Ashley Payne - Midwife - Lakeland, FL

About Ashley

Hi, I'm Ashley! I'm a Certified Nurse-Midwife, wife, mom of eight, and the owner of Lakeland Birth & Gynecology in Lakeland, Florida. My passion for midwifery comes from both my professional experience and my own journey through motherhood. I've experienced hospital birth, cesarean birth, VBAC, and homebirth, so I understand firsthand how personal and meaningful each birth experience can be. I believe women deserve to feel heard, respected, informed, and genuinely supported throughout pregnancy and birth. My approach is rooted in evidence-based care, shared decision-making, and the belief that pregnancy and birth are natural processes that deserve thoughtful, individualized attention. I support a woman's right to make informed choices while always keeping the safety of both mother and baby a priority. My Christian faith is an important part of who I am and how I care for others. I strive to lead with kindness, compassion, and humility, welcoming families from all backgrounds and beliefs. Whether you're planning your first birth or your eighth, my goal is to build a relationship where you feel comfortable asking questions, confident in your decisions, and supported every step of the way. It is truly a privilege to be invited into such a special chapter of a family's life.
