Hello, Grace Jackson here I am the owner of Grace Midwifery Birth Center and a Certified Professional Midwife, licensed in the state of Louisiana . I am committed to offering pregnant women more individualized, intimate care. I believe that a mother should be in control of her birth experience as an active and informed decision maker every step of the way. From the very first appointment, to the moment she holds her baby in her arms, she is in control. Childbirth, when viewed from an empowered and connected frame of mind, has the potential to be a beautiful, transformative, life changing event. I fully believe that birthing is a normal physiological process in a woman’s life and when supported by a healthy lifestyle, little intervention is ever needed. I see myself as more of a birth guardian who walks alongside a mother, making sure she has the utmost reassurance and guidance. Birth is natural and beautiful; it can be a completely different experience when not approached from a fear based mindset. Instead, we choose to approach pregnancy and birth with positive, evidence based information as a biologically normal experience. After a 4 year comprehensive apprenticeship, I earned my Certified Professional Midwives (CPM) license. This credentialing is the national gold standard for midwifery certification. It is only available after demonstrating the experience and skills necessary to attend an out-of-hospital birth. The candidate that passes an extensive exam administered by the North American Registry of Midwives (NARM), is required to maintain current certification in adult, infant and neonatal CPR and resuscitation. I am also licensed by the state of Louisiana and recognized by the Board of Medical Examiners as a licensed caregiver. As a midwife, it is my duty to stay up to date with evidence based information as well as ongoing education. To date, I have attended over 270 births.

FOR THE GUYS! If you are on the fence about making the financial commitment to getting Brandi for your woman’s upcoming delivery, let me tell you that it is worth every single penny! I have been through two deliveries with my wife, the first one without a doula, the second one with Brandi. If you have been through labor with your woman before without a doula, then you know how bad it is for your woman. You also know how bad it feels to not be able to help your woman in labor because you just don’t know how. And even if you did, your woman doesn’t wanna listen to you since are indeed a man! If you haven’t been through labor with your woman, buckle up, because it is a rough ride! And I promise you this, the baby doesn’t care if it is 3:00 AM and you have work the next day, it is coming! My wife woke me up around 1:00AM or so and said our little boy was on the way. By 2:00 AM, Brandi was there in our home helping my wife through contractions. She worked magic that only a woman with heavy amounts of experience can execute. And she did it with a calm and peaceful presence and a professional level of expertise. Not only does Brandi help your woman through labor, she helps you by taking care of your woman so you can load up the truck! Next thing I knew, we were driving down Highway 49 headed to the hospital. We pulled up to the ER entrance at 3:00 AM. I unloaded my wife, the ER nurse grabbed a wheelchair, and Brandi rushed in and helped escort my wife up to labor and delivery. That gave me a chance to go park the truck and grab the bags since I knew my wife was in good hands. Brandi continued to guide my wife through labor once we were in the delivery room, calming her down in ways only a doula could. By 5:40 AM, our little boy way delivered! In summary, not getting Brandi would be foolish. If you are lucky enough to get a chance to hire her for your woman’s delivery, you will forever be glad you did. And your woman will be more grateful than words can express! Good luck and enjoy the ride, gentleman! P.S. Make sure to get her placenta encapsulated! And then nicely remind her to take a few capsules whenever she isn’t feeling herself postpartum!
