Midwives are trained through a combination of textbook knowledge and real world application by apprenticeship.
I enjoy the privilege of being the preceptor to midwifery students in Texas. In this role I provide both real world
education and classroom instruction and clinicals according to the
Department of Sate Health Services licensing Standards.
Meet our Apprentices!

My name is Kathaleen May. My husband, Paul, and I are the proud parents of 9 children (5 girls, 4 boys, ages 30-10) and at this time grandparents of 4 grandchildren.
I am so happy to finally be on my journey to being a midwife after knowing for 14 years that was what I wanted to do. I have had many experiences with birthing from emergency C-sections to a wonderful home birth!
Having long been an advocate for women being educated about birth and their options and being allowed to be in control of their births as much as possible, I became a doula. After seeing many hospital births (where medical personnel usually have NO idea what to do at a natural, drug-free birth) I knew my heart was with midwifery and home birth, where women are empowered and responsible and allow their bodies to do what they were made to do in birth.
I am excited to be on this journey to becoming a midwife provider to the awesome, strong women of our community.

Bonnie has a small midwifery practice. She takes the training of her apprentices seriously therefore she limits the number of apprentices in her practice. This affords the apprentice the one on one instruction of a dedicated preceptor and our mothers the best of care.
