We take birth very
seriously. It is a
rite a passage for women
and by going through the
trials of labor and
birth, a woman becomes a
MOTHER. We are
honored to support
families as they
experience one the most
beautiful things on
earth...childbirth.
Amber Clarkson is
licensed by the state of
Texas. She is also
certified by the North
American Registry of
Midwives as a Certified
Professional Midwife or
CPM. Amber
operates the center in
New Braunfels and is
eager to see midwifery
grow in Central Texas.
She is also active in
the local La Leche
League group and
provides breastfeeding
support and education to
new mothers. It is
her personal goal to
serve her clients and
make each birth special
for each family.
Utmost, you will have
the birth that you
desire because Amber
Clarkson will go to
distance to support
women in choosing where
and how to give
birth...It is your
choice!
On a personal
note, Amber married her
childhood sweetheart and
together they have 4
beautiful children.
They made the transition
to homebirth in 2001
when their son was born
in a pool in the
kitchen. This
birth was life changing
and today she continues
to help families have
the birth of their
dreams, just like she
did. You will hear
a positive reflection on
motherhood from Amber
because she loves
pregnancy, childbirth,
breastfeeding, and
childrearing. She
is a Christian and
believes strongly that
God gives us the
opportunities to
experience birth for a
very specific
reason...to make us
better mommies.
You will be honored and
respected here and your
wishes will be heard.
Salli Gonzales
began helping women
years ago as a doula.
A doula is someone that
helps women as a labor
assistant in the
hospital. I cannot say enough to honor this amazing person.
Salli is the most caring woman I have ever known. Her caring
spirit and her generosity towards others is evident in all that she
does. Her profound confidence in birth and the female body is
like an epidemic-it spreads. She believes in her clients and by
the time it's said and done, they do too!
She is an important part of this birth team. We
could never do it without her!!
Salli is the mother of 6 children. She's
been there!
She is
also a certified doula,
an apprentice midwife, an ATM
student,
and the childbirth educator at the
Family Birth Center.
She is a true blessing to be around.
And NEW at the Family Birth Center!!
Kari Sanders is our new apprentice. She is
fun and upbeat and brings so much experience to the team. She is
the mother of 11 children....more on Kari coming soon!
