Jacksonville Community Midwives is a midwife team serving Clay, Duval and the surrounding counties in the Northeast Florida region. Jennifer Stone (LM, CPM, LPN, CLC) and Jacinda Golden (LM, CPM) have both served women and the birth process in numerous ways throughout their careers, uniting in 2019 to create their practice.
Ultimately, this duo is determined to give women space to be “the boss of their birth.” Jacinda captures this mission with her abounding energy and focus on every mother having the birth they envision. From listening to women as they labor to catching babies when moms are on the move, there is no situation unfamiliar or too awkward for this midwife team. Jacinda shares invaluable insight in this episode, the compassion is apparent and it’s no wonder they are a thriving practice. We dig into who is having home births now, the cost of midwives, ideas for a registry--like a doula, which Jacinda calls “essential” for a birth team--and much more.
Her most essential advice? Be informed, know your options and realize you do not need to justify what's right for you, your body, your baby and your family with anyone.
