Meet the Midwife

 

Hello! I am Joselle McReynolds. I am a Certified Professional Midwife who graduated from the National College of Midwifery.  I am licensed by the Medical Board of California as a Licensed Midwife.  I trained in California, Wisconsin, and Illinois.  Even though moving and living in three different states was not the easiest task, I appreciate the wonderful experience I received by learning in different settings and getting to know families both in the country and city from different walks of life. I also appreciate the wonderful midwives that imparted their knowledge and expertise to me. 

I believe all women, regardless of their background, deserve to be treated with respect and care.  Thus, I named my practice Friends and Family Midwifery, where all are treated as friends and family.

I am also a Registered Nurse who graduated from Loma Linda University.  I worked as Pediatric Nurse in different levels of care.  I have worked as a charge nurse at an outpatient pediatric clinic and a floor nurse in the pediatric unit in Arrowhead Regional Medical Center in Colton, CA.  I spent 4 years as a charge nurse at a sub-acute pediatric facility in Loma Linda, CA. I am NRP, CPR and BEST certified.

I have three beautiful daughters all born at home. I enjoy running, playing tennis and taking my children to the park.

“When Joselle arrived at my home for the birth of my daughter; I instantly felt safe. I remember thinking, "Thank goodness she's here. I can do this now." She was just the perfect amount of support. During each prenatal visit I was more and more confident Joselle really knew what she was doing, while she's not the least bit cocky or reminiscent of an OB/GYN telling you what to do at all. It was so amazing to birth with help from someone who I actually trusted. I wish every birthing woman could have the same experience.”
