Jessica Baynes, CPM, LM, has joined the staff at Embrace Midwifery Care & Birth Center as a midwife. She is a graduate of the Florida School of Traditional Midwifery, a MEAC midwifery school, and completed her clinical training at one of the oldest and most respected birth centers in Florida. Originally from the Chesapeake area, Baynes is looking forward to exploring RVA.

       Embrace is RVA’s oldest freestanding birth center, with birth tubs big enough for two. Their licensed midwives offer comprehensive, evidence-based prenatal and postpartum care, in addition to labor and delivery in their beautiful birth suites or at home. The full-spectrum care team includes nurse midwives for well-woman care and birth control, IBCLC for breastfeeding support, functional medicine for holistic health and more.
