HOME BIRTH MIDWIVES SERVING NORTHERN VIRGINIA & THE SHENANDOAH VALLEY
Two midwives. Decades of wisdom. Care that feels like family.
At Ten Moons Midwifery, we bring together decades of experience, traditional midwifery wisdom, and advanced clinical training to offer thoughtful, relationship-based home birth care. From Northern Virginia to the Shenandoah Valley, we're here to help you feel informed, confident, and genuinely cared for throughout your pregnancy, birth, and beyond.
We're Aimee and Desiree, the midwives behind Ten Moons Midwifery.
We've been attending births since the 1990s, but our story together began nearly 20 years ago when we were working side by side as apprentice midwives. In 2009, we officially founded Ten Moons, and we've been doing what we love together ever since.
Over the years, we've each followed our own paths, gaining new experiences, continuing our education, and bringing different strengths to our partnership. But what has always brought us together is our shared love for this work and the relationships we build with the families in our care. We believe there's something really special about having the time to get to know one another, ask questions, share a laugh, and build genuine trust along the way.
Who Are You?
The families who find their way to us often share a desire for something a little different when it comes to pregnancy and birth. They value being involved in their care, having the freedom to ask questions, and making thoughtful decisions about what's best for themselves and their babies.
Maybe you've always known home birth was right for you, or perhaps you're exploring it for the first time. Either way, you're looking for more than someone to simply oversee your pregnancy and attend your birth. You want to know your midwives, trust their experience, and feel comfortable enough to be completely yourself around them.
That's the kind of relationship-based care we believe in at Ten Moons. Through our home birth midwifery, holistic gynecology, and lactation consulting services, we take the time to get to know you, listen to what matters most, and make room for the conversations that don't always fit neatly into an appointment.

From the very beginning, they made sure I felt seen, heard, and supported. Every question I had was answered with care, and every anxiety was eased with their reassurance. For the first time, I genuinely looked forward to my prenatal visits.
Now, even weeks later, I’m still in awe of my birth story—surrounded by my family, guided by Desiree and Aimee, and filled with peace and empowerment. They gave me a gift I will cherish forever.
