I tried to go to more traditional hospital doctor appointments while I was pregnant but I knew I was interested in midwifery care. I ended up trying out the hospital obgyn method and I swear I only ever saw a doctor for 5 minutes tops after waiting 40. Then, any time I had questions about pregnancy or my own body, there was not time or space for me to ask without being labeled as difficult.

Making the switch to midwifery care with Jeni absolutely changed my pregnancy experience. If I ever needed to wait to be seen it was 5mins tops and then once I was seen Jeni would talk to me for 40mins and help educate me through what was going on in my body. They also referred me to a doula who was so helpful as well. I gave birth in such an empowered manner though things didn’t turn out as planned. Jeni is the best!

She was so thorough with my care that my last few weeks pregnant when my blood pressure spiked she transferred me over to the hospital. It was not the plan at all. I was devastated but Jeni encouraged me through the slight disappointment. Let me tell you—i Got to the hospital to be and the nurses said they LOVED coming into my room. It was so peaceful they said and I already knew what I was doing. They also noted how I already had my after birth tinctures for contractions and came prepared. With diffuser and twinkle lights and soft musical playing, though we pivoted I know it’s because of my care at the Village Midwife that I had an empowered birth experience. It’s not just charting and labs, it’s education and lowkey inspirational that my body was made to bring my daughter into this world, sometimes we need more help, often we don’t.

I 100/10 recommend and would go back again.

Funny enough Jeni also delivered my friends baby At her home a few weeks before I gave birth. She is the best!

I love Jeni so much! Such an amazing midwife and human being. She’ll make you laugh, cry (in a good way), and be there when you need her most. She has so much experience and gives great advice and never makes you feel crazy! She really helped me during my pregnancy and always answered all my questions. I would recommend The Village Midwife to all pregnant mamas!

I had an amazing homebirth 💪🏿experience. My sun ☀️CJ🤴🏿 is almost 11 months now growing big and strong. Gratitude!!!💙
