About Cynthia

My midwifery journey began with the home births of my own children which inspired me to share the transformative experience of owning my birth and becoming Me. I began my homebirth midwifery journey through traditional apprenticeship which took me halfway across the world and back again. With 15 years of midwifery experience, I am now a Certified Professional Midwife attending home births in Massachusetts, Connecticut, and Rhode Island. Through those years I led an organic lifestyle homeschooling my three children, and building a small suburban homestead. I find peace and connection whenever I am outdoors and in my free time enjoy hiking, biking, and gardening. My passion is to guide families as their own stories unfold.
