About Camilla
Camilla Baca first began her training as a midwife apprentice from 2000-2003. During this time, she furthered her professional development with the Hygeia Home Study Midwifery course and worked in correspondence with Jeanne Parvati Baker from 2001-2006. Camilla’s own childbirth experiences have informed her role as a birth worker.
Her son was born at home with the assistance of a midwife in 1999, and her daughter was born at home in 2002.
Since then, Camilla has attended and assisted with a variety of complex births, including VBAC, cesarean, forceps, and multiple presentations. Camilla has 21 years of experience and is committed to her ongoing education in this field.
“Birth is not only about making babies. Birth is about making mothers — strong, competent, capable mothers who trust themselves and know their inner strength. ”
