This year's recipient of the Christmas Crawl fundraiser is The Village Prenatal Clinic.

Heather is the founder of The Village Prenatal Clinic and has been a Certified Nurse Midwife for 9 years. Since she was young, she felt the call to midwifery and can’t remember a time that she wasn’t drawn to support mothers and babies. Her passion is to provide professional, holistic, empowering, woman-centered care from conception through postpartum. She values and listens to her clients and provides respectful care that is personalized to each mother. The part about her role as a midwife that she loves the most is knowing her clients well enough to give them support mentally, emotionally and spiritually - not just addressing their physical health. She also acknowledges that various challenges pregnant mothers can face and desires to connect them with community support and resources to help them thrive.
