🌿 Meet Juanita

Juanita Ahuehuetzin is a Partera Mexicana, a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM) with over a decade of experience supporting families through pregnancy, birth, and postpartum. Their approach blends ancestral practices, clinical midwifery, and deep cultural reverence—offering grounded, heart-centered care rooted in equity and reproductive justice.

Juanita is a 2024 graduate of Southwest Wisconsin Technical College with a degree in Direct Entry Midwifery and is certified by the North American Registry of Midwives (NARM). She has supported families across Illinois, Wisconsin, and the Texas borderlands, weaving together evidence-based skills with traditions passed down through generations.

In addition to midwifery, Juanita is a Licensed Massage Therapist (LMT), Spinning Babies® Certified Parent Educator and Aware Practitioner, craniosacral therapist, and Yoni Steam Facilitator. She holds a BA in Cultural Anthropology and brings a wealth of knowledge in breech balancing, childbirth education, and body-centered care. As a dedicated keeper of cuarentena traditions, Juanita offers postpartum care rooted in ritual, nourishment, and holistic healing.

Her practice centers the emotional, physical, and spiritual well-being of each client—fostering autonomy, shared decision-making, and trust in the body’s wisdom.

When not attending births or offering healing work, Juanita enjoys spending time with her four children, tending her garden and houseplants, hiking, and reading.

Our Guiding Values

Cultural Humility

We honor and integrate the cultural traditions, customs, and practices of each family, ensuring care is rooted in respect for their heritage.

Holistic Care

We view birth as a natural, sacred process that encompasses the physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being of the mother, child, and family

Empowerment

We believe in empowering families through education, choice, and autonomy, providing the tools and support needed for informed decisions during pregnancy and birth.

Community-Centered

Our practice is deeply committed to the needs of the community, particularly underserved and marginalized populations, offering accessible and inclusive care.

Generational Healing

We uphold the belief that the care we provide today influences the health and well-being of future generations, fostering a legacy of healing and growth.

Compassionate Support

We provide compassionate, non-judgmental, and continuous support through every stage of pregnancy, birth, and postpartum, ensuring families feel nurtured and cared for.

Ancestral Wisdom

We view birth as a natural, sacred process that honors the physical, emotional, and spiritual well-being of the mother, baby, and family.
