Hi! We are a comprehensive midwifery practice providing a wide range of midwifery services for homebirth and birth center births across San Diego County. We specialize in VBACs (vaginal birth after cesarean), home births, and waterbirths.
We view childbirth as a natural event and not a medical emergency. Having a child is a transformative experience, a journey that calls for particular attention to mind-body-spirit harmony.
Our midwife practice works as a team so you will get to know both of your midwives very well. We do not assign particular midwives per birth and you are guaranteed one midwife and one birth assistant on your birthing day.
We look forward to connecting and supporting you!
Brianna was born and raised in Las Vegas, NV. Growing up she dreamed of empowering women and after learning about Midwifery, she knew she had discovered her calling. In 2014, she relocated to Santa Barbara to attend CSUCI. While attending her general education classes she was fascinated by Psychology and the potential of integrating the mind, body, and spirit to improve health outcomes. With the high prevalence of perinatal mood disorders in the United States, she knew she wanted to address this in her future career as a Midwife. In 2019 she graduated with a B.S. in Psychology and minored in Chicano Studies. While a student, she volunteered at the local maternity home teaching prenatal nutrition classes and provided doula services to the local community. In 2019, she volunteered with AmeriCorps as a Community Health Worker helping to address social determinants of health in the Southern Utah region. This experience showed her the strength of community and the importance of providing continuity of care. When her 12-month term had ended with AmeriCorps, she moved to San Diego to attend Midwifery school and begin her clinical placement with San Diego Midwife. Brianna currently studies at the National College of Midwifery and plans to graduate in 2023. During her free time, she enjoys discovering new cafes to study at, sunset cliffs yoga, beach days, and hikes with her dog, Itzli.
