CIHUAPAHTLI MIDWIFERY (NEW YORK and NEW JERSEY)

MY MIDWIFERY PHILOSOPHY OF CARE

Cihuapahtli Midwifery, home birth practice of Dra. T’Karima Ticitl, PhD, LM, CM, Partera licensed in both New York and New Jersey. As a midwife, I believe in supporting childbearing women and people in their healthy pregnancies and assisting them in labor, birth, and in the postpartum period. I fully believe in supporting all life givers rights to make decisions about their bodies and to choose the birth they want. My beliefs are rooted in my Xicana/Mexica/Wixarika Indigenous traditions and philosophy, as well as in normal physiologic labor and birth. Childbirth has always been and continues to be a sacred ceremonial moment and I respect it that way, forever, birth as a ceremony.
