Bio

✨ Mother | Midwife | Storyteller |
Black Maternal-Infant Health Advocate | Hobby Genealogist ✨

My name is Paige Y. Jackson and midwifery is in my blood. Literally! My maternal great-great-grandmother, Hennritta Harris was a traditional midwife who practiced in Central Arkansas for 30+ years. Growing up hearing of her life and the lives of other Grand Midwives who journeyed this road before me, it became a mission to tell the stories so that the history nor the art of Black Midwifery would ever be lost.

Certified Nursing Assistant | I was a hospital CNA for 10 years serving in the areas of Labor/Delivery, Mother/Baby, as well as PICU & NICU.
