Jill holds a very special place in my heart. She was integral to the birth of both my children. The process of bearing a child is no small thing; it is a crucible of pain with the most precious gift emerging at the end. But in the middle of the fire and pressure and uncertainty, you hold on tightly to your guide and a unique bond is forged. Jill's knowledgeable presence was calming, kind, loving, assuring, and grounding. She labored with me every step of the way, shouldering a portion of my burden for me. I cannot speak highly enough about this exceptional woman. She was created to be a midwife. It is not only her profession and passion; it is her ministry. A giver to her very core, it is Jill's honor to walk alongside women during this beautiful process of pregnancy and child birth. Amber, mama

From the time I met Jill, I realized what a heart she had for birth. I loved attending a birth, a third time Mom for me, when she was there as the " catcher" while working on the final stages of her training. I think that Jill will build a fabulous midwifery practice in Atlanta. She encompasses everything to be absolutely wonderful. She is passionate, caring, loving and diligent. Teresa H, doula

In life, certain people are called to certain careers. Without a doubt, Jill is seeking to fulfill her calling as a midwife because she definitely has a natural gift and talent for it. When you first meet Jill, she makes you feel welcomed, seen, and cared for. As you get to know her, it’s apparent that she cares fiercely for her mamas and their babies. Not just the unborn babies, but also the siblings. I have two older boys and Jill was always so patient and loving towards them as well - letting them assist her at the various prenatal visits and even during the birth process. In addition to having a knack for making moms feel comfortable and cared for, Jill also knows her stuff and she has a natural way of making the birth mom feel calm during the labor and delivery process. Afterwards, she really focuses on the care of the mother as well as newborn baby. She makes sure other family members recognize the needs of the mother as well which is a true blessing and gives the mother the chance to enjoy her new baby without worrying about all the other tasks that need to be completed. Anyone who has Jill for a midwife, should consider themselves incredibly fortunate and lucky. Rest easy knowing that you and your baby are in. amazing hands!!

“Jill was like a fairy godmother to me, not only at birth but through the whole process. Her gentle but firm energy made me trust her very easily, and with that trust I could calm myself to feel confident. I am most grateful for how well she connected with my two older kids. It was very important to me that my kids were included in the whole birth process, and Jill made sure that they were feeling safe and supported the whole time. She enriched my home birth experience above and beyond my expectations. I love her!”

Jill attended my 3rd homebirth this past January (2023) and couldnt have been more impressed. Jill was professional. knowledgeable. calm. gentle. soothing. positive. and determined. She was evervthing needed durino this birth - and I feel confidently that she embodies all the qualities in a support person many women need by their side during birth. It's clear that being a midwife is what Jill is intended to do in life. She fits the role seamlessly and has a clear passion for supporting women bringing babies into the world. It's so important for a woman giving birth to fully trust their midwife so they can let go of that plece and focus on labor. Jill made that easy and I'm so glad I was able to experience this birth with Jill. I know she will be a brilliant addition to your program and I can't wait to see all the babies Jill helps bring into the world!
