Kia's compassion and love for what she does is nothing short of AMAZING. I have the utmost trust and faith in her and would recommend her a thousand times. Thank you for allowing God to use you the way He does. We love ya to the moon and back!

WOW! Where do I start? From the moment we met Mrs. Kia we knew she and the team would be the ones to deliver our miracle baby. Every appointment, every interaction, every unexpected event, she was there ready to assist in the most professional, loving way. She has truly become a part of our family. During delivery (well after, lol inside joke) she was super attentive to the entire family. Ensuring we were good, answering questions and catering to me as the mother.

I had the pleasure of being supported by Kia throughout my some of my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey, and I’m truly grateful for her presence and care. From our prenatal visits to postpartum check-ins, she was knowledgeable, attentive, and always willing to be hands-on when needed. Although she arrived just before I was ready to push, she entered my birth space with such grace and calm. She intuitively held space for me as I brought my baby earthside

Her presence helped keep my home water birth environment peaceful and sacred. I deeply appreciated how she moved with intention, respect, and quiet strength—reminding me that sometimes the most powerful form of support is grounded, loving presence. Thank you, Kia, for walking alongside me in this sacred season. You have such a radiant gift for this work, and I know the families you support will feel just as held, seen, and supported as I did. With gratitude, Tee Jae

Kia was the student midwife for my first pregnancy and second pregnancy. She was starting with my first and finishing with my second and in both phases of her training I cannot highly recommend her enough. I also had the pleasure of starting my midwifery training with her as the senior student at the time and she is refreshing to be around no matter what aspect of life she is helping you through. From student, to mentor, to midwife, Kia maintains her character with everyone.

Working with Kia as the licensed midwife in the role of serving as our clients doula was unmatched. The beauty of Kia knowing how to trust her clients bodies and acknowledge that progress is happening without excessive cervical checks and pressure to do anything besides what they naturally feel. Kia trusted my abilities as a doula while protecting her client and baby medically. The teamwork has been organic and refreshing in the home births as I feel secure knowing she is leading our team.
