Alyssa founded Aurora Midwifery in 2017. She is dedicated to midwifery work because she knows how your confidence is directly affected by your pregnancy, birth and postpartum experiences. She provides education and care because you deserve to know you have options and be empowered to make the decisions that are best for you and your child. 

She believes fiercely in supporting other midwives so that this important work can be sustainable. Building a team of midwives was important to her in providing the best care from rested, balanced, and supported midwives. She believes multiple minds and hearts taking care of families are better than one. 

Alyssa's Story:
When I was a teacher one of my students looked at my pregnant belly and said, “My mom had my brother in a hot tub!” Shocked yet intrigued I got to know her mom who was a doula and a childbirth education teacher. I became immersed in home birth stories  and was surprised that birth could look peaceful, calm, cozy, and  homey. I then questioned why I would want to labor and give birth in a sterile hospital with machines beeping and tubes everywhere if I could stay home.  I took her HypnoBirthing classes which completely transformed my mindset around birth and what it can be. The only birth options I knew were of what  society portrayed, which was as a scary emergency and it usually does not need to be that.  

So I had a  home birth with my son and it was beautiful. It was hard work, but peaceful, supported, and calm. I felt so amazing and strong and it affected how I viewed myself as a woman. I didn’t know I could tap into so much raw power. I was proud for following my heart and going against the grain to do what felt right.  I was no longer afraid to follow my instincts regarding any circumstance. Choosing to birth at home was the most empowering thing I had done. And learning to trust my body and my instincts changed me completely.

It revealed to me why birth is so sacred... it’s a becoming.


Alyssa became a doula & HypnoBirthing instructor in 2012 and has been a midwife since 2017. Before that she earned a Bachelor's in Education and a Masters in Education in Curriculum and Development, serving for 10 years as an early child hood educator and curriculum developer.
