Get to know Emi

"Midwifery safeguards womxn. It is a professional lifestyle that holds a space to honor the birth of a family. Yes, babies are born, but so are mothers, fathers, grandparents, brothers, sisters, aunts, and uncles. Pregnancy and birth are monumental moments and I am blessed to be a part of these experiences”

- Farrah Ka'healani Rivera, Journey Midwife Services colleague

"Journey Midwife is an incredible, affirming, and intentional practice of home birth midwives who are dedicated to client-centered, equitable care. We’ve birthed both our babies under their care and are at a loss for words for all the ways Emi provides physical, emotional, and energetic care for birthing people and their support team.

Journey Midwife is embodying the work of reproductive justice and doing essential healing work around pregnancy, birth and postpartum!"
