Your midwives offer full disclosure of their experience, background and education, and are committed to supporting you in making truly informed health care decisions. Debbie has earned a BS in nutrition and dietetics, a BS and MS in nursing, and is a nurse midwife. She has attended homebirths since 2001. Britt has earned a BS and MS in nursing, and is certified as a women’s health nurse practitioner and as a nurse-midwife. Britt has attended homebirths since 2006. Both midwives are certified in CPR and neonatal resuscitation. Debbie and Britt are Registered Nurses and Certified Nurse Midwives who practice individually as Licensed Midwives under state statute created by a 2005 Wisconsin Act.

Debbie and Britt have worked together since the spring of 2008 and have shared the practice since September 2009. Our work as midwives will always require balance between our roles as wives, mothers and midwives. In order to achieve this balance, our practice will accept four to six births per month while allowing each of us one to two month full months off during the year.
