meet Faith

Faith is known for giving detailed, dedicated and loving care, tailored to each client’s specific needs and desires. She is passionate about all areas of access and equity in healthcare, not only for clients and families, but also for fellow midwives, and is heavily involved in uplifting and improving the deeply imbedded biases and disparities that plague the medical and birthing community at large. 

Faith is from Oklahoma, and served as Education Director and Board member for the Midwives Society of Oklahoma over a period of several years, where she also helped lead statewide grassroots efforts, along with rallying midwives, to ensure proper legislation and bills, and preventing against restrictive and prejudiced laws around midwifery care access. 

After moving to LA in 2018, Faith was also one of the founding members of the BIPOC, LGBTQ+ and Ally’s Midwife Peer Group in Los Angeles, and regularly attends rallies, events, and panels in support of multiple social justice causes including racism and bias in health care, equity in birth access, and LGBTQ+ rights.

Faith is known for her passion in training resident midwives, and is consistently expanding the birthing community by graduating many skilled Licensed Midwife providers over her years of practice.


QUALIFICATIONS AND TRAINING


Faith studied Midwifery with the Texas Midwives Training Program from 2003-2006, completing their academic syllabus, while clinically training in both home birth and birth center practices, with a total of fourteen midwife preceptors. She then chose to expand her experience with an additional out-of-hospital birth residency in Israel with Ilana Shemish CNM, as well as in-hospital Labor and Delivery and Newborn mentorships at both Becor Holim and Shaare Zedik Hospitals in Jerusalem. 

Faith is nationally certified through the North American Registry of Midwives (NARM) as a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM), and holds a state license in California as a Licensed Midwife (LM). 

Faith's story

Faith is originally from Oklahoma, where she was raised on a homestead, the oldest of 10 children, with most of her siblings being delivered at home by midwives. For many years Faith practiced midwifery in Oklahoma and the surrounding states including Texas, Kansas, Arkansas and Missouri. Faith has also traveled internationally to deliver babies as well.

In December, 2017, Faith experienced birth for the first time from "the other side" when she delivered her own daughter, Kisstance Foxx, at home under the care of midwives. 

In August, 2018 Faith and Kiss moved to Los Angeles, California. They live in DTLA, a few blocks from Mind Body Birth Center, and enjoy biking to the park, dancing in pjs, live music, and lazy days at the beach.
