  • Together with Libby, I had an incredibly empowering experience through the birth of my son.

    Libby was such an integral and important part of my birth experience. I loved getting to know her and felt incredibly seen and valued under her care. She helped me feel important and capable and to take these emotions with me into my labor and delivery experience. As a first time mom and a survivor of sexual abuse, birth could have been a painful and traumatizing experience. Together with Libby, I had an incredibly empowering experience through the birth of my son. She made birth a safe and holy space, and I am forever grateful for her care and support!

  • The way she holds space is safe, warm and grounding.

    I cannot recommend Libby enough! She is cozy, calm and nurturing. The way she holds space is safe, warm and grounding. Every time I met with Libby, I felt at ease and taken care of. As a first time Mom, this meant so much to me. The human connection and relationship that Libby and I have cultivated means a great deal to me. I will forever cherish the memory of her gently supporting me as I brought my baby earth side. She held sacred space for me during some of the most precious and sacred moments of my life. Now she continues to enrich my life as a dear friend. Thank you, Libby. I love you oh so much!

  • Seriously one of the most kind and intentional humans I know.

    Sweet Libby, a youthful joy with an old soul. Seriously one of the most kind and intentional humans I know. If you have the honor of having Libby as your midwife, consider yourself lucky :) She has such a unique way of connecting with not only the mamas but their families as well– she always went above and beyond to be inclusive to my husband and my firstborn during my second pregnancy. My son absolutely adores Miss Libby and still talks about her to this day! We felt so comfortable and confident being under her care and would highly recommend her to anyone searching for a midwife!

  • She is exactly the type of person that you want by your side through your pregnancy.

    Libby is a phenomenal midwife! She is exactly the type of person that you want by your side through your pregnancy. She is always patient, kind, and calm. She listened to all of my concerns and never once made me feel bad about asking too many questions. Few people are so obviously doing work that they are called to do. I wish everyone had the dedication, skill and passion in their work in the way that Libby does. I think anyone would be blessed to have Libby by their side!

  • There is no one better qualified to care for families as they navigate pregnancy and birth.

    I was blessed to have Libby as my midwife for my homebirth with my 3rd child. There is no one better qualified to care for families as they navigate pregnancy and birth. She has an amazingly calm and peaceful presence. She allowed and encouraged my kids to participate and be involved at every prenatal appointment as well as at the birth of their baby sister which felt really important and special to me. She has a way of making people feel held and loved that is so safe and pure. Could not recommend anyone better. Truly an honor to call her my midwife. We love Libby ❤️

  • I don't think I've ever had a medical professional care so much about how I was doing mentally and emotionally from prenatal to postpartum care.

    As a first time mom and someone who is scared of all things blood, Libby was everything I needed to feel safe and understood. I don't think I've ever had a medical professional care so much about how I was doing mentally and emotionally from prenatal to postpartum care. I had a parallel obgyn through my insurance only for the free tests, but their care left me feeling like like a number, and not once did the appointment last longer than 5 minutes. My experience with Libby was entirely different than that with the ob. Words can't express how thankful we were to be in her care.

  • Libby is a special soul and an incredibly gifted midwife.

    Libby is a special soul and an incredibly gifted midwife. She provided me with the midwifery experience I always dreamed of, one in which I felt informed, supported and empowered. I left my prenatal appointments feeling excited about my birth. My labor took an unexpected turn and Libby not only came with my husband and me to the hospital, but she stayed with us while I labored for hours and coached me through my emergency c-section. My postpartum care was also fantastic. Not only was Libby available to answer my myriad questions that came up as a first time mom, but she supported me with breastfeeding and was willing to help me process my birth experience for literal hours. She is so kind, so knowledgeable and so incredibly compassionate. I wholeheartedly recommend Libby!

  • Her midwifery knowledge and the care she gives is unmatched.

    Libby is an incredible person! Her midwifery knowledge and the care she gives is unmatched. Libby remains calm in all situations and is very intuitive to the kind of care you need at any given time. I always knew Libby was amazing but it wasn’t until postpartum I truly understood how amazing she was. Libby cared for my baby like it was her own and helped talk me through numerous things, including my latch for breastfeeding. If you are looking for a midwife I would recommend Libby a thousand times over.

  • Honestly the most reflective word of Libby’s services I can choose is: WOW.

    Honestly the most reflective word of Libby’s services I can choose is: WOW. She is so kind and friendly, and makes you feel at home immediately. We told Libby a big reason we chose her was because she felt like a sister to us. She is so comforting, understanding and supportive of your medical views and choices, and just all around really loving. The second we met Libby, we just knew. Our hearts were so at peace and we just had that sincere feeling of adoration with her. Anyone who knows Libby loves her. If you are looking for someone who will love and care for you more than any other doctor or midwife will, she is your lady!

  • Having her as my midwife has been the most positive and collaborative medical experience I’ve ever had.

    Libby treated me and family with so much love, respect, trust, and tenderness. Having her as my midwife has been the most positive and collaborative medical experience I’ve ever had. During my pregnancy she was always so mindful of my husband and his concerns and experience as well. I’ll never forget the gentle way she handled and spoke to my days old newborn as she took care of us postpartum. I truly cannot recommend her enough!! She has so much knowledge and guided me through so many important choices during my pregnancy and postpartum.

  • Definitely someone you want in your corner during birth!

    Definitely someone you want in your corner during birth! Coming from the dad’s side Libby was so helpful in helping me understand what was going on and insuring everything was going to be okay. She was very intelligent and selfless from the beginning. I truthfully don’t know if we could have done it without her. We love you Libby and miss you!❤️
