Hi there, I'm so glad you're here! I'm Robin and I'm a Florida licensed midwife serving women in my community which includes all of Lake, Orange, Seminole, Osceola, Sumter, Polk, Volusia as well as the surrounding areas within a one hour radius of my home in Astatula. I offer preconception counseling, home birth services including water birth, prenatal care and postpartum care. As your midwife I will be with you every step of the way encouraging and supporting you, your partner and your newborn baby. I am passionate about your birthing experience and the life long impact it will have on you and your baby. And most of all I believe in you and your ability to birth your baby without interventions, your body is designed to birth!
I began serving in the "birth world" as a birth assistant in 2007 at The Birth Place, a busy birth center near Orlando. During that time I also obtained my certifications as a Doula, Lactation Consultant and Childbirth Educator. In 2019 I graduated from the Florida School of Traditional Midwifery and obtained my Florida midwifery license through the Department of Health. I also maintain current certifications in BLS and NRP as well as keeping up with the required continuing education credits. Along with my excellent training I also offer a lifetime of experience birthing my own 8 babies completely naturally; 3 in the hospital, 4 at home and 1 at a birth center. I have also had the greatest privilege in the world of attending the births of all 6 of my grandblessings! I see every pregnancy and birth as a miracle from heaven and as a licensed and certified Midwife, I feel honored to be able to contribute my expertise to women and families in the Central Florida area.
