Meet the Midwives of California

CNMA believes that every family deserves a midwife.

Welcome to CNMA's meet the midwives page!

California is lucky to have legal practice for Licensed Midwives and Certified Nurse-Midwives, and our meet the midwives project celebrates both!

You can learn more about midwifery care on our website as well as the difference in licensing between CNMs and LMs here!
