I’m Connie Lambeth, a Certified Professional Midwife and Licensed Midwife. My love of birth started as a preschooler — when my mother asked me what I wanted to do when I grew up — I knew I wanted to catch babies. I had the ability to receive midwifery care during both of my pregnancies and births, and postpartum experiences. Directly benefitting from midwifery care lit the fire in my life of what is possible for individualized holistic healthcare. I’ve been professionally involved in birthwork since 2015, first as a certified doula and Hypnobirthing childbirth educator, and now as a midwife. I earned my midwifery degree from the National College of Midwifery based out of Taos, NM, and studied my hands-on learning over an intensive two years. I had the honor of apprenticing with two home birth midwives in the Madison area, and at a high volume out-of-hospital birth center in Milwaukee under the guidance of five midwives and one physician. Before becoming a midwife, I was a teacher (I’ve taught early childhood to adult learners, from Public to Montessori), with a Master’s Degree in Educational Research. As a lifelong learner and experiential educator, I see pregnancy, birth, postpartum, and parenting as life’s greatest experiential lessons. Although I don’t teach in a classroom anymore, I use my background as a teacher, educator, and researcher to help families to make informed choices and feel supported while they grow. I’m committed to diversity, equity, and inclusion in my practice of culturally competent and comprehensive midwifery care. I value each individual navigating their childbearing year tremendously and strive to do everything I can do to support them in reaching their goals. Helping individuals and their families during one of the most influential transitions of their lives speaks to my values and most natural skill set: compassion, empathy, and openness.

My name is Chloey, and I am a dedicated doula passionate about supporting birthing families on their unique journeys. I am deeply rooted in our community and committed to providing compassionate care to the CR community. In October 2023, I welcomed my beautiful daughter, Aspen, into the world, an experience that ignited my passion for birth and inspired me to become a doula. Navigating my own birthing journey made me realize the profound impact of having the right support and guidance during such a transformative time. I graduated from the University of Iowa in May 2024 with my bachelors in psychology, and am now on my second year of my bachelors degree in midwifery. My goal is to ensure that every family feels confident, respected, and supported as they bring new life into the world. I am here to help you have your birth, your way and look forward to working with you!

I'm a hard worker. I strive to put people first. I'm also incredibly patient with others and love listening to others. I'm just starting out my journey here, so bear with me.
