Young, Miquilaue: - Miquilaue Young is wife to James and homeschooling mother to seven creative and energetic children. She has been blessed to have had six wonderful homebirths and loves to share about her beautiful birth experiences. She knew from a very young age that she wanted to follow in the footsteps of her ancestors and have a midwife journey alongside her during pregnancy and childbirth. She feels called to normalize homebirths within the African American community. She has always been a lover of natural holistic wellness and aspires to educate, encourage, and empower women who may be considering a homebirth. She is grateful to her Heavenly Father for giving her the opportunity to share her passion. She is originally from California and has a Bachelor of Social Work from Azusa Pacific University in Azusa, California, and a master's degree in African American Studies from UCLA in Los Angeles, California. She currently resides in Ferguson, Missouri.
