As a first-time mom, I found Angelika through an amazing event called Village Prenatal that she co-hosted with another doula. I'm so grateful our paths crossed. After the event, I shared some of the struggles I was having with breastfeeding, and she offered to help. Angelika came to my home and worked with me on my baby's latch, my pump settings, made sure I had the correct flange size, and gave me recommendations for supplements to manage my PPA/PPD. She is incredibly knowledgeable and explained everything in a way that was easy to understand. If you're looking for a compassionate, knowledgeable, and genuinely caring doula and lactation consultant, I cannot recommend Angelika enough. She made such a meaningful difference in my breastfeeding journey. One of the biggest things I took away from this experience is how powerful it is when women come together to support one another. Angelika didn't just help me with breastfeeding, she helped me feel seen, empowered, and less alone. I will always be grateful for her kindness and support.
— Vanessa Lopez, review of Angelika Cuevas
I completed a one on one CBE with Angelika recently and I must say she was very knowledgeable and thorough in not just the biological process, but about the emotional and mental support that I didn’t know I needed. It is such a vulnerable time for mothers and I highly recommend it to women looking for this kind of care.
— Abigail D., review of Angelika Cuevas
As a first-time mom with a newborn waking every 2–3 hours, I was completely exhausted—until Jasmine came into our lives. She was calm, professional, and incredibly nurturing. Thanks to her overnight care, I was finally able to get some real rest knowing my baby was in the best hands. She also offered so much helpful guidance and support without judgment. Jasmine was incredibly attentive, respectful of our routines and preferences, and always kept us informed of how the night went. We cannot recommend her enough to any parents looking for expert support and compassionate care during such a vulnerable and beautiful time.

What is a midwife?
A midwife is a licensed medical professional who cares for low-risk pregnancies and mothers who want no-to-low intervention deliveries (e.g., home birth, birthing center delivery, water birth).
Can you pay for a midwife with HSA or FSA funds in Las Cruces, NM?
Yes, you can use Health Savings Account (HSA) or Flexible Spending Account (FSA) funds to pay for midwifery services, as long as those services are related to medical care. Always check the specific rules of your HSA or FSA plan, as there can be variations in what expenses are considered eligible between different plans.
Are midwives covered by insurance in Las Cruces, NM?
New Mexico Medicaid covers care provided by certified nurse-midwives in Las Cruces because this is a required Medicaid benefit across the country. Reimbursement includes CNM-led prenatal visits, delivery, and postpartum care. Coverage for licensed or certified professional midwives at home or in birth centers differs among plans and does not apply to every member; options are also limited, with two midwives listed within 60 miles. Private insurance coverage depends on the individual policy and provider network.
What's the difference between a midwife and a doula?
A midwife is a trained health professional who helps women during labor, delivery, and after the birth of their babies. Midwives can provide gynecological examinations, prenatal care, and postpartum support. They are qualified to deliver babies and are trained to handle certain complications during childbirth. A doula, on the other hand, is a non-medical professional who provides emotional, physical, and educational support to a mother who is expecting, is experiencing labor, or has recently given birth. The doula's role is to help women have a safe, memorable, and empowering birthing experience. They are known for their continuous support, beginning during pregnancy and lasting through the postpartum period. While midwives have a broad scope of practice that is clinical in nature, doulas specialize in the non-clinical aspects of care. They might be preferred by mothers who are looking for continuous bedside support that is not typically provided by the medical staff. Doulas are known for their advocacy for the mother's wishes during childbirth, which can be especially valuable in hospital settings where the mother may desire a birth plan that deviates from standard procedures.
What's the difference between a midwife and an OBGYN?
A midwife is a healthcare professional who specializes in low-risk pregnancies, childbirth, and postpartum care. They typically emphasize a natural and holistic approach, focusing on minimal medical interventions. Midwives often work in birth centers, at home births, or in hospitals, depending on their certification and location. They provide personalized care and support throughout pregnancy and labor and may also assist with breastfeeding and newborn care. An OBGYN is a medical doctor who has completed extensive training, including medical school and a residency, specializing in obstetrics and gynecology. They care for all types of pregnancies, including high-risk cases, and are trained to handle medical complications, perform surgeries (like C-sections), and provide comprehensive reproductive healthcare beyond pregnancy. OBGYNs typically work in hospitals or clinics and can manage a broader range of medical situations.
Can I see a midwife for an IVF pregnancy?
Yes, you can see a midwife for an IVF pregnancy. Midwives are trained to provide care during pregnancy, including for those conceived through IVF, as long as the pregnancy is low-risk. They can help with prenatal care, labor, and delivery, and provide postpartum support. However, if your IVF pregnancy is considered high-risk or involves complications, you may need to work with an obstetrician in collaboration with the midwife to ensure proper care. Always consult with your healthcare provider to determine the best care plan for your situation.
