About Me

Midwife Gelena

Gelena Hinkley is a professional midwife who studied under the tutelage of renowned Midwife, Shari Daniels, at the International School of Midwifery in Miami. It is there that Gelena completed the Direct-Entry Midwifery program. Gelena is a Licensed Midwife (LM) by the Florida Department of Health and certified as a Professional Midwife (CPM). She also has continued her studies in herbalism and has completed several certificates as an herbalist.

She is also the owner and creator of Midwife 101, an online childbirth class series and co-owner of Natural BirthWorks, a birthing center. Gelena puts a high priority on educating her expectant mothers (and partners) about the natural labor process and caring for baby after the birth. Aside from her love of midwifery, Gelena also enjoys helping moms learn simple ways to live and stay as earth-friendly as possible. Her love for nature allows herself, her husband, and her children to live a simple, healthy and green lifestyle. “My goal is to provide the best care for expecting mothers so they can experience a peaceful and natural birth with the help of a midwife in the comfort of their own home. My philosophy is built around three elements: nurturing, educating and empowering families. I believe and embrace the process of pregnancy, labor, and birth as a women’s rite of passage. P³ is here to nurture families through pregnancy, birth, and the early years. I strive to ensure future parents are aware of all of their birthing options, and the importance of the natural progress of labor.”
