a midwife's practice can be profitable and successful in today's health care ever-changing climate.

Let me help you start your own practice or improve the current midwifery business you are struggling with. I have years of billing, accounting, contracting, business plan writing, and midwifery clinical expertise to make your midwifery practice thrive no matter what stage it is in! Whether you want a small home birth practice, large birth center practice, or booming hospital midwifery practice, I can provide guidance, support, and resources to make your midwifery practice dreams a reality!
