Midwifery Services and Lactation Consulting

Are you expect­ing a baby? Wel­come your lit­tle one with warmth, wis­dom, and calm, evidence‑based care with mid­wife Hannah.

Han­nah has sup­port­ed hun­dreds of fam­i­lies in hav­ing the births they hope for, offer­ing safe, nat­ur­al options ground­ed in both expe­ri­ence and sci­ence. As a Cer­ti­fied Pro­fes­sion­al Mid­wife (CPM) licensed in Illi­nois and Indi­ana and an Inter­na­tion­al Board Cer­ti­fied Lac­ta­tion Con­sul­tant (IBCLC), she serves cen­tral and east cen­tral Illi­nois as well as Indi­ana with com­pre­hen­sive, family‑centered care.

With a Master’s Degree in Mol­e­c­u­lar and Cel­lu­lar Biol­o­gy from the Uni­ver­si­ty of Illi­nois at Urbana‑Champaign (UIUC), Hannah’s grad­u­ate work focused on how diet and nutri­tion shape preg­nan­cy, babies, and even future gen­er­a­tions. This back­ground informs her holis­tic approach to pre­na­tal, birth, and post­par­tum care.

Han­nah offers com­pas­sion­ate, per­son­al­ized care through every step of your journey—prenatal vis­its, labor and birth sup­port, and post­par­tum and lac­ta­tion care—so you nev­er have to nav­i­gate this sea­son alone.

She believes birth is more than some­thing to “get through.” It is a pow­er­ful rite of pas­sage that deserves to be hon­ored, not med­ical­ized by default. While she col­lab­o­rates close­ly with physi­cians and oth­er health­care pro­fes­sion­als when need­ed, Han­nah sees preg­nan­cy and birth as nor­mal life events for which our bod­ies are beau­ti­ful­ly designed.

As a mom of four, a Cer­ti­fied Pro­fes­sion­al Mid­wife, and an IBCLC, Han­nah brings both pro­fes­sion­al exper­tise and lived expe­ri­ence to her clients. She main­tains cur­rent cer­ti­fi­ca­tion in CPR and Neona­tal Resus­ci­ta­tion (NRP) and has pre­vi­ous­ly been cer­ti­fied as a birth doula through DONA and Madriel­la. Her rig­or­ous train­ing and col­lab­o­ra­tive prac­tice stan­dards qual­i­fy her to safe­ly attend nor­mal, low‑risk births at home, offer­ing an inti­mate, sup­port­ed alter­na­tive to the tra­di­tion­al hos­pi­tal setting.

Hannah is an IBCLC and La Leche League group leader and can help address your questions and point you to answers.
