  • We believe in keeping birth normal, in order to enhance the health of women, their children, and future generations by supporting epigenetic health.  

The Beginning of Evensong

Both Carrie and I have been practicing Midwives for years.  We’ve practiced in various settings able to glean knowledge and skills while in all of them.  We met at Western Wisconsin Health in Baldwin and connected immediately.  Both of us have similar practice styles and fully honor the process of pregnancy and birth.  When the pandemic began, we slowly started to feel the pull to move out of the mainstream medical system.  We believe there are countless, beautiful reasons to birth at home without a global pandemic going on, but through the changes that COVID brought, it really became apparent to us that birth should not be done with limited family or birth support in attendance, mandatory testing, or masking. 

It was an easy transition to come together and create a private midwifery and women’s health practice.  We both enjoy the many benefits that a dual midwife practice offers and know that our clients benefit from both of our unique approaches, experiences, and personalities.  We love getting to know families while supporting them through such a truly miraculous journey.  We understand how important it is to be informed, empowered, and supported in your choices.  It is amazing to witness an expecting mom bloom in the care of loving, experienced midwives who listen and respect her choices. 

We are honored to practice evidence-based care and utilize shared decision-making while providing an environment of safety and respect for all families.  

Not only are we deeply passionate about birth but we are also inspired by a functional medicine approach and getting to the root of women’s health concerns.  We are so excited to offer functional medicine, holistic hormone care, and functional medicine support for women both in and out of pregnancy - something that is a rarity in our country today.


What does Evensong mean? 

As I have grown in my practice, some of the wisdom I have received has been that wellness is similar to a beautiful piece of music.  There are many intricate parts that interplay, combining together to form an experience.  It is complex and rich, and not without a little magic.  We can’t focus on only one part of the song, or one instrument, we need to consider every role to create a beautiful piece of art.  We need to practice to make music good, and we definitely don’t do it perfectly the first time.  Evensong is a word for an evening prayer that is based on choral music.  This beautiful, musical, quiet, prayerful time of night has a special place in my heart and just fits perfectly with the feelings I had about starting this practice.

We cannot wait to support you as you seek true well-being.
