Cindy Foxfoot
Licensed Midwife
My homebirth practice was
established
in 2001 here in Nevada County and my experience includes 400 births,
and countless prenatal and postpartum visits.
After completing my B.A.
Degree at the
University of California at Davis, I studied for and received my
license from the California Medial Board. Preparation for my
license included a Certificate of Completion from the Seattle Midwifery
School, fulfilling the requirements of the "credit by examination"
provision of California's Licensed Midwifery Practice Act and
Completing an internship with Casa de Nacimiento, one of the busiest
birth clinics in El Paso, Texas. During that three month
internship I attended 110 births. I also completed an
apprenticeship with Alison Osborn, a well reconignzed and highly
respected midwife in California, and than continued on as her partner
from 1993 until 2003 when I established my independent practice here in
Nevada County.
I am a member of
the California
Association of Midwives and have served as a regional
representative on their Board of Directors and I am always
furthering my education through annual continuing education credits.
I network with Midwives throughout the state and country and
collaborate with other local midwives here in Nevada County.
I have enjoyed and value
my experience
as a midwife, working with so many families. I feel blessed
to do
such incredible work and to have birthed and raised my own two
daughters, Iris and Skyla.
