Your Team

Hey, We’re Your Nest

We are so fortunate to live in a community full of so many excellent midwives! This community is booming and we are excited to add our own flavor. After spending the last couple of years in a large practice, it was time to plant my feet, get back to my roots and really decide what kind of midwife I would like to be. A slow paced, in-home practice is where my heart is at. We would like to maintain a slower pace to prioritize longer appointments, attention to detail and the kind of connection that we just can’t help but get excited when the phone rings and it’s YOU!

Hello and thank you for reading about us!

I’m Krysta. I’ve been loving midwifery since my own pregnancy in 2011. Late in my gestation, I realized I was looking for more education and connection with my growing baby and my providers. I switched care from an OB’s office to a lovely group of midwives at 8 months pregnant and never looked at the world the same again. The knowledge, support and friendships I gained in that short time fueled my midwifery fire.
From then on I could not stop learning about safe, connected pregnancy care. Gaining training and experience from the best midwives in our area, I became licensed in 2017 after 5 years of attending births.
I have experience in large and small practice settings and know in my bones a small intimate midwifery practice is where I am meant to be.
This allows for close client/midwife relationships and allows me to stay an active part in my family of 5. Kayla our oldest (19) is a collegiate volleyball player and joy to be around. Emma (17) is nearly ready to graduate and change this world. Alaina (10) is a young business owner and lover of most things. Together, with my husband, Doug, we adventure in our local lakes and rivers and enjoy being movie buffs.
I look forward to meeting you and your families and continuing to learn, love and serve our local communities.
