Licensed MidwifeI believe in a woman's ability to give birth. When a woman has knowledge and is shown love and compassion during the birth process, the impact on her and her family is profound. My desire, as I serve your family, is to empower you and provide you with the information necessary to make your own decisions about your care. It is a privilege to serve and guide new parents during this precious time. I currently practice in Rock County and the surrounding areas.
“I remember wanting my mom so badly immediately after giving birth. She wasn’t there, but you were. You came around the bed and hugged me, and I lost it. I bawled like I’ve never bawled before. I’m crying now, writing this, because I’m still so appreciative to have had you as that safe space. Thank you so much for everything you do.”

“Thank you for everything you did for me during my pregnancy and especially my birth. I knew I was in good hands the second I met you and could not have imagined better (or calmer) care. I will appreciate you for the rest of my life!
Emma
"This pregnancy was such a roller coaster for me. There were times I doubted myself and times I questioned if I would actually be able to do it. You never doubted me. You believed in me. I don't have enough words to express how happy I am. The second [our baby] was born I felt all of the trauma lift off of me and float away. This was the healing birth that I hoped and dreamed for.
Thank you so much for believing in me. Thank you for supporting my desire to try again. Thank you for never doubting me.”

“What I appreciated most about my birth with Linda was her reassurance, her meeting me where I was at mentally, and her gentle nudges that helped move me toward delivering my baby. She supported me and loved me through it, even saying if I ever needed to talk about the experience years down the road, she'd only ever be a phone call away.”
Claire
“I could write a book on how this woman has impacted my life in so many positive ways. I didn't just get a midwife - I got a friend, a confidant, a mentor… I am gonna stop there because I'm already crying. I just love her so, so much.”
Chantel
“I have only met a few people in my life who I thought were doing what God called them to do and Linda is one of those people. She isn’t there to just tend to the medical needs of mom and baby. She takes care of your heart and soul and I truly believe it makes such a difference in pregnancy care. She always says “I’m here to care for the mother” and that is such a true statement in every way. I would never have a baby without her.”
Alyssa
“My relationship with God is super important to me and I remember vividly one appointment where she asked to pray over me as my anxiety about the impending birth was crippling. Never have I felt so safe and comfortable with a provider! There are no words to describe what a blessing she has been to me and my family.”
