My name is Marisol Rosales. I am a wife and mother to four beautiful children- two boys and two girls. When I was a freshman in college, I found out I was pregnant with my first child. I had no clue what to do or where to go. Fortunately, I am a very resourceful person, so I found prenatal care at Davis Community Clinic. At the clinic, midwives were delivering the prenatal care. I didn’t even know what a midwife was, but as soon as my first appointment I fell in love with the care that she provided. She educated me in the process, and I know there is no other way to receive care than the midwifery model of care! The intimate and personal care she provided left me in awe. Ever since then, I have been fascinated with pregnancy. I became a Doula, Childbirth Educator and Midwife Assistant. I have been serving my community on and off for 14 years as I grow my own family. When speaking to my mom about my passion for helping women and families she told me my great grandmother was a partera in Mexico. From that day, I know I am ancestrally called to do this work.
