Kayla Harajli

Kayla loved growing up in rural, central Iowa. During high school, she spent time in Sierra Leone, West Africa where her parents started a ministry. While there, she was introduced to the devastating reality of gaps in maternal and infant healthcare.  Even at a young age, she knew that she wanted to have a part in improving health outcomes for women.  Kayla became a registered nurse (RN) and then a Certified Professional Midwife (CPM).  In 2012, She returned to Sierra Leone and served as a midwife for six years. She has had the privilege to serve thousands of women and attend hundreds of births over the course of her career. 

In 2018, she settled back in central Iowa and worked alongside home birth midwives while completing her education as a Certified Nurse Midwife (CNM).  

She's excited to be back in Iowa and use her love of midwifery and experience in women's care to serve the women and families in her home State! 

Outside of being a midwife, Kayla spends most of her time with her family.  She has four beautiful children. She loves to cook, garden, spend time outdoors and travel. 

Megan is a registered nurse (RN), mama to four amazing children, and loves serving her church family alongside her husband. 

Megan has been passionate about mamas and babies for as long as she can remember! She has been involved in birth work in Des Moines, Iowa since 2019, working alongside midwives as a birth assistant and as a doula in her own private practice. 

In her free time, she enjoys reading, watching good movies, going on walks, and spending time with her family. 

Sarah’s love of birth goes back to her days of nursing school where she spent her preceptorship on a Labor and Delivery floor at a small hospital. Out of school, Sarah explored other areas of nursing, but after her own pregnancy and the birth of her first son, she felt on fire with a passion for educating, empowering, and supporting women through pregnancy, birth, and motherhood. 

Sarah has been a registered nurse since 2009 and she has had the joy of working in the birthing community since 2018 including at Broadlawns Family Birthing Center, as a birth assistant for community midwives, and through nutrition support within her own business at Whole Momma Nutrition. 

Sarah’s passion for educating, empowering, and supporting mothers stems from her own life experiences. She has had the opportunity to further her education to include a Bachelors in Nursing, Nutrition Therapy Master, Certified Lactation Specialist, Professional Doula, and a Restorative Wellness Practitioner.  She has had the honor of supporting many women through the miracle of birth.  

During her free time, Sarah homeschools her four boys (Dreyer 5, Danger 3, Dekker 2, and Dox 6 mo) and her niece (Hayden 7), loves to garden, enjoys cooking with her kids, and loves working on the homestead with her Husband Darson.
