Client Testimonials

Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is about making mothers--strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength.

I highly recommend Joey! Joey didn't deliver our daughter however she provided amazing Co-Care while we doctored at our local clinic. She met with us several times to answer all of our questions, check on baby and prepare us for our first child. She is highly knowledgeable and guided us through each step of our pregnancy as well as post pregnancy care. She was always there for me to text or call at anytime and we continue to stay in touch! Our daughter is now two years old and I still contact Joey from time to time with questions about my kiddo's needs. We really appreciated all of her guidance from a hands on birthing class, healthier alternatives for prenatal and other vitamins, reading materials, lactation support, to what "normal tests or procedures doctors perform" are actually optional and safer options to the tests you want done. We are going to miss Joey!

Clare H. - 2023

I highly recommend Joey. We had 3 wonderful deliveries with her. She respects her patients wishes and does her best to meet their goals for their birth.

You can tell she has a definite passion for mom's and their babies. And goes above and beyond to make sure that everyone is well taken care of.

With our second baby with her, she was a few weeks old and developed a fever in the middle of the night Joey was ready and willing to help us through the whole situation even though it was 2 in the morning. That's just one example of how she's went above and beyond with all 3 of our Births with her.

I can't express enough how grateful I am for the incredible care provided by Joey and her team. From the beginning, she offered support, going above and beyond by making herself available for calls, even during moments when I needed someone to talk to about my mental well-being. This level of accessibility is something you wouldn't typically find in a hospital setting.

What truly sets her apart is the extensive education she provided throughout my pregnancy and postpartum journey. I felt informed every step of the way. My labor this time was beautiful, walking and laughing at 7 cm in my neighborhood under the full moon. When it was show time, Joey and her assistant did an amazing job in taking care of me to ensure I was comfortable physically and mentally. When things changed, Joey knew what to do to quickly resolve the issue, keep me calm during it and made sure baby and I were both safe. The personalized and holistic approach made a significant difference in my overall experience.

Joey was our midwife for our first! We were very lucky to find her early on in our pregnancy and to fit into her busy schedule! Every prenatal appointment was personal and took as long as it needed(sometimes we just talked for quite sometime) with mine and my partners busy lives she was very flexible with making appointments. When i fell sick with a cold I couldn’t shake in the middle of my pregnancy she brought out some tea, ordered 1 gal of raw honey and stopped out for an extra visit ! She was very supportive and educational about our decisions and making decisions! The birth was fantastic and very smooth going. Come to postpartum she was very educational, soothing and just there with you while you transitioned into a mom. Postpartum appointments were simple and overviewing! At the end of her journey with you, she becomes more than a midwife! If we ever have another Joey will be my first call anyone will be very lucky to have her as a midwife!

Joey is an absolutely amazing Midwife. Joey is very knowledgeable, caring, compassionate, and understanding. I've wanted to have a home birth with all my children but with my history of postpartum hemorrhaging my husband and I were very hesitant. During our first meeting with Joey she put our minds at ease and educated us like no other provider ever had. We knew she was THE one for us in this amazing journey in welcoming our seventh baby. Joey and her team welcomed my family and I with welcoming arms, Not once did I feel rushed nor that my kids were a bother. Our kids absolutely love Joey and her team . If I have any regrets is not having Joey as my midwife for all my other babies. I 1000% recommend Birthing Miracles for your pregnancy journey, you will not regret it.

Maria also shared these words on Facebook and linked to this important video about being overlooked in the medical system: Having the right care is everything...my midwife Joey: thank you for being the awesome, educated, strong person you are. Postpartum hemorrhaging was a fear [of mine] and you controlled it. [I developed] an infection that almost made me septic weeks after birth; you knew what to do. If it wasn't for you, I probably wouldn't be here.

Erin M. - 2022

I came to Joey a bit late in my pregnancy because I wasn't feeling very comfortable w the prior care I had been receiving. In my first phone call w her was given more info in 15 mins, than I had in all the time in my care prior. After meeting w her, I was absolutely going to be having my baby with her.
She put me at ease and was very informative and was very comfortable to talk to. She always got back to me almost immediately if she wasn't able to answer my calls right away. My birth went smoothly and she did a wonderful job making me and my husband comfortable (which says alot for him, everything to do w birth stresses him out)!!! The birthing center is lovely.
My three yr old absolutely adores her as well and calls her his best friend. He was there for visits and the birth also. I think that being so involved helped him adjust to sharing me w his new brother.
If I was having more babies I would be back to have them with her! I am so grateful I found her when I did, and wish I had been working w her from the beginning!

When my husband and I first met Joey, we had already been going to an OBGYN and had already planned to give birth in a hospital. We got word that she was accepting one last client for February so we called to take a tour of her birth center. On the drive over we talked about keeping an open mind and deciding what would be the most important quality to us in a midwife. It was trust. Not only did we feel comfortable, welcomed and in great care with Joey from the beginning but she sent us home with supplements, tea, books, information and a huge smile on our faces. We had found someone very special we trusted to be on our team. I think what I enjoyed most about her care was that she actually wanted to get to know us, she never timed our appointments or rushed us. My husband and I were so lucky to have the pleasure of having her care and friendship and she soon became someone very special in our lives. We love you Joey!!

Joey goes over and above for her clients. She is flexible and understanding with tons of compassion! She helps research and educate on concerns or procedures done and can compare to conventional care. She LISTENS to her clients through and through. She has also chosen great team members to assist birth! The birth center is so warming and comforting it’s like you are home.

Andrea P. - 2021

After my 28 week appointment with my OB's office, I was not feeling supported with my goal to have a natural birth and was also not feeling respected with the decisions I was making for my pregnancy, so I started searching for a new care provider so I could have an out of hospital birth. That’s when I found Joey & Birthing Miracles. From my first phone call with Joey, I knew I had found a perfect fit! So at 30 weeks pregnant I switched my care to her birth center and it was the best decision I made!

Through the rest of my pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey, she made me feel empowered and respected! She always offered truly informed consent with every decision that needed to be made and allowed me to make the best choice for myself and our baby with no judgement. She provided me with all the tools to mentally prep for my unmedicated birth and taught my husband ways to support me also.

Throughout all the pain, vomiting, and tears during labor, she did and said all the right things to keep me going even when I was starting to doubt myself! I can proudly say, I got the unmedicated birth I was wanting!

One thing I loved most about working with Joey is she came to our house for my prenatal appointments. Not only did she check on my health and the baby, but she also educated me on breastfeeding, how to prepare for baby, and most importantly gave me tools to help mentally prep for my birth. After my daughter was born, she continued these in home visits once a week for 6 weeks! I loved having all the support and positive encouragement she offered!

I can’t even put into words how incredible my experience with the Birthing Miracles team has been. If you want personalized, knowledgeable, and compassionate care and an empowered birth experience, this is it! Joey goes above and beyond for her families before, during and after the birth experience, educating and providing unconditional support. She well informed and prepared for anything thrown at her. I had an unexpected transfer during my birth but that didn’t stop Joey from being my advocate and never leaving my side. It’s rare to find someone you trust 100% to seek care for not only yourself, but your children. We will without a doubt be going back for our next birth!

Swati A. - 2021

I am so grateful I had the support of Birthing Miracles during my pregnancy. Especially planning to give birth during Covid times was overwhelming but the virtual calls with Joey put me at ease and I felt empowered with Joey’s loving support and wisdom going into my delivery. I felt assured that my delivery was going to go well and it did! I gave birth to a beautiful healthy baby boy and so grateful for my experience with Joey at Birthing Miracles!

Allison H. - 2021

Joey and her team were a part of our support system for the home birth of our youngest daughter. Working with a midwife and having a home birth was not our original plan, but due to COVID-19, we considered other birth options, and I’m so glad we did! This is our third child -the first two were born in a hospital- and this has been, by far, the BEST birth and postpartum experience. The care I received during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum was personal, thoughtful, and empowering. I felt like I was in control, but I always felt comfortable to ask any question. Joey also went above and beyond to include our older children during prenatal visits and the birth. It was truly a family experience and for that, I am so thankful! Thank you, Birthing Miracles ♥️

Joey and her team are absolutely wonderful. My labor was beautiful and I felt very supported. After some time I was having some complications and wanted pain relief— Joey was understanding and supportive of all my decisions. Not only does she help you to have the labor and delivery that YOU want, she’s amazing with prenatal and postpartum care. I love her and her team and will hopefully be using Birthing Miracles again one day.
