I entered the world of birth work in 2016, and have been focused on expanding my skill set to better support families ever since. I became licensed in California in 2023, and plan to continue pursuing a deeper knowledge of birth as I serve my community. I gave birth to my son in June of 2023, and am deeply thankful for the gift of motherhood and the ability to care for my child. After supporting so many families in bringing their little ones into the world, I am still in awe of the transformative power of birth. I hope that through my care, I can support and encourage more families to expand their hearts and perspectives as they welcome new souls into their lives. In addition to standard reproductive care, I am also passionate about offering whole-person care, which refers to healing a person’s body, mind, and spirit as a whole unit. I believe that through this perspective, I am able to offer a truly individualized experience which supports a person’s healing and growth on a deeper level. I also hold a deep trust and admiration for my own intuition, which I find is my greatest tool in finding better ways to show up for my clients. By listening to my own inner voice as a healer AND teaching my clients to do the same, I hope to provide a deeper and more complete level of care.

EM BLENDS HOLISTIC MODALITIES, ANCESTRAL NOURISHMENT, INTUITIVE CARE AND EVIDENCE-BASED SUPPORT. SHE BELIEVES THAT BIRTH AND THE TRANSITION INTO MOTHERHOD ARE BOTH PHYSIOLOGICAL AND SACRED, A RITE OF PASSAGE DESERVING REVERENCE AND FLOW, NOT INTERVENTION OR DISRUPTION.

THOUGH SHE CARRIES THE TRUTH OF DUALITY WITH HER, FINDING MEANING IN THE REFLECTION THAT HAD HER MOTHER'S STORY BEEN DIFFERENT, SHE MIGHT NOT HAVE FELT HER DESTINY CALLING, DEVELOPING THE PASSION THAT FEELS AS THOUGH IT RUNS THROUGH HER VEINS, TODAY. SHE SUPPORTS BIRTH AND THE FOURTH TRIMESTER SAFELY AND INTUITIVELY, ALLOWING IT TO UNFOLD ORGANICALLY, SHE'LL SIT WITH AND HOLD YOU IN THE BEAUTIFUL MESSINESS, MATCHING THE ENERGY NEEDED FOR EACH MOTHER'S UNIQUE EXPERIENCE. A WOMAN OF ATTENTION AND INTENTION - HER SUPERPOWER IS BEING IN SERVICE TO OTHERS.

Her passion for Birth Work began in 2020 when she got pregnant with her daughter Kailani.

Yose completed her Birth Worker training with Bebo Mia Inc when her daughter was only 3 months old. After the training she realized that she wanted to take a more ancestral approach in birth work, and began learning about Mexican Birth and Postpartum Traditions.

Hello! I’m Joselyn, a proud mom who chose home births for my two little ones. Let's look back at my life before motherhood when the idea of childbirth intimidated me more than anything, thanks to all those stories and dramatic TV shows with women screaming their heads off in the delivery room. When I became pregnant with my daughter back in 2020, I dove into research, preparing my mind, body, and spirit for a positive birth—but I completely overlooked planning for postpartum and felt quite overwhelmed. Wanting to enhance my skills, I completed a 112-hour training with Bebo Mia Inc. and became certified with Pro Doula to become a full-spectrum doula. My journey also led me to explore the rich traditions of Mexican indigenous birth and postpartum practices, allowing me to honor my heritage while expanding my knowledge.
