I truly don’t have the words to fully capture the experience we had. From beginning to end, my family was cared for in such a genuine and intentional way. Every question we had was answered before we even had the chance to ask—it made the entire process feel smooth, safe, and supported.

Going into a home birth, I honestly didn’t know what to expect, and I was nervous. But she made it feel not only possible, but natural and achievable. When it came time to push, I was scared—but she guided me through it with such calm, confident, and reassurance that I was able to do something I didn’t think I could.

Her guidance, patience, kindness, nurturing spirit, and her ability to step into a focused, get-it-done mode when needed was everything I needed for a successful home birth. She has such a powerful way of advocating for her clients—it’s truly something to be admired.

Not only have I gained a lifelong midwife, but I’ve also gained a sister. Like I told her, I don’t care where she is—we will travel if we have to, because she is the only person I trust to bring my children into this world.

Thank you for assisting me through not just one, but two beautiful births. I love you, and I am forever grateful.

As a NICU nurse in Columbus, Georgia, I was nervous and skeptical about home birth due to how many babies having to come to NICU from a home birth. I felt it was not safe. Being pregnant with my second child and having a traumatic birth with my first, I wanted someone that would advocate for me in the hospital if need be. I choose Michelle to be my Doula. Over our time together, she somehow persuaded me to try home birth. It was the best scariest decision I ever made. From keeping me informed of what she is doing, having her equipment ready, and being patient but nearby had me in a trance of safety and peace. She has changed my perspective on home birth.

I want to thank Michelle for helping us bring our daughter here into our arms while she was here in Georgia. She is such an awesome Midwife. Soo intuitive and joyful. She made sure we did not lack nothing. I was a first time mom and wasn’t sure I could push out a baby. Michelle was right there by my side to guide me. My husband is now pro Homebirth only because of this.

Midwife Michelle and her birth team was truly amazing! Michelle made sure she listened to my needs and honored them. Birthing my baby in the pool was not what I was expecting but it definitely helped my pain. I know she will get me for saying this but this is a midwife that is not about the money but about helping. I didn’t have nothing and didn’t want to go to the hospital. She made a way for me. I love you girl.

I had the honor of having Michelle as my midwife and let me tell you, I will seek her out to deliver all of my future children. Michelle is intuitive, thoughtful and she cares beyond the usual spectrum of a midwife. Michelle helped me find my bravest self to bring my baby earth side. I would highly recommend her to anyone who, you need her, believe me. Having Michelle apart of my birth experience made it so peaceful and wholesome.

Midwife Michelle exemplifies professionalism, compassion, and dedication in her care for mothers and mothers-to-be. She is knowledgeable in midwifery and consistently provides thoughtful education and support throughout pregnancy and the postpartum period.

I have witnessed her strong work ethic and commitment during labor and deliveries in Georgia. She brings both skill and a calm, reassuring presence to every birth experience. Michelle is awesome and Hawaii has gained a wonderful midwife.

Michelle made my labor and birth experience so wonderful. Welcoming our baby girl at home felt so right and peaceful, and the care didn’t stop there, she made us a warm postpartum meal that we’ll never forget. It really felt like home. Thank you again!

I started my pregnancy receiving care at Tripler, but felt I was being dismissed a lot and my doctor didn’t feel fully aligned for me. I began searching for other options, and after connecting with Michelle, I made the decision to transfer into her care for a homebirth and it was the best decision I could have made. From beginning to end, she made me feel like I had a best friend by my side who just happened to be delivering my baby. There was so much laughter, peace, and genuine care. She took the time to explain everything and helped me feel confident in my body and my decisions. During labor, her presence was calm and reassuring. She respected my preferences and supported my husband in catching our baby girl, which made the experience even more special. Postpartum, it meant so much to have her come check on us. She didn’t want us lifting a finger just resting and bonding as a family. She answered every question I had, even in moments of anxiety, with so much patience and care. Michelle has brought so much peace into our home. We are beyond grateful. We never imagined how much a homebirth could change us, and that’s truly because of her knowledge and support.

I want to thank Michelle for the heart she poured into my birth. This was my third homebirth, and I can sincerely say that none of the midwives I’ve used before offered the level of support, care, and love that Michelle gave to my family. After my son was born, I had some trouble with breastfeeding. Michelle was able to quickly identify what was going on, but she didn’t just fix it and leave, she stayed well past our scheduled visit until I felt confident and comfortable with my son’s latch. That meant so much to me. She also made our son a baby blanket as a keepsake, and it’s something we will cherish forever. Michelle is truly one of a kind. I sincerely hope she never leaves Hawaii.
