Meet the Team
Linda Weaver, licensed midwife was introduced to the idea of midwifery while pregnant with her second child. She had given birth in a hospital the first time and felt very out of control. She allowed a physician to induce her, and was given medication against her wishes and had labored in an overflow room with only a curtain separating her from the other laboring women. She knew she wanted a different experience second time around. A friend introduced her to her midwife and she was hooked on natural birth at home with a midwife. The idea of laboring at home seemed so natural to her. She could use her own linens, dress in her own clothes, and choose who would be attending. After the birth, her daughter could see her newborn sibling right away. She could sleep in my own bed. She decided to study midwifery when her children were in high school. It was in her heart and soul. She loves serving other women and helping them achieve the birth of their dreams. She have been licensed since 2001 and have attended over 1000 births.
Amy Bixby, I began my apprenticeship in March, 1996. After a leave of absence while traveling abroad, I resumed my apprenticeship in Greenville, SC under the sponsorship of the midwife who had delivered my brother thirteen years before. During that time, I met Linda Weaver (also an apprentice.) We so enjoyed working together that shortly after she licensed, we began working as a team. We have continued to work together since my licensure in November of 2004. Linda and I share the same values, ethics, and philosophies of birth. We work well as a team, and enjoy ministering to women together. We also enjoy the many benefits of having more than one licensed midwife as part of the birth team. Not only do we benefit, but I feel that there are many benefits to the expectant parents as well. Through the years, I have had the privilege of delivering some of my nieces and nephews, and the children of many of my friends. I LOVE watching “my” babies as they grown, and one or our greatest pleasures is working with the same families over and over again. I am on #6 in several families. Amy C Bixby, LM, CLC
